This week on Sport Lárige with Seamus Barry on WLR: a Waterford great retires, equality in Gaelic games, and a Déise man takes over Cavan.

Austin Gleeson looks back on his inter-county career with Waterford, from the 2016 All-Star and Hurler of the Year double to that 2017 goal at Croke Park.

With Mary McAleese stepping down from the integration committee, Suzanne Parker and Darren Shannon Ball talk about the gap in funding and facilities for camogie and ladies' football. 

And Waterford native Joe Baldwin, new Cavan senior hurling manager, talks about Fermanagh, his recovery from a stroke, and chasing Cavan's first Lory Meagher.

This week on Sport Lárige with Seamus Barry on WLR: championship football, the Blues and a week of history at Doonbeg.

Rathgormack manager Kenny Hassett reflects on a 3-22 to 1-5 opening win and the hard switch from hurling to football for a dual club, while Seamie Cullinane explains Gaultier's second-half transformation against Kilrossanty — Sean White off the bench and JJ Hutchinson leading the way.

Graham Coughlan looks back on the 1-1 draw with Dundalk at the RSC, chances created and spurned, and a 12-game unbeaten run — Waterford's best since 2009 — with Derry City up next.

And Ray Scott brings us to Doonbeg, where Shane Lowry won the Amgen Irish Open by a record 11 shots at 23 under, with a preview of the Blues' big Monday night.

This week on Sport Lárige on WLR, we’re celebrating Irish sport at its best.

I’m joined by eight-time Irish elite champion and St Paul’s head coach Neil Goff, who was in Croke Park for Katie Taylor’s historic farewell fight. We relive the ring walk, the atmosphere, and the final bell – and ask what still makes her different at 40: footwork, composure, and that trademark 10‑second push to the finish.

We then turn to Waterford FC, as Matt Keane breaks down the club’s resurgence under Graham Coughlan – the bond in the dressing room, the impact of leaders like Kevin Long and John Martin, and why this group feels built to handle pressure in both league and cup.

And with the Irish Open at Doonbeg teeing off on Thursday, Ray Scott joins us to preview one of golf’s great weeks: links golf on the Atlantic, a stacked field with Rory McIlroy, Shane Lowry, Seamus Power and more, and what makes Irish fans and courses so special on the world stage.
