Match-ups will be key in Galway's mission to dethrone Cork

Former Galway captain Tracey Leonard and Kerry-based journalist Dan Kearney joined Shane Brennan to look ahead to this weekend's  All-Ireland Senior Ladies Football Championship Final between Galway and Kerry.

Galway bring belief into All-Ireland final showdown with Kerry

Armagh are All-Ireland champions, a victory our panel regard as one of the greatest managerial feats in football history. 

On this week’s Sam Magure decider review, Will Slattery was joined by Dick Clerkin and Conor McKeon to break down what Armagh did right in a season where they had a unique opportunity to win silverware and took it, why Shane Walsh does not deserve the harsh reaction, and on what the key difference was in the final - Galway had the ball, but Armagh had control.

We’d like to say a big thank you to everyone who has listened, followed and engaged with us over the course of the season. Be sure to keep an eye on the Irish Independent app, social channels and podcast feeds for more Gaelic football content later throughout the year.
