Clare – and not Waterford - have proven themselves to be the most likely challengers to Limerick in Munster this year and what a Munster final we will have in store between those two teams.

But what about Waterford?  Defeat to Cork has left their season hanging by a thread – where has it all gone wrong?

John Mullane and the Irish Independent’s, Michael Verney, join Sinéad Kissane on this week’s Throw-In to look back on all the hurling action, including ‘selfie-gate’ where Mullane has been highly critical of the Dublin hurlers laughing and joking and having selfies taken after their 17-point defeat to Kilkenny in Parnell Park.

Ciarán Whelan is also on the show to discuss the Dubs’ dismantling of Meath and why he misses the old rivalry, plus Derry’s Ulster run and Limerick beat Tipperary even in the football to reach their own Munster final.

Every Monday the Throw-In brings you the best insights and analysis from all the weekend GAA action.

And don’t forget to listen to Philly McMahon’s show every Friday where he gives his take on
the Football Championship.
