Dick Clerkin and Frank Roche join Will Slattery on this week’s Throw-In Football show after the not-so-thunderous start to this year’s championship.

The 2024 Championship kicked off over the weekend, but low attendances and public attention means the conversation around the fixtures calendar continues to spark debate - with Dick stating that situations some counties are forced into is ‘not good enough’.

Meanwhile, ahead of their Leinster championship meeting with old rivals Dublin, Frank assesses whether Meath can pose a challenge in Croke Park, and the panel also discuss whether Kildare can hold up their end of the bargain and set up a semi-final against Louth.
