Galway bring belief into All-Ireland final showdown with Kerry

Over at Indo Sport, we’ve just wrapped up week three of our brand new podcast, which you can find in all the usual podcast places. Each day, Joe Molloy and the wider Irish Independent team will be bringing you the main news and views across the world of sport, but also plenty of in-depth items as well. This past week, we welcomed hurling legend Joe Canning to studio for a feature interview.
 
Beyond his prodigious rise with Portumna and stellar on-field career with Galway, we delved into lots more outside the sporting arena - from the pain of grief to the joy of parenthood, and plenty else besides.

Indo Sport Special: The Joe Canning Interview

All-Ireland winners Aoife Lynskey from Galway and Gemma O'Connor from Cork joined Shane Brennan to give their views on what could be the difference in this weekend's Camogie final

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

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.
