  • Hurling: Barry Nash’s absence felt as Cork stall Limerick’s drive for five
    Jul 8 2024
    It will be a Cork v Clare All-Ireland final, and the Throw-In’s regular trio of John Mullane, Eddie Brennan and Michael Verney teamed up to break down how each team made it over the line. Limerick’s drive for five stalled after a thriller with the Rebels - John asks if they were too slow to make the changes needed to keep pace with a Cork team who have the right pieces coming together at the right time. Meanwhile, Clare’s 16th man made their presence known as Kilkenny were toppled on Saturday, Eddie remarks that free-taking made the difference here. Elsewhere, the quality of hurling is such that we need more of it - will the GAA give it to us?

Elsewhere, the pressure is on Clare to realise their potential and knock off a Kilkenny side who yearn for All-Ireland success.

  • Football: Mayo find a new way to lose; Ger Brennan Manager of the Year?
    Jun 25 2024
    Frank Roche and Dick Clerkin joined Will Slattery in the wake of an All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final round that saw Mayo crash out, Roscommon surprise and Louth make history. Dick breaks down what he sees as Mayo’s true undoing - not scoring enough before half-time, and he believes that the county can’t have too many complaints after a disappointing end to their season on penalties. Frank witnessed Roscommon shock Tyrone at the weekend, and he recounts why their first half was one of the finest displays in county history as Tyrone joined Mayo in the exit pile. Meanwhile, Derry could be Kerry’s undoing, the lads aren’t betting much on Armagh, and is Louth boss Ger Brennan worthy of winning Manager of the Year?
