It's been an action packed few weeks since our last show with the European U19 Championships been and gone, Shamrock Rovers secured their first senior final with a 2-1 win over Shelbourne last night while Holders Galway took penalties to ease past Wexford.

Elsewhere we have a full set of league fixtures this weekend as Athlone visit Peamount to try and tighten their hold on top spot. Second placed Shelbourne host DLR Waves as Wexford and Cork make the trips to Limerick and Tallaght to attempt to keep in touch with the top sides.

Breifne Earley & Aaron Clarke discuss all the happenings at home and abroad as well as some of the transfer rumours circulating around the league in recent days.

It's a slightly somber show this week after the broadcast of the 'Girls in Green' documentary on Sunday. After a two year investigation by journalists Marie Crowe (RTE Investigates) and Mark Tighe (Sunday Independent), horrific allegations of inappropriate behaviour within the inaugural FAI Women's FAS course in Leixlip in the 1990's have been levelled at a number of coaches involved in that course.

Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke share their thoughts on the documentary, the allegations and what it means for the future of the women's game and some of the steps now needed to ensure events like this can not happen again in the sport.

There was also the small matter of some football played this week with big 1-0 wins for Bohemians and Cork City over Galway United and Peamount United respectively. Athlone stretched their lead at the top of the league while Shamrock Rovers continued their resurrence with a solid 3-1 win in Limerick.

The focus turns to the WNT clashes with England and France and the U19 European Championships over the coming weeks.

At home this weekend, DLR Waves host Treaty United and Bohemians visit Turner's Cross in what all camps will see as winnable games.
