I thought Micahel Duignan was very biased and offaly blinkered in his opinion on the relegation/promotion to the Leinster hurling championship. His remark about Antrim and Galway making up 2 of the 5 counties next year was petty. Would it not be a huge boost for hurling in the north if Antrim got 2 home games next year with the likes of Wexford, KK, Galway travelling up there. For what its worth the Leinster Champinship is only Leinster in name since Galway joined it. If Antriim should be good enough to win the McDonagh cup thne it would be great to see them in the LHC.

It's a waste of time talking to managers after a game. "Breaks didn't go our way, look they're a good team, look we've a lot of work to do". Horseshit.

+1.

Joe Canning gave a great, honest interview to Vincent Hogan before the Tipp match last year, when he gave the performance that won him hurler of the year. The interview won awards and Galway won the All-Ireland but players still live in terror of saying anything interesting to the media.

Probably, but why isn't there straight relegation if Kerry win it? I'd say that's where he might be coming from.

Same old. Very short highlights of Tyrone v Monaghan followed by analysis 2 or 3 times as long. Pat went to great lengths to emphasise that it was a great game when they could have just been showing us that it was a great game. They only showed Mc Manus' wonder point during the analysis.

Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Pat went into a rant about the state of the championship afterwards which we all knew about a long time ago. Whelo says smaller counties should 'buck up'.

You have to love the "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche" attitude from Whelo.

Let me guess Pats rant lasted longer than the highlights of those two games?

No McDonagh or Ring results given!!!!

Give both those competitions to TG4/Eirsport and watch them flourish.

As for a tiered football competition, RTE would treat it with disdain.

Yep. Only the Senior championship matters for RTÉ.
