Just listened to the first 3 podcasts and they were very informative. There appears to be lots of work going on with both primary schools and 1st and 2nd year in secondary schools. Posters on here have been crying out for this kind of thing to be happening in schools for a long time.
Jaysus some of ye are just bitter having a snipe at the podcast. It's 30 minutes long FFS. In fairness their contact numbers are there and Keegan said himself you can call him if you have any feedback - good or bad.
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That's real glory. VinceLombardi

You must be joking? none of these lads would ever dream of calling up someone and discussing an issue, not when you can just take a cut off them on a faceless messaging forum. Lifes easier that way for them.

Does the episode break the exclusive of our games manager heading to the yellow bellies?

Ogie

Good piece in the Examiner I think this week about the GAA's own staff taking on coaching jobs in other counties, Jack Cooney, Dermot McCabe, Pat O Shea and many more
So it has been done before

But .. Does'nt sit right

See Keegan is running coaching workshops down in Wexford now. Independent money spinner but further adds to the bad optics.

How do Laois GAA sit by idly and think this is ok?
