  • Pat Spillane

    In an 1.5 pod, you listen to Pat Spillane talk about himself for 55 plus minutes instead of the current players. Is there a man who loves to talk about himself more?

  • Anti Dublin bias

    How come Kerry got such extensive discussion and Dublin not mentioned at all, bar an oblique reference. If you’re claiming to provide full coverage of football then provide it. Thank you

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Austin Gleeson: Pub spies, hard winters and my favourite goal | Extended interview
Q: Who was his hero as a kid and what's his greatest ever personal moment in Hurling?
His hero was a local figure in his club and county, and his personal moment was the momentous month of the final on 21 in Welsh Park, a game that felt monumental due to the atmosphere and pressure.
Austin Gleeson: Pub spies, hard winters and my favourite goal | Extended interview
Q: If Derek McGrath had taken over Waterford for 2027, how would that, what would have happened there?
He admits uncertainty about the hypothetical, acknowledging Derek's abilities and the complex dynamics of team leadership and policy, but suggests that the outcome would hinge on leadership style and fit with players rather than any single coach.
Over-analysing on video | The five fastest hurlers of all-time | Mullane’s quiz
Q: Pat, how many All-Ireland wins have Borr[o]wer? (Borrower)
The hosts discuss approximate counts and nominations during the quiz, indicating that the exact numbers are debated and adjusted in real time, reflecting the competitive nature of All-Stars and county histories.
Over-analysing on video | The five fastest hurlers of all-time | Mullane’s quiz
Q: Austin Gleeson won the Monster Under-21 titles in 2016. Who did they beat in the final?
The question was posed during the quiz and Pat and Mullane proceeded to discuss potential opponents as part of the game, with the host prompting for the correct county but the transcript shows the exchange as part of a live quiz rather than a clean Q&A transcript.
‘We haven’t mimicked the football’ | John Meyler on the proposed rule changes and hurling's future
Q: What are the goals for puck-outs and ball movement after a score?
The aim is to prevent immediate, overextended movements from goalkeepers and wings that bypass the contest for the ball, while ensuring there is still a fair and engaging return of play with strategic puck-outs that promote 1v1 or small-team battles.
