Castletown, County Wexford hosts ‘The GAA Show’
This week The GAA Show comes from Castletown in County Wexford, the home of the current Wexford county football champions. The cup which has been presented to the winners of the All Ireland club football championship since 1974 is named in honour of former Castletown and Wexford footballer Andy Merrigan.
The Model County face Dublin in Sunday’s Leinster football final. Manager Jason Ryan hopes his side have learned lessons from their 23 point hammering by the same opposition in the 2008 decider. Ryan has also called for consistency from match referee Joe McQuillan.
As Laois and Kildare gear up for the pick of the round two football qualifiers John Doyle talks to Sinéad Kissane. How will the Lilywhites regroup and recover from their controversial Leinster semi final defeat to Dublin?
As Waterford and Tipperary get set to face each other in the Munster hurling final we look back on their 2002 clash in the Video Vault. The leader board in Panel Beaters is really close as things stand; will the pressure start to tell as the ‘experts’ give their predictions for the weekend’s games? There’ll be all the news from Around the Counties and a look back on last week’s action in Championship Rewind.
The GAA Show is on Friday evening at 18.30 on 3e and late night on TV3.
