The round robin Leinster GAA & Munster GAA / Comhairle na Mumhan hurling is really working - top 2 qualify for Provincial Final , 3rd. team goes through , rest gone. But, round robin in football qualifiers,not so. 3 out of 4 qualifying is ridiculous & attendances reflect that !

Really enjoyed a really great Leinster GAA hurling championship game at a packed Nowlan Park. Both Kilkenny GAA & Wexford GAA will improve a lot after today’s experience. Neither will be beaten easily. Was honoured to meet legends LeeChin, Hugh Lalor et al. Heroes all . 🦸

That was a really cracking The Camogie Association game at The Ragg today #TippVWaterford . Well done to both teams for making light of the dreadful conditions in serving up a thrilling game! Tipperary camogie Waterford Camogie .👏👏

Canvassing in #Thurles , came across this great man , Fr. Mike , once a veterinary surgeon, now a priest in America. As Buff Egan might say, Hail, hail, Father!

The Two State Solution is the only viable and credible way of achieving peace.

The circle of violence must end and it is clear that Prime Minister Netanyahu has no sustainable plan beyond that of the immediate military incursion.

Ireland stands for peace in the region.

Got Off The Ball going home from Limerick last night. Didn’t know who was doing the analysis but he was truly brilliant- a kind of a professor of #hurling ! It turned out to be Richie Hogan Kilkenny GAA & Danesfort GAA & Camogie Club legend ! NewstalkFM
