Meath and Derry fall in behind on six while Louth sit on four in fourth spot.The Rebels' next game against Derry in Celtic Park (1pm) this Sunday is now a huge match. The Ulster side, like Cork, are on a winning streak. They have beaten their last three opponents.We discuss Cork's top two aspirations heading into the final three games.The hurlers and LGFA team are hoping to keep their form going this weekend too against Kilkenny and Waterford respectively.The camogie team lost to Antrim and are at the other end of the spectrum while we also talk about Jack Crowley's super game as Ireland beat England in Twickenham.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

The good times keep on rolling for the Rebels, after a brilliant and nail-biting victory over Meath at Páirc Uí Rinn on Sunday.It means John Cleary's side are in pole position for promotion from Division 2, 10 years after falling out of the top flight. It was the footballers' fourth win on the bounce and against one of their rivals to go up, which could prove crucial if head-to-head standings come into play.Most importantly, it was a game in which Cork coped with the weight of expectation, in front of a crowd of over 6,000, and despite losing captain Ian Maguire to a red card in the last quarter.Now they needed a few last-ditch tackles, from Daniel O'Mahony, Seán Meehan and Luke Fahy, in the last play, to deny Meath a match-winning goal.Chris Óg Jones hit the net and led the scoring but rookie Dara Sheedy, Mark Cronin, Seán McDonnell and Steven Sherlock all chipped in as well. The Cork forward line is looking the most balanced it has for quite some time, especially when you consider Brian Hurley was injured.Cork's mettle will be fully tested up in Derry next Sunday though, as the Ulster side have been on song since a surprise loss in their opening game. They still have Kildare at home before finishing the campaign away to Tyrone and just one win could be enough to secure a top-two finish.The big thing is Cork now have genuine momentum and got the public behind them. That could be significant come championship.On the ladies football front, Cork are also unbeaten. They beat Kerry on the road and take on Waterford next weekend in a battle of the table-toppers. Emma Cleary is captaining Joe Carroll's side, who have adapted well on their return to Division 1.The hurlers had a couple of weekends off but return with a bang to start March, as Ben O'Connor's charge are away to Kilkenny and then six days later go to Limerick, who blew Tipp away in Thurles.A victory in Nowlan Park would near guarantee a league final appearance, given Cork have Offaly at home to come. It looks like Cork and Limerick are on a collision course.Now in its fourth season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by We Are Meath podcast host Davy Rispin to preview the big top of the table clash in Division 2 in Pairc Ui Rinn this Sunday (2pm).John Cleary's Cork are after three league wins in a row for the first time in the top two divisions since 2014 after beating Offaly in Tullamore (3-15 to 0-19).Meath are on a three game winning streak too after seeing off Derry, Cavan and Louth in recent weeks with midfielder Jack Flynn getting winning two-pointers in two of those matches.The Royals are All-Ireland semi-finalists from 2025 so the county is on a high.The feeling is whoever wins this game will put themselves in a great position for promotion.Also on the show, we are joined by Tony Hughes from Access Credit Union to talk about his interest in pickleball.Hughes represented Ireland at the 2025 European Pickleball Championships in Rome and is hoping it's a sport that can catch on in West Cork.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

The only way is up for the Cork footballers... The Echo Podcast looks at the Rebels' terrific start to the league after a third successive league victory leaves them in a strong position to gain promotion back to Division 1, bridging an 11-year gap.John Cleary's side were heavy favourites in Tullamore but haven't always handled that tag well, which allied to their inconsistency in recent years, meant the trip to Offaly was loaded with danger.A brilliant first half was crucial to the result, with Cork leading by nine points at the break, thanks in no small part to a Colm O'Callaghan brace of goals from midfield.A third green flag raised by Mark Cronin in the third quarter effectively sealed it but the hosts, despite being against the wind in the second half, battled until the end and had the gap down to five points at the finish.Ultimately, the result was all that mattered and it was never in doubt.Cork are at home to Meath in Páirc Uí Rinn next where a victory would be huge given the Royals are also unbeaten with three wins on the board.With genuine momentum, having won the McGrath Cup on Kerry turf in January, it's time for the supporters to get out in force for the Meath clash. The footballers deserve and need their backing.There's also a look back at the Sigerson Cup final where missed goal chances cost UCC though a handful of Leesiders in UL colours did collect the cup at Croke Park.On the hurling front, with the hurlers off until March 1, the podcast crew discuss the trends from the first three games, who from the extended squad deserves a go in the remaining matches and whether Ben O'Connor will continue to go all-in at every interview.His fiery approach is delighting the national media while also taking the heat off the Cork players who are still trying to escape the shadow of last year's All-Ireland final nightmare.Plus, after an excellent showing for UL in the Fitzgibbon Cup final where he was in contention for Man of the Match, is Jack Leahy hard done by not to be in the Cork hurling squad?Now in its fourth season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

ON THIS week's podcast, Star Sport columnist and former Cork footballer John Hayes to talk about Cork's opening two National Football League wins.John Cleary's side have seen off Cavan and Louth so far and sit top of Division 2.This is the first time the Rebels have won their opening two games in the top two divisions since 2015, which is progress.Cork were comfortable winners away in Drogheda as they defeated Louth 1-17 to 1-12.Hayes gives his thoughts on how the league is going so far.Also on the show, we discuss wins for the hurlers and LGFA team.Ben O'Connor's hurlers beat Galway 2-20 to 1-21 to go second in Division 1A while Joe Carroll's LGFA team beat Galway 1-10 to 2-5 to rise to second in Division 1.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

Two from two again as the hurlers survived a snarling battle with Galway in Salthill while the footballers beat the Leinster champions Louth on the road.The Echo Sport Podcast crew reflect on a brilliant weekend for the Rebels, particularly the footballers who made it back to back wins in their opening two Division 2 games for the first time. They'd lost twice in recent years in the league in Louth, along with an All-Ireland qualifier exit, so this was a significant result which puts John Cleary's side in a strong position for promotion.Having Steven Sherlock up front along with Brian Hurley, Mark Cronin and goal-scorer Chris Óg Jones gives Cork a balanced scoring threat up front and storming into an eight-point lead at half-time put the visitors in control.They've now got a weekend off before visiting Offaly and they're at home to Meath at the end of the month. If they can build on this momentum they'll be well set before trips to Derry and Tyrone in March.Most importantly they'll get the Cork public back behind them if they can put a winning streak together and we saw how crucial the crowd was to their late rally in the opening round victory over Cavan in the Páirc.The hurlers up against a fired-up Galway who made all the early running on Saturday night. Down seven points and way well the mark in terms of intensity, Cork showed a lot of experience and character to turn it around at Pearse Stadium.They hurled on the edge at times but were far more clinical than the Tribe and were able to get through for goal chances in the second half with Brian Hayes finishing two of them. The introduction of Hayes and Tim O'Mahony added heft but also showed how seriously Ben O'Connor and his management team are taking the league.They'll certainly be fully tuned in on Saturday night in front of 25,000 at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh for an All-Ireland final rematch against Tipp, who have also won their first two league matches. It'll be the Rebels' third game in 13 days and while the mid-April Munster championship meeting is the priority, Cork won't want to give any quarter here.With a gap of three weeks until an away game with Kilkenny, victory this weekend would put defending champions Cork in a strong position to return to the league final.Now in its fourth season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

ON THIS week's podcast, we welcome new Cork LGFA captain Emma Cleary onto the show to talk about her new role.Cork got their Lidl LGFA League Division 1 off to a start with a 1-10 to 2-7 draw against Kildare in MTU Sports Grounds.Joe Carroll's team are a newly promoted side having achieved promotion from Division 2 in 2025.Cleary won the Cork club championship with Éire Óg during the winter and will be hoping to show her leadership qualities in the county season.We also touch on the Cork footballers and their winning start to Division 2 of the National Football League against Cavan (0-24 to 2-17). A Steven Sherlock late two-pointer free was enough to see off a Cavan side who were seven points up with 12 minutes to play.John Cleary's side face Louth in Drogheda this Sunday (1.30pm).As for Ben O'Connor's hurlers, they romped to victory over Waterford (3-25 to 1-17).They will travel up to Galway this Saturday (7pm) for the second round of Division 1A.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

The Echo Podcast crew return just in time for the throw-in of the national hurling and football leagues.Cork footballers take on Cavan before the hurlers host Waterford in an attractive double-header in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh, where both teams need a winning start to the campaign.John Cleary's charges got a boost with a first competitive victory in Killarney since 1995 over Kerry, albeit in the McGrath Cup final, which won't be causing the old enemy to lose any sleep.Still, late points from Brian Hurley and Chris Óg Jones gave the Rebels the narrowest of victories in a game where the contentious new rules that lead to frees being advanced 50 metres worked in their favour.Cork have been in the lower leagues since 2016 and haven't really looked like returning, largely down to slow starts to the season. With four away games, they'll need to pick up points on home turf.Clearly and his management team are vastly experienced at this stage but the vibes are more positive at this stage than they were last year, with a decent blend of youth and experience.The hurlers won't be prioritising the secondary competition after ending a 27-year wait for silverware last term but Ben O'Connor will be eager to get wins on the board early to allow them to look at their options in the coming weeks. The new bainisteoir has already stated there won't be radical change but tactically there will be tweaks from the long-ball style of last year.It's a hectic time of year, with UCC and MTU Cork, who have impressed to date, busy with the Fitzgibbon Cup.There's a look at the form of both Cork teams in preseason, as well as a breakdown of the recent Fitzgibbon and Sigerson action and the Corn Uí Mhuirí and Harty matches.There's a discussion of the appointment of Ian Maguire and Darragh Fitzgibbon as Cork captains, replacing Brian Hurley and Rob Downey. Plus they flag up the young players to watch in the coming weeks and examine the prospects of the rookies who are on the hurling and football squads.Now in its fourth season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

Canada loses its gold star for measles elimination. A doctor in Alberta tells us how that happened, and what has to happen now to keep one of the world's most infectious diseases under control. Donald Trump has welcomed Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa at the White House -- and our guest says it's one of the most significant moments in his country's history. As the November skies turn gloomy, we'll remember the nautical disaster that spawned a Canadian classic -- with the daughter of the man who immortalized it. 55 years after he was shot by the National Guard at Kent State University, John Cleary has died. A fellow survivor tells us what she wants people to remember about that day...and about her friend. The husband-and-wife team behind a West Chezzetcook, Nova Scotia food truck get their minds deep-fried when a mystery order comes in from three thousand kilometers away. A photograph of a chic young man wearing a fedora outside the recently-burgled Louvre sparks feverish speculation -- until he's revealed to be none other than...a chic young man standing around outside the Louvre in a fedora. As It Happens, the Monday Edition. Radio that considers this case clothed.
Newcestown shook up the Premier Senior Football Championship in Cork after beating three-in-a-row chasing Castlehaven in the last group game.Jim O'Sullivan's side secured their first victory over the Haven at senior level with a strong finish as Tadhg Twomey and David Buckley shared 0-10 between them. It means Newcestown now face Carrigaline for a place in the semi-finals while Castlehaven must get past their great rivals St Finbarr's.Two from Newcestown, Carrigaline, Duhallow and Ballincollig will be in the last four, though Nemo Rangers were the big winners over the weekend as their hammering of St Michael's granted them top seed on scoring difference.The Barrs shot the lights out themselves on Sunday with the major news afterward that ace marksman Steven Sherlock will rejoin the Cork panel for 2026, having opted out this season. Sherlock only started two of Cork's 13 games in his last year in Rebel red but will surely be a key figure for John Cleary's side now he's back, especially as his kicking ability is well suited to the new rules.He even landed a two-point sideline at Páirc Uí Rinn against Carrigaline.Nemo's marquee forward Mark Cronin grabbed 1-7 against Michael's and it'll be interesting to see him link up with Sherlock next season.Another brilliant forward Cathail O'Mahony grabbed 1-6 for Mitchelstown at Intermediate A level in a winner-takes-all derby with Kildorrery. Kiskeam qualified to the PIFC quarter-final after just their first championship win in two years against Castletownbere.St Nick's powered straight into the Premier Junior semis after finishing the group stages with eight goals scored and none conceded, though Buttevant are the team to beat in that grade.There were plenty of contenders for Club Footballer of the Weekend, including Kiskeam's David Scannell, Newcestown's Tadhg Twomey, Éire Óg keeper Chris Kelly made some big saves and kicked 0-5, and Aghabullogue's Luke Casey. He clipped 1-4 from play against Aghada, less than 24 hours after helping Coachford soccer team to a victory over Ringmahon Rangers at Turner's Cross.It's a huge weekend on the club hurling front and we pick out the matches to catch in the various grades.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast.

Just like the hurlers, the Cork camogie team couldn't add the All-Ireland to their haul of Munster and league titles this season.They also missed a penalty and were reduced to 14 at Croke Park but Ger Manley's side gave a far better performance on the big stage, reflecting the fact they were a puck of a sliotar away from three in a row.We break down the loss to Galway, from the flat first half to the heroic comeback where they rallied from five points in arrears to level late on. We discuss the controversial refereeing decisions, particularly the push in the back on Amy Lee that wasn't spotted before a first-half point and failure to award a free at the death for a foul on Clodagh Finn.The dismissal of Hannah Looney was hard to argue with but the Tribe repeatedly pulled down Cork's marquee playmaker Saoirse McCarthy.The Rebels had some terrific performers, including Laura Treacy, Libby Coppinger, Ashling Thompson and Laura Hayes but they struggled in the opening period to cope with Galway's intensity and swarm tackling.There was a narrative beforehand that Cork only had to turn up to collect the cup. It was similar to the hype on the hurlers, much of it pushed by those outside the county bounds. What is fuelling the anti-Cork agenda?There's a discussion of the reappointment of John Cleary as Cork football manager. What can he bring to the management team to make the Rebels contenders again? And how will he shake up the squad for 2026?Hurling boss Pat Ryan's future is also up in the air.There's a big preview of the second round of the club championships.Which clubs are under the most pressure? Who can lay down a marker?At Premier Senior level, it'll be Imokilly against Muskerry in the final to decide who joins the clubs in the knockout stages. The champions from East Cork looked the part in sweeping past Avondhu but is their path to the quarter-finals too easy?Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we catch up with Kilbrittain hammer-thrower Nicola Tuthill after a few successful weeks of action.Tuthill is enjoying the most prolific spell of her young career: silver medals at both the European U23 Championships and World University Games.That was followed by a successful defence of her national title last weekend, with a new personal best of 71.75m added in.At only 21 years of age, she is making serious strides.Also on the show, we reflect on the news that John Cleary will be staying on for another two years as Cork senior football manager.The Castlehaven man will be going into his fifth season as Rebels boss in 2026.We look forward to the All-Ireland senior camogie final too as Cork chase the three-in-a-row when they face Galway on Sunday in Croke Park (5.15pm).All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by John Hayes to look back at Cork football's year after John Cleary's team were dumped out of the All-Ireland SFC by Dublin.The game ended 1-19 to 1-16 with the Rebels putting a decent effort but the question now will be on Cleary's future.The Castlehaven man's three-year term as permanent Cork boss is up and it remains to be seen whether he will be offered a new deal.In the meantime, former Cork footballer Hayes chatted to Matthew Hurley about the good and bad this seasonAlso on the show, we found out Cork will face Dublin in the All-Ireland SHC semi-final after the Leinster side shocked Limerick at the weekend.There were also wins for the Cork LGFA and camogie teams.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

The pressure on the Cork hurlers certainly isn't letting up after the dominant force of the modern game was sent crashing out against Dublin. In one of the biggest shocks in the history of hurling, the third-place team in Leinster, 12-1 complete outsiders with the bookies, beat Limerick and did so despite getting a red card after 15 minutes. The stunning reversal means Cork now take on the Dubs on July 5 in the All-Ireland semi-final instead of Tipp, with the expectation now they'll go all the way and finally regain Liam MacCarthy. The podcast crew break down Dublin's victory and discuss how Cork can keep focused for the trip to Croke Park on Saturday week. Tipp take on Kilkenny in the other semi and you can be sure both of those counties are just as thrilled Limerick have been taken out early. On the football front, there's a reflection on the footballers' very strong showing against Dessie Farrell's Dublin that didn't yield the reward it deserved. It was a familiar sceál for the Cork football faithful, a good game against an All-Ireland contender but not a knockout victory. John Cleary's term is now officially ended but he wouldn't say after the loss in Croker if he'd be seeking another season in 2026. There is a shortage of viable replacements but Cleary might not want another year dealing with the stress and expectation on Leeside. There were highs and lows across the past four seasons and a mixed championship record which featured a few very close calls against the bigger guns, especially Kerry. Plus the Echo team pick out the winners and losers after the final round of the Cork football leagues, albeit with Clon v Castlehaven on hold to decide the Division 1 finalists. Walkovers were a disappointing aspect to the concluding weekend, with another round of hurling to go as well. Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

The Cork footballers saved their season with a gritty performance in Portlaoise to beat Roscommon over the weekend but their reward is a very tough preliminary quarter-final against Dublin.While Meath and Armagh have beaten the Boys in Blue already this summer, John Cleary's charges will need to produce a season-best to progress to the last eight.We reflect on the victory over the Rossies which was spearheaded by Colm O'Callaghan, Ian Maguire, Mark Cronin and Seán McDonnell, who kicked 0-4 in a tight game. Keeper Micheál Aodh Martin came up with some big plays as well, saving a goal chance at a critical stage and pushing out a dangerous dropping ball for a 45 in the dying minutes.It was heart-stopping stuff, with Roscommon hunting a two-pointer to knock Cork out as time elapsed as Brian O'Driscoll, Seán Brady and Daniel O'Mahony defended brilliantly.What can they improve on for their Croke Park trip though?Plus we reflect on a disappointing All-Ireland minor hurling semi-final exit for Cork against Clare.Fergal McCormack's side had beaten the Banner en route to a Munster title but a four-week break since that provincial success might have been an issue with Clare far sharper throughout. More tellingly, the underdogs showed greater hunger and work-rate around the middle third.Cork were expected to reach what would only have been the county's third All-Ireland final appearance at the grade in the modern era, with the Rebels winning the title in 2021 and losing the 2017 decider to Galway.Still, there were some excellent performers in red over the course of their six matches and we pick out the young players to watch out for in the coming seasons.Plus there's a look at the local action as the club hurling leagues head towards their conclusion.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we have hurling fever as Cork were crowned Munster SHC winners for the first time since 2018.Pat Ryan's side beat Limerick 1-30 to 2-27 after extra-time (3-2 on penalties) to get the win over their big rivals.We discuss the significance of the win, timekeeping, penalty shoot-outs, the split-season and what is potentially there for this Cork group.Also on the show, we discuss the Cork footballers' crunch tie with Roscommon.John Cleary's side have to win this Saturday in Laois Hire O'Moore Park, Portlaoise (4.15pm), having lost their opening two games to Meath and Kerry.We discuss Beara footballers dropping out of the college/divisional county championship in the past week too.What does this mean for the divisional competition and the Beara division?All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

No one gave them much of a chance beforehand but Cork defied the odds and completed a stunning turnaround from a 16-point beating 20 days earlier to land the Munster title. The majority of Rebels were travelling to Shannonside more in hope than expectation but Pat Ryan had promised his side would make it worth their while with a battling performance and that carried them all the way to a first provincial crown since 2018. We look back on the game itself and the memorable occasion at TUS Gaelic Grounds where both sets of supporters and a ferocious contest led to an electric atmosphere. It was a rollercoaster of emotion across the near 100-minute war before penalties decided it. Limerick had no shortage of regrets, which sums up what an incredible team they've been, going for seven in a row and still leaving everything on the field. Cork hurled outstandingly well in normal time where their sloppy shooting meant it finished level. Then Limerick missed more chances before a Darragh Fitzgibbon deep into added time forced a shootout. We break down the key areas where Cork turned the tide from their humiliating loss in the group game. Subs made a critical impact, with Conor Lehane and Shane Kingston deservedly taking all the plaudits. Limerick haven't gone away of course. They'll be raging favourites to bounce back and beat Dublin or Kildare, and then Kilkenny, to reach the All-Ireland final. Cork have to look after their own house with a month-gap before their semi-final in Croke, most likely against a Tipperary side who feel they owe their rivals. For now, we can enjoy the beautiful feeling of being Munster champs. We also preview Cork's knockout football clash with Roscommon, a 50-50 match where John Cleary's side will be hoping to bring the form they showed against Kerry, rather than in a loss to Meath. Plus a round-up of the club football action and the minors' All-Ireland semi-final exit at the hands of Tyrone. Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

It's back to the scene of the crime on Saturday, when the Cork hurlers must face Limerick in their first Munster final since 2018.Pat Ryan's side were torn apart in the meeting last month when sweet revenge was exacted for last summer to the tune of 16 points. Cork will hardly be as bad again while Limerick were so tuned in across the first half they fired 2-18 from their 25 first-half shots.We discuss where Cork can improve as they bid to end the Treaty's provincial dominance, raging favourites for a seventh title in succession. Will the restoration of Darragh Fitzgibbon to midfield and Shane Barrett to centre-forward make a difference? Or could they shake it up by using Seamus Harnedy or Tim O'Mahony on Kyle Hayes?Can Ciarán Joyce fare better on Cian Lynch than he did three weeks ago? Or would a fully-fit Rob Downey be given the job?What match-ups will go for across the full-back line? Seán O'Donoghue is surely needed for Aaron Gillane.Injuries will be a major factor too. And Cork are really struggling with a busy casualty ward.Limerick had the luxury of resting their marquee men in the last group game. They outmuscled and outsmarted Cork in the last game and it's going to take absolutely everything going right for Downey to pick up the Mick Mackey Cup.The footballers came up short again in their latest clash with Kerry, the 13th defeat in a row across minor, U20 and senior for the Rebels at the hands of their old foe.John Cleary's side performed very well in the first half but were undone by their missed goal chances and not helped by some awfully fussy refereeing around the kick-out mark. Those calls gifted Kerry six points straight after half-time.All is not lost, Cork can beat Roscommon and finish third in the group and reach a preliminary quarter-final. We also reflect on the controversial situation when Castlehaven were able to utilise Cork players Rory Maguire and Conor Cahalane in a league game six days before the Kerry match.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by Paul Bouchier, Sarah Hayes and Paddy Lordan to discuss the rise of GAA in Hamilton High School, Bandon.Bouchier managed the U14B hurlers to county glory, Hayes took the U14A footballers to a county title while Lordan managed the school to a Simcox Cup win and a Corn Uí Mhuirí semi-final.It has been a year of glory for the school and the future looks bright too.Also on the show, we discuss the Cork footballers' loss to Meath in the All-Ireland SFC group stage.John Cleary's side have a big task on their hands in overcoming Kerry this Saturday in Supervalu Páirc Uí Choimh (4.45pm).The hurlers are in the Munster SHC final, albeit in unconvincing circumstances while the camogie time are flying after beating Limerick by 38 points in their first championship game of the year.

Cork are through to their first Munster final since 2018 after bouncing back from the Limerick hammering by beating Waterford on Sunday.It was a patchy performance overall where they impressed more in the first half against the wind than they did with the gale to their backs. Pat Ryan's side won by six points but had 10 more wides than the Déise, so there can no debate about the result, but it certainly wasn't a vintage display.In the great scheme of things, it won't really matter, especially with Limerick coming down the tracks again. What can we take from the performance at a packed Páirc?Ger Millerick's finger injury is a concern as he had superbly slotted in for Niall O'Leary. Diarmuid Healy showed well off the bench though, with Darragh Fitzgibbon and Shane Barrett more impressive when restored to their 2024 positions.Cork will need everyone firing for the Treaty but had the luxury of changing half their line-up for the dead rubber group game with Clare.On the football front, Cork were beaten in a vital All-Ireland group game in Navan. Meath were the better team throughout and only their poor finishing kept John Cleary's side in contention.Do the Rebels now have any chance when they host Kerry on Saturday?They might have left the win behind them in the Munster semi-final but that only means Jack O'Connor will have his side fully focused.Brian Hurley missed the Meath loss through injury but clearly there are deeper issues. With three teams making it out of the round-robin phase, Cork are still in the mix but the omens aren't positive right now.Plus there's a look at the minor footballers' loss in the provincial final in Tralee. Keith Ricken's young guns still have an All-Ireland quarter-final on the horizon but will be underdogs.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are look ahead to Cork's All-Ireland SFC group 2 campaign.John Cleary's charges have been drawn in a group with Kerry, Meath and Roscommon with Cork facing Meath this Saturday in Páirc Tailteann, Navan (3pm).The Rebels came second in the group stage in 2023 and finished in third in 2024, progressing to the knockout stage both times.With Cork having beaten Meath twice in their last two games, this is a huge game to give either side the best possible start after Kerry beat Roscommon last weekend.Also on the show, with Camogie congress on Thursday, May 22nd, we discuss what is likely to happen and hoping the skorts-shorts controversy comes to an end.It wasn't a good weekend for the Cork hurlers last time out after losing heavily to Limerick.We talk about their upcoming crunch clash with Waterford in Supervalu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

Cork footballers are heading for a rematch with Kerry in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh after the draws were made for the All-Ireland group stages.Whatever happens on the June Bank Holiday weekend, or away to the losers of Meath-Louth in the Leinster final and Roscommon, which will be at a neutral venue, Cork football isn't in a very strong position on the basis of recent underage results.On this week's podcast we discuss the state of football on Leeside.Keith Ricken's minors host Kerry this week in the Munster opener, with both counties moving to the semi-final anyway, hoping to fare better than last season's U17 crop. The U20s were outclassed by Kerry in their provincial final and the Rebels have failed to trouble their rivals at all since they last picked up Munster underage silverware.Corn Uí Mhuirí action has highlighted how dominant Kerry are and you have to ask what is being done to arrest the slide? Cork haven't replaced Conor Counihan as Director of Football and given their financial issues are unlikely to do so while the lack of viable options if current senior manager John Cleary moves on at the end of the summer just shows how bleak the situation is.There's also a chat about Limerick's impressive display in beating Waterford away and they clearly mean business despite being surprisingly held to a draw in Thurles last month. The Cork U20 hurlers have improved across the campaign and will the chance to reach the Munster final against a fancied Tipp if they can beat Clare in the Páirc. The Banner beat them in the minor equivalent three years ago.This year's minors face Waterford in the Munster final, having completed the group with four wins from four and looking like very strong All-Ireland contenders.We also look at how the leagues are panning out in hurling and football across the divisions, with the availability of Cork hurling squad players a great reflection of the management team and their positive attitude.Plus a discussion of the Cork camogie and ladies football teams seasons so far and the skort versus shorts debate.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we preview the Munster SFC semi-final between arch-rivals Cork and Kerry.The Rebels are going into this game on Saturday at 7pm in Supervalu Páirc Uí Chaoimh as underdogs.Kerry are league champions and are favourites for the All-Ireland SFC according to the bookmakers.John Cleary and his team have a massive task ahead of them but there are avenues there for a shock win.Kieran McCarthy and Matthew Hurley delve into the promotion of the game, potential matchups, ways Cork can trouble Kerry and much more.Also on the show, we discuss the Cork hurlers' opening championship game against Clare.There was mixed league final fortunes for inter-county teams last weekend as the Cork camogie team won against Galway but the LGFA team lost to the Westerners.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

Cork have ticked every box so far this year, building up significant momentum on their way to a first league title since 1998.They overwhelmed Tipp in the decider on Leeside, bringing their total of green flags in the last three games to 13, which included six up in Ennis where they head this Sunday.The harsh reality is that league and championship are very different animals and All-Ireland champions Clare will unleash hell on Easter Sunday after getting hammered last month.In our hurling special, we discuss the latest Cork-Clare showdown in detail with Denis Hurley, John Horgan and Jack McKay, and they offer their verdicts on the round-robin series while selecting their top three to qualify from Munster.Can Brian Hayes build on his sensational spring form? Remember he wasn't in the starting line-up for the first round this time last year in Waterford.Is Darragh Fitzgibbon's best position at 11 or will we see him back in midfield again over the coming weeks?Cork's backs have been mean and tight lately and that improved defensive effort will be integral to bridging the gap to 2005, or even reach a first Munster final since 2018.Our guests also discuss their personal Munster championship highlights over the years, the games and goals that stand out.Barry O'Mahony joins us to preview Cork v Kerry in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh. The Kingdom were pushed all the way by John Cleary's side in their last two meetings but the new rules suited Kerry's attack in their Division 1 league victory.Rory Noonan reports from the league finals over the weekend, which saw Cork lose to Galway in football but win the camogie crown for the first time since 2013. How are both sides fixed for championship? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by Cork senior hurler Shane Kingston, amid the hype around the hurling team at the moment.Kingston, who was speaking at the launch of the ‘eir for all' Poc Tapa Challenge, and his Cork teammates are just off the back of their first league title since 1998.They beat Tipperary 3-24 to 0-23 to give themselves the perfect preparation for the Munster SHC.Kingston spoke about how the players are concentrated on the job in hand and how tough the Munster series can be.Also on the show, we discuss the Cork footballers opening their championship campaign with a 0-24 to 0-13 win over Limerick.John Cleary's side will now face old rivals Kerry on Saturday week.The Cork LGFA and camogie teams are in league final action this weekend too as both Joe Carroll and Ger Manley's teams come up against Galway.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

Up next is a conversation that I recently had with John Cleary. John has recently stepped away from leading School and System Improvement at the Northern Territory Department of Education. Before this, he was the Principal of a primary school in Katherine. He also created the NT Learning Commission, which promotes student-led research and uses the Impact Evaluation Cycle. In 2018, John was named one of 12 National Schools Plus Teaching Fellows and has received national recognition for his work as a principal. He is currently working towards a doctorate at the University of Melbourne. This conversation took place during a beautiful wet season storm in Larrakia Country, so very occasionally John's connection drops out, but he comes right back. Here is a resource that is referenced in our conversation: https://www.cse.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/CSE-Leading-Education-Series24-June2024-secure.pdf
The Echo Sport Podcast takes in all the latest GAA action. This week we discuss the state of Cork football.Barry O'Mahony analyses a strong performance at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh against the Louth team that knocked them out of last year's All-Ireland series. Mark Cronin and Chris Óg Jones led the line with aplomb while Colm O'Callaghan grabbed the critical goal.It was a welcome reprieve for John Cleary's side who gave themselves a good chance of escaping relegation and if they beat Cavan away they'll secure a top-four finish and avoid a possible Tailteann Cup appearance.However, the state of Cork football is still a major concern for all Rebels. The U20s taking a heavy beating, albeit in a challenge, from Louth didn't help, especially as underage results in recent years have been a disappointment outside of Munster minor titles in '21 and '22. Where can improvements be made? The geographical spread of Cork football strongholds and the hurling preference in many areas certainly aren't helping... Hosted on Acast.

Éamonn Murphy is joined by Barry O'Mahony and Denis Hurley to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.This week we pay tribute to Ray Ryan to former Cork hurler, Glanmire footballer and Sars legend, who won four counties and guided their U21s to glory. His death shocked everyone on Leeside but the GAA community rallied around his family and club.His brother Pat spoke superbly at his funeral and carried himself with his customary class as he managed the Cork hurlers on Saturday night to a fine victory over Kilkenny.We break down the Rebels' performance at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh with rookie forward Diarmuid 'Duds' Healy shooting the lights out to the tune of 1-5. There's still a lot of play for over the last couple of rounds, though wins over Clare and Galway would send Cork into the league final.The Cork footballers suffered a 14-point hammering at the hands of Roscommon, which now makes relegation a concern and rules out promotion once more.It was a disappointing night in the Páirc in every sense as a massive portion of the fans opted to depart after the hurling and more again at half-time when John Cleary's side were under pressure.Closer to home the leagues threw in over the weekend as we finally got a break from the wet weather and Steven Sherlock caught the eye for St Finbarr's, firing 0-15 away to Cill na Martra.Plus Celtic and Cork City line up glamour friendly for July in the Páirc, with a trophy made by Gerald McCarthy up for grabs...You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.
