Jamison Gibson Park has gone on to be without a doubt one of the best 9s in world rugby! He's one of my favourite players to watch the way he plays with speed and controls the tempo of games while always nailing the basics. He was also one of my favourite team mates to play with because he was just a massive lad. 4 years ago this episode was recorded where he had just debuted for Ireland so it's pretty cool to hear some of the conversations we had around his future plans to see how far he has exceeded them!Some other parts that stood out for me in this episode...Hearing about the rural upbringing Jamison had on Great Barrier Island.How he handled missing out on the NZ 20's even though many felt he should've been in there.How he was shafted by the Blues.Winning the Super Rugby with the Hurricanes, starting as a wider squad member.Why he left NZ.How he had found it over in Ireland & with Leinster.And heaps more!As you'll hear, Jammo is a massive lad and it's been so cool seeing him starring at RWC's with Ireland and now on the Lions tour. He is one of the greats! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Galway are out of the All-Ireland senior ladies football championship after a heartbreaking semi-final defeat to Dublin in Glenfisk O'Connor Park, Tullamore on Saturday night (19th July 2025). In an enthralling encounter, a Hannah Tyrrell first-half penalty kept Dublin in the hunt, but Andrea Trill, with her first kick of the game, looked to have scored the match winner in normal time, only for Tyrrell to equalise at 0-13 to 1-10 and force extra-time. The Leinster champions edged in front before two second-period goals from Carla Rowe and Kate Sullivan put nine points between them.  However, Galway refused to concede as Trill and Olivia Divilly scored late Galway goals, but time eventually ran out. Galway Bay FM's match commentary team were Tommy Devane and Katelyn Hayes.

Connacht Rugby's announcement back in June (2025) that former England head coach and Leinster senior coach Stuart Lancaster caught a lot of attention. Lancaster brings experience probably not seen by any of his predecessors, including leading his country into the 2015 World Cup, helping Leinster to four PRO14 titles and the 2018 European Champions Cup, and he recently served as head coach in Racing 92 in France. His career spans over 20 years, and he'll have responsibility for defence as well as his Head Coach role. Stuart Lancaster has been chatting to Galway Bay FM's William Davies. == Connacht will start the European Challenge Cup away to Ospreys on Sunday, 7th December, before hosting Georgia's Black Lion six days later. Connacht then head to Montpellier on Sunday, 11th January, before welcoming French side Mont-a-bán on the 17th.

Galway meet Meath this Sunday (29th June 2025) in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship quarter-final, looking to make back-to-back appearances in the All-Ireland semi-finals for the first time since they were last crowned champions in 2001. They beat the Royals 0-17 to 0-8 in the All-Ireland Final that year and currently lead the Leinster side 4-3 in their head-to-head.  However, Meath won the last two meetings in qualifiers in 2007 and 2011. The Tribesmen will be strong favourites, but Meath have beaten Dublin and Kerry on their way to the final eight, and Robbie Brennan's team are looking to reach the final four for the first time since 2009. After the draw was made last Monday, Off The Ball's Tommy Rooney (from Meath) joined Galway Bay FM's John Morley and Ollie Turner on 'Galway Talks.' == Throw-in at Croke Park on Sunday is 1.45pm and we'll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.

Ant, Phil and Andy recap the two season finales for URC and Super Rugby as well as the non-Test between the B&I Lions (minus Leinster) and Argentina (minus most of their first choice French clubbers). The Lions head off to Australia with more questions than answers but Ant like a good Brit thinks this might be a good thing. The Super Clubs of Leinster and the Crusaders add more trophies to their storied histories, and the Bulls bullies get taught a lesson at Choke, I mean Croke, Park. Meanwhile, attention turns to the Test window, with an appetizer in the form of the BaaBaas in Cape Town who have already run up significant bills at Caprice in Clifton if rumours are to be believed.

In this raw and honest episode, RG Snyman opens up about the toughest four years of his life at Munster, the backlash from fans, and what kept him going. He shares the cultural contrasts between South Africa and Ireland, the truth about Leinster vs. Munster, and what makes the Springboks feel unbreakable. We talk Rassie Erasmus - the myth, the madness, and why players would run through walls for him. A deep dive into pain, pride, and a World Cup warrior's mindset. Learn more about your ad choices.
