Podcasts about sarsfields

All-Ireland hurling final week is here and The Echo Sport Podcast has you covered ahead of the eagerly-awaited showdown between Cork and Tipperary at Croke Park. The Rebels are favourites, having wrestled the Munster title from Limerick before their shock quarter-final exit at the hands of Dublin and back on the big stage after last summer's agonising one-point extra-time loss to Clare. The Premier were well beaten by Cork in the Munster series this year and in 2024, along with the league final in April, but they're a very different animal now. We look at how they reshaped the team and went on a five-game run of victories to carry them into their first All-Ireland final since 2019. The podcast team pick out the hurlers Cork will have to shut down and discuss Liam Cahill's strong record against the Rebels at underage level and if that will have a bearing on July 20. The marquee match-ups are analysed along with three Rebels who need to hit the heights to end a 20-year wait for All-Ireland glory. Plus the scramble for tickets, with the Cork hurlers as popular as they were in their last dominant era in the mid-noughties, and all the focus on the 'hype train'. How can the manic support for Pat Ryan's side be viewed as a negative nationally? We also round up the league final action across Rebel county, headlined by Sarsfields completing three in a row at Division 1 level with a strong second half against St Finbarr's. It's been a remarkable return to the helm for Johnny Crowley, having also won a county and reached last January's All-Ireland club final in Croker. They are front-runners for the Seán Óg Murphy cannister, as are Midleton, who beat Killeagh in a fiery Division 2 decider. Elsewhere, Bride Rovers saw off Newcestown after extra time and Aghabullogue's five-goal victory over Ballyhea, two grades above them in championship, also caught the eye. 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.

Dublin's Na Fianna put in a dominant display at Croke Park this afternoon to be crowned AIB All Ireland Club Hurling champions, beating Sarsfields 2-23 to 0-20.

Sarsfields completed a Galway-dominated weekend at Croke Park with victory over Truagh-Clonlara in the final of the AIB All Ireland Senior Club Camogie Championship. After the game, Aisling O'Reilly caught up with player of the match Niamh McGrath, who became a mother just earlier this year. She also spoke with her sister Siobhan, and their father Michael 'Hopper' McGrath - who also happens to be their manager.

One of The Banner's intercounty camogie backroom staff says Truagh Clonlara have paved the way for a future club All Ireland title in Clare. The south east Clare fell to defeat against Sarsfields of Galway as they tried to become the first side from the Banner to take home senior club All Ireland honours. The McGrath sisters proved too much for the Clare and Munster champions, notching 1-12 between them, Siobhan scoring 1-5 with Niamh adding a further seven points in a player of the match display. Clare camogie selector Ann Marie McGann says Truagh Clonlara ran into a juggernaut in Sarsfields, but that they will prove an inspiration for Clare sides going forward.

Ahead of the All Ireland club camogie final, Clare FM's Derrick Lynch travelled to O'Shea's Bar Clonlara to speak to members of the Truagh Clonlara club and preview their historic Croke Park showdown with Sarsfields

A member of the Truagh-Clonlara backroom team claims the experience the team gained over the last month was what spurred them into the All Ireland club camogie final. The south-east Clare side booked their spot in the decider after a two point win over St.Vincent's of Dublin in Walsh Park yesterday. The reward is a trip to Croke Park to face off against Galway champions Sarsfields, with the game set for a 4.15pm start on December 15th. Truagh-Clonlara selector, Eoin Fitzgerald, says they were the beneficiaries of coming out on top in multiple tight games so far in their campaign.
