Episode description

The Allianz Leagues began with a bang over the weekend and while it’s a new era for Dublin under Dessie Farrell, the rivalry with Kerry is still the one to watch in 2020.

Tomás Ó’Sé joined Will Slattery, Michael Verney and Conor McKeon to look back on the drawn game in Croker as well as all the other football action, including Padraic Joyce’s opening win as Galway manager and Mayo’s draw with Donegal.

However, it was the advanced mark that was generating most of the talking points with Ó’Sé calling for it to be scrapped.

“Why is it being brought in now? Defensive football is not the blight it was,” he tells the panel.

In hurling, John Mullane joined Will, Michael and Conor, and he believes Tipp’s surrender of a ten point lead against Limerick will prove to be a big psychological boost for John Kiely’s men if they meet again in the Championship.

Plus, he sees good things happening for Waterford under Liam Cahill,
“You’re going to see Waterford back challenging and will be able to put it up to anyone on their day,” he says.
