The GAA Hour: Jamie Clarke on Ulster final, penalty technique plus Emma Duggan interview

Niall McIntyre

Derry have done back to back.

Armagh’s Jamie Clarke joined on this week’s show to discuss an Ulster final that had everything, from black cards to goals, to drama, and eventually saw his home county lose out on penalties.

The Crossmaglen star was full of praise for Derry for their courage and bravery in snatching the victory but was frustrated at certain elements of what he perceived to be overly cautious play from Armagh.

After all, they are now 15 years without an Ulster title so this one will really have hurt them.

The lads also discuss Dublin’s demolition of Louth in the Leinster final. Louth’s bizarre tactics are mentioned while Dublin’s switch to a more adventurous style of play is also noted. It certainly bodes ominously for their rivals, although the championship proper is still a month away – there is some ranting about the system that will see three of the four teams qualify from the group stages.
