PIC: A beaming Michael Lyster made his return to The Sunday Game studio today

Will Slattery

Good to see him back.

Ever since Michael Lyster opened up about his near-death experience following a heart attack in his home, GAA fans have been waiting for him to return to our screens. Joe Brolly has provided regular updates throughout Lyster’s recovery, including this photo of the Galway broadcaster catching up with his colleagues off air during RTÉ’s coverage of today’s Leinster football final.

The Sunday Game presenter previously said he hoped to return in the near future, and we will likely see him back in the presenter’s chair early next month.

It is good to see Lyster looking healthy, although we aren’t sure if jumping back into refereeing arguments between Brolly, O’Rourke and Spillane is the best thing for a bad heart.
