Tony Kelly is a bit special.

Ballyea’s run continues and Tony Kelly’s magical influence only grows. The first-time Clare champions are in the Munster final and a certain someone’s 1-10 against Thurles Sarsfields had a decent part to play in that.

The Banner forward threatened to take the 2016 county season by the horns and make it his own this summer but a crazy, memorable game in the league final was as good as it got for Clare in the end.

Kelly joins this week’s GAA Hour to chat with Colm Parkinson about why he thinks the 2013 All-Ireland champions have stuttered in recent years.

The Ballyea legend also talks us through a fairly remarkable performance last weekend and gives a fascinating insight into his preparations.

On top of that, the SportsJOE podcast discusses the move of Eamonn Kelly to Laois after the hurling boss stepped down from Offaly only in August, citing personal and business reasons.

Parkinson is joined with Mikey Stafford and Conán Doherty who all have very different ideas about which club game is the best this weekend – and which road you should take to get to those games!
