The GAA Hour: RTÉ beat Newstalk to GAA rights and Johnny Doyle on the Railway Cup

And the most biased county secretary report yet

Conan Doherty

Everyone wants a piece of the GAA action, unless it’s inter-provincials.

On this week’s GAA Hour, the panel discuss just how pointless the end-of-year clashes between the four provinces have become and Leinster selector Johnny Doyle joins Colm Parkinson to relay his experiences from this season.

The hot topic is the battle between RTÉ and Newstalk to acquire rights to broadcast live championship clashes and the fallout which saw Newstalk lose the matches they had been covering since 2011.

Leinster GAA chairman, John Horan, is also on the line to face questions of Dublin’s dominance whilst Clare secretary – and Davy Fitzgerald’s dad – has his report run through and it reads awfully conveniently for the former county hurling manager.
