Game of Throw-Ins: JOE’s new GAA Championship Podcast

With the Championship really starting to kick into gear, it’s time to unveil the first episode of Game of Throw-Ins, our new GAA Championship Podcast.

Unfortunately for fans of the wildly popular TV show of the same (well, similar) name, the podcast itself has no association with the show apart from some very badly drawn out analogies in the opening couple of minutes, but what it does have is plenty of lively debate and discussion about everything that went on in the Football Championship at the weekend.

Host Conor Heneghan is joined by JOE Sports Editor Sean Nolan and Declan Whooley to talk about Donegal’s very impressive opening defence of their Ulster and All-Ireland titles, the facile victories for Kerry and Cork in Munster, London’s historic victory over Sligo in Ruislip and the subsequent fall-out over Eamonn O’Hara’s comments about Kevin Walsh on The Sunday Game.

Keeping with football, the lads also look ahead to provincial battles in Ulster, Leinster and Munster this weekend while as far as the small ball is concerned, there’s a preview of what to expect in what should be a tasty encounter between Clare and Waterford in Semple Stadium.

Somehow, half-drank bottles of coke, sports bras and Pat Spillane talking about blankets also find their way into the mix, while the lads put their necks on the line as part of the JOE GAA Prediction League in association with Eircom, more details about which you can find right here.
