ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by We Are Meath podcast host Davy Rispin to preview the big top of the table clash in Division 2 in Pairc Ui Rinn this Sunday (2pm).

John Cleary’s Cork are after three league wins in a row for the first time in the top two divisions since 2014 after beating Offaly in Tullamore (3-15 to 0-19).

Meath are on a three game winning streak too after seeing off Derry, Cavan and Louth in recent weeks with midfielder Jack Flynn getting winning two-pointers in two of those matches.

The Royals are All-Ireland semi-finalists from 2025 so the county is on a high.

The feeling is whoever wins this game will put themselves in a great position for promotion.

Also on the show, we are joined by Tony Hughes from Access Credit Union to talk about his interest in pickleball.

Hughes represented Ireland at the 2025 European Pickleball Championships in Rome and is hoping it’s a sport that can catch on in West Cork.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by Three Red Kings’ Tom Savage after Ireland’s 36-14 defeat at the hands of France in Paris.

This wasn’t the greatest night for Andy Farrell’s side as they started their 6 Nations campaign with a loss.

Multiple questions came in the aftermath, mainly about where Irish rugby was going after such a damaging defeat.

Savage delves into this and the ongoing debate of who should play out-half, Sam Prendergast or Innishannon’s Jack Crowley.

Teams who are going well though are Cork’s inter-county GAA teams who are unbeaten across all codes in the National Leagues.

The hurlers made it three wins from three last weekend in beating Tipperary (0-29 to 0-22), while the footballers hope to replicate that record when they travel to Offaly this Sunday.

The LGFA side face Armagh and can go up to second with a win while the camogie team begin their season on Saturday when they make the trip to Waterford.
