Description

As Waterford exit the Championship in the group stages again, All-Ireland winners Paul Murphy and James Skehill joined Will O'Callaghan on The Hurling Pod to assess what's gone wrong for the Deise. On this week's pod: (0:00) - Skehill reveals he's spent 5 weeks preparing his draft. NFL fandom runs deep in hurling circles. (5:54) - Waterford lose their 6th straight Munster SHC game and Lohan has knocked Davy out of the Championship again. (11:16) - What was Waterford's warm-up huddle about? Is their system 'broken'? Puck-out strategy, players not in their best positions. (24:01) - Waterford's issues run deeper than just the senior team, the players also need to take responsibility. (39:38) - Clare's performance wasn't perfect but getting the two-points is what mattered. Tony Kelly's 13 points, Clare's aggressive tackling is working, tightening up at the back. This weekend's Munster games set up beautifully. (46:42) - What kind of response can we expect from Limerick this weekend against Tipperary? Forde's absence a 'huge blow' for Tipp. Tweaks Cahill can make in defence. (59:43) - How to deal with playacting in an attempt to get opponents booked or sent-off? More dangerous hit hits this week. Who would Murphy like to win the All-Ireland outside of Kilkenny? Is the sweeper now dying out? Hurling, It’s Anyone’s Game. Off The Ball has teamed up with Senior Hurling Championship sponsors, Bord Gáis Energy, to uncover stories highlighting the positive impact hurling has had on people’s lives.
