What are the best GAA podcasts at the moment?

I listen to the GAA Hour mainly these days but wouldn't mind broadening my menu

On the money with The GAA Hour

Mayo News is very good

Ditto OTB GAA

Just subscribed to Second Captains

Game On is average enough.

Bunny Colvin · 16-11-2020 11:37PM

Ah Refs podcast is a good listen too.

I would substitute Ah Ref in there for Game On.
The Mayo News is my favourite but maybe that's because its the first podcast I listened to regularly.
Nothing like putting it on the Monday after a win even a league win,the opening chords of that tune and I'm tapping the foot,puts me in a good mood for the day!

I don't know where ye get the time to be listening to Podcasts

So what are we supposed to do for the next 3 weeks ...........
After the back door shenanigans of 2016-2019 we are so used of being on the road and games in quick succession. I have to say the traditional route of 3 weeks between matches really takes the wind out of the sails .

The days are long lately working from home in a dark empty house..... listening to fellas shyting on about the Mayo half back line helps fill the void :-)

Just listening to the Mayo News one now....I was subscribed to it before but must have lost it when I changed phone or something. It's a great listen in fairness....the lads are so passionate and earnest....and God help us, you can just get a sense of that little kernel of hope building yet again

The Mayo news Podcast is excellent even if they are a bit deluded at times. Its great to hear the hype build.

Yes it's a very good podcast.

Deluded so you say,care to expand?

I find it quite grounded in general.

How so?

It's a simple question for a new poster with your interesting username whose majority of posts are in the Mayo thread.

No hostility here.

Did anyone happen to notice the gloves Keith Higgins was wearing when he came on?
They caught my nephew's eye and he wants a pair as a Christmas present.

I can't make out a brand name and never saw the design before.

To be honest, they looked like Adidas goalkeeping gloves to me!

God bless his eyesight!

I would doubt they were goalkeepers gloves, DB Sports have a lot of players wearing their gloves and an image search (below link) shows Keith wearing them previously... but I'm sure they get sent all sorts so it may not have been the brand he was wearing on Sunday.

They're the navy and white DB sports ones: https://dbsportsgloves.com/collections/gloves/products/navy-and-white-db-sports-gloves

Spotted them on the sportsfile pics: https://www.sportsfile.com/id/1956146/ and https://www.sportsfile.com/id/1956138/

I listen to them on the drive to work or when I'm out walking the dog. Passes the time and it's interesting listening to the analysis.

km79 · 18-11-2020 02:42PM

I don’t know if I’d be recommending the gloves Higgins was wearing Sunday

Listened back to back the preview and review of the Mayo News podcast while been blown around Westport quay last night. It was excellent as usual.
Wonder is Ed Mc a member here

Thought the Galway lad, I can never remember his name, is really good and honest with his assessment and actually called it pretty well in the preview.
Padden is a decent pundit also.

Its light hearted and interesting. Hats off to them for it.

Who are we calling for the 3 provincials?
Can't see past Donegal winning by 6-7.
I really do see Meath given Dublin a run for it for the first 50-60 mins but fitness and bench should see them have a 3-4 point win. It will be the first big test they have had in a lot of months.
Cork should win, but Tipp have a decent set of players and if they get a run at them then who knows.

For us, to get Cork should be a bigger test which I'd prefer to get, as long as we win it!

Probably Barry Cullinane. That's who they used to have on it anyway. I have gotten out of habit of listening to it this year. However, I agree with other posters above who say it is a very good podcast.

muddle84 · 19-11-2020 12:23PM

With work from home ive lost track of all the usual podcasts. what used to be a 2 hour commute is now 5 minutes. I need to make time for it somewhere!

Thats him yes. Intelligent pundit. Its refreshing to hear his honest side of both teams.
Conroy 12 yrs with Galway, since the age of 18 when he scored against us down here to win it. As much as he likes the "dark arts" (who we have as well) you have to applaud that he has changed his physique to suit the changing game.
