It’s All-Ireland quarter-final week as John Mullane, Pat Ryan and Michael Verney bring their memories of past clashes, as the lads also ask if corner forward or corner back is a tougher position. Plus - Mull’s top three defenders he’s faced, the verbals forwards face on field and the 2006 World Cup ‘rocket’ boots. On the field, can Dublin get off the floor against a Clare team who would ‘love a cut off Limerick’. On Sunday, Offaly face Cork in Thurles - will the Rebels be ruthless professionals again?
