Éamonn Murphy and our GAA experts Denis Hurley and Barry O’Mahony discuss the talking points in Gaelic games in Cork.

They reflect on the hurlers' loss to Clare in Ennis. While there were positives to be taken from Cusack Park, they still got overwhelmed in the second half. They must improve for Saturday's visit from Kilkenny with ball-winning and the concession of scores from turnovers costing them last weekend.

Goals cost the footballers in Ardee, where they lost to Louth for the second year running. They now need some victories or a relegation battle beckons but at least have a weekend off before hosting Cavan.

Plus a look at the U21 divisional football action and the Fitzgibbon Cup prospects of UCC and MTU Cork.
