On The Echo Sport Podcast this week, Denis Hurley and Barry O'Mahony join Éamonn Murphy to review a cracking weekend of Cork club action.

They look at the winners and losers from the football group stages with St Finbarr's offering us a reminder of their quality by hitting Valleys for four goals. Castlehaven remain the Premier Senior leading lights, straight into the semis, but Nemo having been quietly taking care of business as well.

Are Clon the dark horses about to blow open the knockout stages? Can Ballincollig push on after beating their neighbours?

Relegation battles loom for some big clubs, like Éire Óg, Clyda Rovers, Carbery Rangers, St Nicks, Ilen Rovers and Macroom.

We pick a Player of the Week, with some sharpshooting forward displays including Steven Sherlock, Aaron Berry, Donncha O'Connor and Blake Murphy.

Plus a big preview of the matches you need to catch in the upcoming hurling quarter-finals and relegation playoffs. Fr O'Neills and Imokilly will draw a bumper crowd to Midleton but will there be an upset in one of the three PSHC clashes.

You can find us every week on Echoline.ie/podcast and all the major podcast platforms.
