On The Echo Sport Podcast this week, Denis Hurley and Barry O'Mahony join Éamonn Murphy to review the football action and preview the hurling semi-finals.

They look at St Finbarr's victory over Ballincollig and ask if they're better placed coming in against county champions Castlehaven now they've had a tough test. The other side of the draw is on hold, after the board postponed four games on Sunday.

In Senior A, Dohenys delivered one of the best performances of the weekend but how can you pick between the Dunmanway side, Knocknagree, Kanturk and Carrigaline as champions-elect?

They also discuss the state of Northside football with St Nick's, Na Piarsaigh and St Vincent's contesting relegation finals and the future of Kerry legend Aidan O'Mahony as Macroom manager.

There's also a big preview of the hurling matches you need to catch. Who will fall short in Midleton-Sars and Imokilly-Blackrock? Do Carrigaline have the momentum and ideal venue to beat Ballincollig in Premier Intermediate? Can Bride Rovers get their revenge on Blarney?

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