ON THIS week's podcast, we reflect on a great day for the Cork footballers in overcoming Meath 1-23 to 1-21.

The result puts John Cleary’s side within touching distance of promotion to Division 1, a tier they haven’t been in since 2016.

It also confirmed Cork’s fourth victory in succession and has them on eight points on top of the table. Meath and Derry fall in behind on six while Louth sit on four in fourth spot.

The Rebels’ next game against Derry in Celtic Park (1pm) this Sunday is now a huge match. The Ulster side, like Cork, are on a winning streak. They have beaten their last three opponents.

We discuss Cork’s top two aspirations heading into the final three games.

The hurlers and LGFA team are hoping to keep their form going this weekend too against Kilkenny and Waterford respectively.

The camogie team lost to Antrim and are at the other end of the spectrum while we also talk about Jack Crowley’s super game as Ireland beat England in Twickenham.
