ON THIS week's podcast, Kieran caught up with Cork senior football manager John Cleary as the Rebels gear up for the 2026 National Football League.
Cork face into another campaign in Division 2, but before that there is the return of the McGrath Cup in early January.
Cleary is going into his fourth year as permanent Cork boss after he committed to another two-year term in the off season.
He chats about updates on the panel, getting used to the new rules and much more.
Also on the show, we react to the county championship draws for 2026 which were made this week.
Castlehaven, Clonakilty, Carbery Rangers, O’Donovan Rossa, Bandon and Kilbrittain are just some of the clubs that have West Cork derbies to look forward to next year.
