Second Captains 18/08 - Cork collapse, centre of mediocrity, Mark English, David Gillick

Tipperary stormed into the All-Ireland semi-final, but the question on everyone’s lips now is – have they done enough to impress Eoin McDevitt? The man who could put out a patent on the “back Kilkenny regardless of form or circumstance” mindset talks to Malachy Clerkin and Maurice O’Brien. The European athletics championships were a successful few days for a new-look Irish team – we’re joined by our 800m medallist Mark English, and David Gilllick is in studio to talk to us about English, oxygen deprivation, and the most violent 1500m final any of us can remember. Plus there’s the never-ending battle between athletes and cuddly computer-based mascots, when GAA surgeons go wild, and the return of the premier league – the football fan’s tripe and onions.
