Meabh de Burca & Hannah Tyrell join Will O’Callaghan to break down Sunday’s All Ireland Senior Ladies Football final, which finished in controversial fashion as Kerry had thought they’d won it with a last-minute goal, but a square ball was called, resulting in Galway ending their 22 year wait for their second All Ireland!

Jonathan Higgins catches up with Daniel Moynihan, Kate Geraghty, Siobhan Divilly as well as Louise & Nicola Ward after Galway's All Ireland win against Kerry, as they make their way to Crumlin's Children Hospital.

Galway are back on top — their first All-Ireland Ladies Senior Football title since 2004 — and Jonathan Higgins joins Colm Boohig & Enda Coll to relive a final that swung wildly in the last seconds. From the hooter chaos, the advantage call, and the square-ball drama, to Leanne Coen’s two goals and the defensive grind that defined the day.

We dig into Daniel Moynihan’s “three-year plan”, how Galway finally found togetherness after years of heartbreak, and why Kerry will be left frustrated by how close they came.

Plus, reaction from Kate Slevin and Siobhán Divilly, and a broader chat on what the new rules (and the two-point arc) are doing to the spectacle.
