Ahead of a big weekend of action in hurling and Gaelic football, Mikey Stafford and Rory O'Neill are joined by Malachy Clerkin, Brendan Cummins and Eamonn Fitzmaurice.
The Munster final is a Semple Stadium sellout and Limerick v Clare has the feel of a throwback decider. Brendan feels Clare's approach to Limerick puck-outs will be crucial, while Malachy believes the reborn Shane O'Donnell may have a big bearing.
Also, watch for Limerick players coming to the sideline for instructions from John Kiely or Paul Kinnerk - Clare men in 'The Confessional' could make it tasty.
Galway have become Brian Cody's bogey team but, with Henry Shefflin now over them, the Kilkenny boss will be desperate to win a third straight Leinster title.
However there is a sense that Kilkenny are still wrestling with their best 15 and their style of play, while Galway are settled in terms of personnel and already have the look of a 'Henry Shefflin team'. But would you write off the Cats?
Kerry and Antrim meet in the Joe McDonagh Cup final on Saturday in Croke Park, with Antrim favourites to win promotion back to the Leinster championship.
Former Kerry coach Brendan gives the Kingdom a shot, which would of course mean a Munster promotion-relgation play-off against his native Tipperary.
FOOTBALL FROM 48'53"
The qualifiers kick off with a bang, as two Division 1 teams will find their seasons over before the June Bank Holiday.
Tyrone travel to Armagh and Eamonn reckons if there are any doubts about the defending All-Ireland champions' hunger, they will be answered in the Athletic Grounds. As Malachy points out, these are two teams with decent pedigree through the backdoor.
Monaghan travel to Mayo for their first ever Championship meeting and if injuries in Mayo are as bad as rumoured, the Farney will smell blood, but Malachy has doubts about his home county's ability to get a big result outside Ulster.
Eamonn would love to see some variety in Mayo's play, like the display of kick passing they showed against Dublin in the league.
Clare are looking to prevent Meath from recording a sixth straight win over Colm Collins' men, while Cork welcome Louth to a cavernous Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
The Tailteann Cup is turning a few heads and as it reached the quarter-final stage, every team will have a televised Croke Park semi-final and the possibility of silverware in their sights.
