In a wide ranging podcast- recorded 36 hours after a heart-breaking All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Kerry- this is remarkable stuff from one of the best players in Gaelic football- in Gaelic games! Brendan Rodgers should pick-up an All star award in midfield later this year after a dramatic change of position in 2023. His performance against Kerry was scintillating. We reflect on that defeat, his move to midfield and who he believes will win Sam Maguire (and Liam MacCarthy) The podcast examines a season in red. The referee performance against Kerry, will Ciaran Meenagh remain as manager, the feeling within the camp when Rory Gallagher was replaced as coach 48 hours before the Ulster final- and its impact. Can you play both football and hurling and what's it like being a five-time world champion in Irish dancing. Brendan brings us into a world of pressure! All-star awards- will Brendan pick one up later this year? Does he care? He's an interesting response. Planning a wedding when you've just one free week per-year and his decision not to drink alcohol is interesting. His Sunday night was a cup of tea, a traybake (because it was earned) and off to bed. Different. What's vibrant about this podcast is the brilliant personality of Brendan Rogers. Devoted to Slaughtneil and Derry and an absolute belief he will climb the steps of the Hogan stand for both club and county. He’s also a healthy look on life, perspective and being level. A brilliant episode of the Multi-Award winning GAA Social as Brendan Rogers sits down with Thomas Niblock & Oisin McConville
