FORMER Cork footballer and Star columnist John Hayes joins the podcast this week to talk about Cork's loss to Louth in the All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final at the weekend.

Hayes says he doesn't think he's 'ever been quite as annoyed' at a result as he was on Sunday, and breaks down where he thinks Cork went wrong, why they struggled to create chances against Louth's defensive system and what's next for manager John Cleary.

We also take a look back at Cork's five year plan, released in 2019. It's fair to say none of the goals have been achieved to date.

Elsewhere, five West Cork athletes and counting have been selected on Team Ireland for Olympic Games in Paris – Paul O'Donovan, Fintan McCarthy, Emily Hegarty, Aoife Casey and David Harte.

With more set to be announced, we look forward to a busy summer for West Cork sport!
