Gaelic Football on Off The Ball is brought to you with thanks to Movember, Ahead of the Game.

Welcome to our Sounds of the Summer podcast, a look back, and look forward, to some of the biggest GAA stories which dominated 2026.

Here, Mayo coach Paddy Tally, chatted to our own GAA correspondent Tommy Rooney back in April ahead of their Connacht championship defeat to Roscommon.

Tally explains how Andy Moran brought him into the Mayo setup, what separates Moran from other managers he’s worked with, and why Mayo remain one of the hardest teams to predict — even when you’re coaching them.

They also dig into Gaelic football’s “seismic shift” under the new rules: from the kicking game of the 80s and 90s, to the possession era, and how the two-point arc and new scoring have changed everything.

Plus: Tally on teen sensation Kobe McDonald and the hype around him.
