On a members pod that we're making available for all Hurling Pod listeners this week, the GAA's Head of Hurling Willie Maher joined the lads for a chat about why he's passionate about trying to grow the game across the country.

They discussed why 20,000 free tickets have been made available for under-14s for the Leinster and McDonagh Cup finals, 45 new clubs being set up, pushing for more coverage for lower-tier competitions and what he hopes to achieve as Head of Hurling.
