ON THIS week's podcast, O’Donovan Rossa forward Kate O’Donovan chats after the Skibbereen club’s Munster intermediate LGFA title win.
Rossa beat St Ailbes from Limerick by 0-10 to 0-7 and produced a particularly impressive second half display.
That's five championship titles in the last five for super Skibb, who have only lost one game in that time.
O’Donovan talks about how the win has sunk in, the Skibbereen supporters, the influence of manager James O’Donovan and their upcoming All Ireland semi final.
We will discuss the week’s big talking points too.
Castlehaven’s year came to an end after their Munster SFC loss to Dr Crokes in Killarney, 1-15 to 1-8.
A couple of injuries for the Haven to Damien Cahalane and Rory Maguire proved vital.
The Clonakilty LGFA side lost narrowly to Waterford’s Ballymacarbry after extra time.
There was joy for Kilmacabea as they beat Douglas in the county junior AFC but Diarmuid O Mathunas remarkable season came to an end after their defeat to Ballinora.

ON THIS week's podcast, Castlehaven captain Mark Collins joins us on the show after their 0-16 to 0-11 win over Nemo Rangers, winning their second county premier SFC title in a row.
They repeated the feat of 2012/2013, manager Seanie Cahalane captained the team 11 years ago and is now the winning manager.
The Haven were full value for their win after outscoring Nemo by 0-9 to 0-3 in the second half.
Collins talks about what the win means for the Haven, completing the two in a row and another possible Munster run.
Also on the show, we talk about the Carbery junior AFC final where Kilmacabea reigned supreme over Diarmuid O Mathunas, 1-12 to 1-4.

ON THIS week's podcast, former Cork footballer and Southern Star Sports columnist John Hayes previews the county premier SFC final between Castlehaven and Nemo Rangers, on Sunday in Supervalu Pairc Ui Chaoimh at 3.30pm.
The Haven are going for their second Andy Scannell Cup in a row and face a Nemo side chasing their first crown since 2022.

We discuss where the game could be won and lost, Castlehaven’s experience, kickouts and overall key aspects to the big game.
Hayes also gives his final prediction.
There are other divisional finals taking place too and we look back at the drawn Carbery junior AHC final between Ballinascarthy and Diarmuid O Mathunas (0-13 apiece).

ON THIS week's podcast, Kieran chats to O’Donovan Rossa captain Laura O’Mahony after the Skibb side’s county intermediate LGFA triumph over Naomh Aban, 0-12 to 1-8.
O’Mahony talks about the rise of the club from being in junior C in 2018 to competing in Senior in 2025.
Rossa won the junior Cork, Munster and All Ireland crowns in 2023 and have won 19 of their last 20 championship games.
It is a fairytale story for Skibb and O’Mahony is one of the key players forefronting their rise.

ON THIS week's podcast, Kieran McCarthy chats to Cork Camogie and Courcey Rovers star Saoirse McCarthy.
McCarthy was in Croke Park this week for the Launch of Eir as an Official Telco partner of the Camogie Association and three year sponsor of the U16 Camogie All Ireland Championship.
She talks about how Camogie brings people together, adapting to Dublin life and Cork’s quest for the O’Duffy Cup three in a row in 2025.
We also look at the Cork county championship action as Clonakilty exited the Cork premier SFC in dramatic fashion, losing on penalties for Nemo Rangers.
There was positivity for Gabriel Rangers however as they produced the shock in overcoming Mitchelstown.
This weekend, Castlehaven, Dohenys, Gabriels and Adrigole are all in semi final action and we will look forward to those last four encounters.

ON THIS week's podcast, we chat to Ballinascarthy forward Brian O’Donovan ahead of their Carbery junior AHC semi final against St James on Sunday at 2.30pm in Enniskeane.
O’Donovan has been in two of the last three Southern Star Team of the Week’s across hurling and football.
He is one of the most lethal finishers in the Carbery championship and one of Bal’s marksmen in both codes.
We also look at the Cork county championship action and indeed disruption.
The big story this week was the postponement of big football games last Sunday due to a Met Eireann orange weather warning, including Nemo Rangers v Clonakilty and Carbery Rangers v Eire Og in the premier SFC.
Dohenys progressed to the semi final of the senior AFC after their win over Cill na Martra but there was disappointment for Bantry Blues, Ilen Rovers, Urhan and St James.

PAUL O'DONOVAN was recently awarded for his incredible 2024 with a monthly West Cork Sports Star award, and we took the time to catch up with him in a year that has gone pretty well, it's fair to say.
A second Olympic gold medal, a seventh World Rowing championship, starting work as a doctor – it's been a busy year.
Thousands flocked to see O'Donovan and the other Skibbereen rowers at a massive homecoming event at the start of September – on this week's podcast, he tells us about why he loves West Cork, what the local recognition means to him, and how 2024 hasn’t been a bad year overall.
We also cover a very busy weekend of county and local football, taking you through each grade as we get ready for relegation play-offs and quarter finals in a couple of weeks time.

THIS week's podcast is a preview special as we look ahead to this weekend's Cork football championship matches as the final round of the group stage takes place.
It looks set to be an exciting couple of days of football as there is still plenty to be decided across the different divisions, with a number of West Cork clubs looking to either qualify for the next round or avoid the dreaded relegation playoff.
In Premier Senior, Castlehaven and Carbery Rangers clash in a West Cork derby. Ross know they will need a win to get into the next round, while Castlehaven are already through. Clonakilty are also in action and know a win over St Michaels will qualify them.
Newcestown are in a funny position ahead of the weekend, where they could potentially lose and qualify or win and not qualify. They could finish anywhere from 1st to 4th in their group – one to watch this weekend.
West Cork has lots of teams in action this weekend, and we take you through the permutations for each one on this week's Star Sport Podcast.
We also hear about an exciting charity event taking place this October, and look back at last weekend's hurling action as well.
