RTÉ GAA Podcast: Cork's financial factor, Limerick off broadway and the notion of amateurism at stake?

Jacqui Hurley and Rory O'Neill are joined on the RTÉ GAA Podcast by Shane McGrath and The Irish Times' Malachy Clerkin to delve into the upcoming fixtures in the Allianz Hurling League on a weekend when Cork will be under pressure to bounce back when they host Kilkenny at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

The Eamon O'Shea factor will be at play as Tipperary and Galway meet in Thurles on Sunday, while All-Ireland champions Limerick are quietly getting on with business under the radar.

The podcast also discussed the spiralling costs for county boards and how that can be tackled head on.
