LISTEN: GAA Hour Hurling Show’s appreciation for the finer points of the winter game

If you want to glory in the magnificence of winter hurling, talk to a defender.

Luckily, on The GAA Hour Hurling Show we count among are number arguably the greatest back to ever lace up a pair of boots and tread on another man's toes (accidentally, of course). And so nine-time All-Ireland winner JJ Delaney talks us through the first week of the National Hurling League, using words like "sticky", "hardy" and "old school". He may not have appreciated the result in Nowlan Park, but he was full of admiration for how Waterford beat the Cats. SportsJOE GAA Editor Colm Parkinson is also joined by Damien Hayes and Mikey Stafford, as always, while Wexford joint-captain Lee Chin tells us all about the county's long journey back from the disappointment of 2014. Along with Tipperary's impressive dismantling of Dublin and Cork's young guns, the panel also found time to discuss Jackie Tyrrell's socks. Listen to the show below, or subscribe on iTunes.
