PODCAST: The Big Red Bench Saturday January 17th 2015

A disappointing day for Munster Rugby Fans

It was a disappointing day for all Munster Rugby fans, and that's where we began with this evenings show, former Munster and Ireland Scrum Half Tom Tierney joined us to discuss the heavy defeat to Saracens in the European Champions Cup. Tierney also spoke to us as Cork Con Head Coach ahead of their Munster Senior Cup Final next week, while he's also Ireland Womens Head Coach and talked us through their Six Nations prep as they hold a training camp this weekend. Cork beat CIT by eleven points today in their Waterford Crystal Cup Quarter Final, we got reaction from Cork Selector Seanie McGrath, CIT Manager Pat Mulcahy, and Cork and CIT Midfielder Aidan Walsh. We talk football, with reaction from the days Premier League games. Chelsea opened up a 5 point lead at the top of the table with a huge win over Swansea. Cork City Manager John Caulfield talks us through the process of signing former Celtic and Manchester United Midfielder Liam Miller. UCC Selector John Corcoran joined us to discuss their McGrath Cup Semi Final victory over IT Tralee on Friday night, and offers his reponse to the debate started by Joe Brolly on the demands placed on Inter-County College players.
