Joey Sheridan is 18. That ride on Princess Zoe was as close to perfection as you will get. He is 18. A teenager. A rare talent.

Patrick Mullins might be an amateur but that ride on Sharjah was a thing of beauty. Not many would have the balls to do that in a Champion Hurdle. He may have been beaten but that was a peach.

Am I the only one who thinks it’s utterly bonkers Glen will get a replay? The world has gone mad. Honest mistake. Made no difference to result. If I were Crokes I would go one better and instead of giving them a replay, give them the game. It wouldn’t be worth celebrating then.

When are the @TheSundayGame pundits going to realise that it doesn’t matter if it’s an All-Ireland final or not, the rules are the same for every match. ‘’It’s very harsh to be sent off for that in an All-Ireland final.’’ It was the same rubbish after the hurling final.

Darts commentators talk some scutter. Price has apparently gone into ‘’defensive mode’’. How is that even possible in darts? And, Anderson is going to ‘’attack ferociously’’ in the next set? Wayne’s world is a different place to the actual world.
