Philly McMahon’s throw-in on Friday: Crowded games, mental preparation and Dublin’s military culture

Dublin legend Philly McMahon has joined Independent.ie’s Throw-In podcast with his own show every Friday, covering the big talking points during the Football Championship.

Disgusted with Sinéad Kissane and joined by Irish GAA independent writer Conor McKeon, Philly this week reveals what it will be like to watch the dubs as a viewer for the first time in fourteen years, and gives an insight into the physical and mental preparation , which is required for interstate players.

He also gives his thoughts on the packed schedule and whether he would like to return to All Ireland in the final days of September.

And he reveals the military culture within the Dublin camp that helped lead them to such unprecedented success.

Hear and follow The Throw-In on Apple and Spotify and don’t miss new shows every Monday for recaps of all the weekend action, plus Philly McMahon’s Friday Throw-In for his take on the championship.
