The Two Seans are back
A year later and local GAA afficionados Sean McCabe and Sean Quinn are back on the TwoMacs Podcast with a look at the season past and what's to come.

It's a long chat but worth every minute, as the Brackaville and Clonoe stalwarts share stories, humour and memories of a bygone era of Gaelic games, including that great 1970's rivalry between the Dubs and Kerry. 

Since their last visit, 'Glorious Clonoe' won the championship, Ronan welcomed the big bus pass and the Fianna's return to senior football while Sean Quinn reflects on life in the Junior league as well as co-commentating for Tyrone TV.  He also considers the fortunes of our club and county hurlers. 

The club draws go on while there is a parish battle coming up to raise funds for a most worthy charity... we wonder which players will make a comeback, and will there be a schemozzle?!

We recall journeys, not for the faint hearted, to play Mountjoy Emmets, that became Brocagh Emmets in 1980.

Is David Clifford the greatest player ever? The Seans remind us of many great players, not least our own Frank McGuigan and Peter Canavan. They also consider the hurling legends although TwoMacs podcast producer Oliver later remarked that he was surprised by the omission of Tipperary legend Nicky English, an oversight perhaps! 

The new rules get the thumbs-up but do they most suit Kerry?! 

It's prediction time again and hopefully we'll do better than last time although Sean McCabe did correctly back his own O'Rahillys for the cup.

The guests also reflect on those who have departed in the last 12 months, while we honour all our Gaels who have gone to their eternal reward. May they Rest In Peace. 

It is an engaging, funny and nostalgic chat topped off with a recitation in the best style of story teller Sean Quinn.
