Sky Wyses up to GAA with championship team

Former Munster rugby winger Brian Carney has been chosen to front Sky Sports’ GAA championship coverage alongside Rachel Wyse.

The Cork-born ex-rugby union and rugby league international will co-present with Kildare native Wyse, an anchor with Sky Sports News, at each of the broadcaster’s 20 live games.

Carney is already on Sky’s books as a presenter on its rugby league output. The 37-year-old, who played with Wicklow GAA club Valleymount in his teens, admitted he had pleaded to be considered for the position.
