A glimpse into my All-Ireland week (Kieran McSweeney, TV3)

“It has been foot to the floor since Monday morning.

All-Ireland hurling final week is one of the biggest in Irish sport, but is also an enjoyable week and it is great to be involved, to get a chance to sample the atmosphere in both counties, talk with players and be present on the day. Then to have Cork in the final makes it all that bit sweeter.

Every day I am preparing material for the 5.30pm bulletin. Then you are constantly working on bits for the GAA show on Friday evening and the week concludes with TV3’s live coverage of the minor final on Sunday from noon.
