Of all the days I have been with RTÉ, yesterday was definitely the toughest, writes Anthony Daly.

Two‑time All‑Ireland–winning captain and former Dublin and Clare manager, Anthony Daly, is a much-respected pundit and columnist as well as ringmaster in chief on the hugely-popular Dalo’s Hurling Show.

My first gig with The Sunday Game was back in 2007. I disappeared for a few years, when I was appearing on the other side of the camera with the Dubs, before returning to Montrose again in 2015. I really love the work but of all the days I have been with RTÉ, yesterday was definitely the toughest.

As Eddie Brennan and I sat down to watch the game, I was pining to be down in the Park. When I heard the Tulla Pipe Band cranking up, I nearly cracked up. When the memories of all the times I walked around our field with the boys behind that band came flooding back, I was nearly in tears.
