Mark Landers interview: Taking on Dalo, bringing home Liam and talking into a microphone

In 1999, Mark Landers was the Cork captain who welcomed Liam MacCarthy back to Leeside. Back then, Anthony Daly was a sworn enemy. On Sunday, Landers will wave with the jubilee team, then relish watching a Cork team he believes have stopped imitating their opponents. On Monday he, Dalo and TJ Ryan will go all around the houses to analyse it.

Anthony Daly often jokes on his podcast that he has a mute button for Mark Landers — 25 years ago, Landers pushed the pause button on Dalo.

Cork had an itch to scratch with Clare. At Dundrum House in Tipp the morning of the 1999 Munster final, Landers summoned the troops. Narrative was that Clare had bullied them in ‘98, administering an eight-point trimming at business time in June.
