THE HURLING POD: Davy leaves Waterford | 'I hope it's not Galway next' | All-Ireland semis

After Davy Fitzgerald confirmed that he's stepping down as Waterford manager after two years in charge, All-Ireland winners Paul Murphy and James Skehill joined Will O'Callaghan on (a slightly delayed) Hurling Pod!
The lads also looked at where this weekend's All-Ireland semi-finals will be won and lost as Limerick continue their bid for 5-in-a-row by taking on a resurgent Cork, and Clare look to beat Kilkenny in the Championship for the first time since 1997.
Keep an eye out on Off The Ball's social media accounts for ticketing details for the live roadshow at The Bord Gais Theatre on Friday, July 19th.

Before the season is out, I must say the pod is a mainstay of my week, Skehill’s tactical knowledge is so good and has a great way of explaining it to mere lehman like myself. Murph is always so balanced and is always great and giving you a different POV, and Will, well Will is the 🐐 of podcast present and letting the lads natter away and knowing when to step in, thanks for a great season so far.
Back to giving out and asking for more Dublin coverage next week 👍🏼

Fair play to Skehill pinning his colours to the mast on Davy. If he ever took over Cork (not that it would ever happen) there would be riots.

[@Daynasat]

Fair play skehil straight honest talk

[@MrCharlieadare]

Skehill totally right on davy. He brings a circus and limelight that teams dont need. They need to get heads down and focus on training and gradual improvement. If davy gets galway hel set them back decades.

[@Sineadmcd]

Davy Fitz will only be happy managing Clare

[@siennaodwyer4369]

I could listen to Skehill talking about Limerick all day💚🤍….fingers crossed we get the result🙏👌😀

[@Daynasat]

Davy Fitz is the jose Mourinho of hurling

[@EMMYK1916]

👌👏🤣

[@colmmccarthy4358]

Minus the charisma

[@hughjarce9915]

Fair play to Skehill

[@conorphelan7242]

Flanagan scored a hat trick against the last day. O’Brien did well but it could be horses for courses

[@conorphelan7242]

Always thought Davy would be a good fit for Dublin. No shortage of money in the capital

[@conorphelan7242]

KK v Clare is 50/50 but have to agree with Skehill, Limerick are going to spank Cork

[@johnoriordan7419]

We'll see anything can happen in sport. You have to favor limerick of course I hope it's a good game.

[@tomgreene1843]

No way ..I think Cork could win....good fast hurlers who don't hang about.

[@johnoriordan7419]

@tomgreene1843 hope your right!

[@johnkirby130]

Final preview on July 19th with no Skehill? He’s obviously celebrating Galway’s liberation from Indians #FrTed #weddingmyarse

[@Kevin-lf4xx]

A straight swap between Henry and Davy , saves the two County Boards a fortune in travelling expenses.

[@GRASSorMUCK]

You need to do the lotto this morning

[@gillianrayappen]

It's a pity ye didn't wait another few hours to record this until the news of Shefflin broke. Davy Fitz won't be the new Galway manager. Skehill reflects the general feeling in Galway about Davy. He is definitely not well liked in Galway hurling circles. It's more likely Galway will go internal for their next manager.

[@scoobydee3954]

Davy to Galway, heard it through the grapevine

[@tomgreene1843]

Bad moon rising !

[@conorphelan7242]

Mikey Carey could pick up TK and Lawlor will mark SO’D at 14.

[@luketreacy7252]

Henry for Waterford ?

[@user-hm9ug9fu5x]

Davy looking out to bankrupt another country board

[@250watts]

Skehill is some boy. Why does he hate Tipperary so much?

[@MrCharlieadare]

Henry gone too. Dont think hel ever get the kk job over going outside the county. Maybe biding his time if kiely calls it a day after this year. Waiting in the long grass.

[@johnoriordan7419]

Im saying it for years eddie brennan for cork

[@user-pt1hc1kg1k]

Eamonn o shea

[@Ctg96]

What is skehills problem with Davey? Clearly personal

[@DuringEarlyMornings]

In fairness, he literally outlined a load of reasons over the course of half an hour. You can agree or disagree, but he gave his opinion and the reasons for it.

[@JohnBrosnan-s5c]

Cork stand no chance against Limerick

[@MrCian47]

Lol

[@heffo67]

"The hurling Gods were kind to us..."and then Shefflin leaves Galway within minutes of the podcast going up.
The hurling Gods were only making muppets of ye lads (Skehill is a born muppet btw, nothing to do with the hurling Gods).

[@Castlelong333]

I think you are the three f ING nobodies guy ,

[@roberthalvey8880]

Nearly half a podcast speaking about the chancer Davy , playing the panel like a cheap fiddle
