We were above in Ballyshannon for the League game this year and I was looking around me, I’d never been there before, and I mightn’t be there again. At the end of June 2024, Kerry and Derry stunk Croke Park out in an All-Ireland quarter final. If that wasn’t the nadir, the All-Ireland final of the same year involving Galway and Armagh cleared the house for good. We played a game against Derry in Croke Park, we won the game, but it was a dog of a game, tough to watch, tough to be involved in it. “Well, it’s not all about winning, but you get more of a kick where there is good football, pace and honesty in the game, good scores.

Daredevil: Born Again returned to our Disney+ devices this week, and it reminds us that there are two social models left for the United States to choose from. Far be it from me, a writer with the woke Irish Times, to kink-shame anyone, but I have to ask: Daredevil, is this violent leather play really a stable basis for social change? Daredevil: Born Again is definitely in the latter camp. On The Hunt: Prey vs Predator (Channel 4) members of the public end up hunting the deadliest prey of all: middle management. When a predator catches one of the prey, the predator takes that money and the two then switch places.

The report focused in particular on the impact of this global heating on sea levels. The report prompted an academic in Trinity College Dublin to warn that “emergency evacuation processes” are “urgently needed” to prepare for what is to come. Prof Iris Moller, a coastal geomorphologist, pointed out that Ireland was fortunate that the last four extreme storms have largely occurred at low tide. If Storm Chandra had occurred during a high spring tide, she said, the situation would have been many times worse. But as recent reports have shown, national efforts to improve flood defences lag hopelessly behind current circumstances, let alone prepare the State for what is coming down the tracks.
