Setting the scene for 2026

The National League gets underway this coming weekend and ahead of this Rob is joined on the pod by Edwin McGreal and Billy Joe Padden to set the scene for another year of inter-county action for Mayo, who this year are now managed by Andy Moran. The lads look back on how first seasons in charge panned out for other Mayo managers in the past and consider how Andy Moran might approach the year ahead. The benefit of using a large number of players in the FBD is discussed, while the lads also chat about last Sunday's frustrating loss to Galway and why this rivalry always matters, regardless of when Mayo and Galway meet.
