Jacqui Hurley presents this Reality Bites documentary which starts a discussion around player welfare, professionalism, and other key points from the 2015 All Ireland Championship.
Featured in the film are former Republic of Ireland star Stephen Hunt who Jacqui visits at Ipswich Town FC to have a look at a professional sports person’s life, contrasting it to that of a GAA star.
Jacqui also looks at how Sports Science is influencing the GAA and visits DCU with Prof. Nial Moyna and Offaly’s Brian Darby, to see how a GAA player’s biometrics measured-up in comparison to that of the pros.
Wexford camogie star Mags Darcy who is rehabbing her hip injury and Clare’s Podge Collins who has just undergone surgery for a cruciate ligament injury also feature.
Other contributors include former Armagh footballer Aaron Kernan who has walked away from the inter-county set up to concentrate on family and work life and Clare legend and former Dublin hurling manager Anthony Daly.
