It's been a week to remember on the World Service, for none more so than our own proud Galweigen and 'Top Red' Ciaran Murphy. We were delighted to chat with hurling legend Joe Canning on the latest edition of our 'I'll Tell You Who Wrote It Sec

"Too much winning", we cry, as Ireland march relentlessly towards another grand slam. The expectations are now so high that a flurry of penalties in the second half and some aimless attacks in the first half against a young Wales side have us d
