GAAGO blasted as fans slam lack of hurling fixtures on free-to-air TV

The lack of Championship hurling matches shown on free-to-air TV in recent weeks has angered GAA fans - and things don't get much better this weekend.

Similarly, last Saturday's double hurling header of Wexford v Galway and Waterford v Tipperary was shown on GAAGO, while RTE broadcast the Munster and Connacht football finals of Clare v Kerry and Galway v Mayo respectively live on Sunday.RTE will again focus on football this weekend, showing the Leinster decider between Dublin and Louth, as well as the Ulster final of Armagh v Donegal, much to the anger of hurling fans.

"I think GAAGO is a great option but we’ve gotten the balance completely wrong here and everyone knows it. The exact same issues were raised last year but it seems the GAA has buried its head in the sand."
