OTB Breakfast Bite | Skort-gate ends + R...

OTB Sports
About this episode

This is Friday's OTB Breakfast Bite - your FREE bitesize taster of this morning's full Off The Ball Breakfast.

On this morning's show, we talked Lions and previewed tomorrow's Investec Champions Cup final with both Ronan O'Gara and Alan Quinlan.

With skort-gate now combined to the dustbin of history, we spoke to Dublin Camogie's Karl O'Brien + our own Rachel Sheehan, who attended last night's Special Congress.

And Arsenal legend Emma Byrne joined Scarlett Heron in previewing the Women's Champions League final.

But this morning's Bite first checks in with Dublin Camogie chair, Karl O'Brien to reflect on Special Congress allowing shorts in the sport, and then we speak to Ronan O'Gara about tomorrow's Champions Cup decider.
