Caitlin Clark has been the phenomenon of US sports in 2024. Her ultimately unsuccessful quest to end her record-breaking, era-defining college basketball career with an NCAA March Madness win began with a game against Holy Cross College from Massachusetts, and there she met her match – in the form of Irish star Bronagh Power Cassidy.

Bronagh outscored her in the first half and even gained brief notoriety for a ‘Coolock Reducer’ on America’s Darling which drew a chorus of boos from the 15,000 home fans. She’s our guest on the show today.

Plus there’s Ange painting himself into a set-piece corner, Jurgen cancelling his TNT subscription, and Frances Murphy’s TV guide to the weekend’s sport.
