All eyes will be on the Salthill sideline as Brian Cody and Henry Shefflin face off for the first time.

While the overall fare was disappointing, Galway were the better team against Wexford for long periods in their championship opener. Or you can email [email protected] at any time. It’s Cody v Shefflin and Kilkenny v Galway and it’s one not to be missed with a big crowd expected in Pearse Stadium on Sunday (the game is live on RTÉ 2 at 2pm). Winning back to back All-Ireland titles is nothing to be sniffed at. Added to that is the possible absence of the injured Conor Whelan although he is on the bench and as a result there will be extra pressure thrusted on the likes of Cathal Mannion, Brian Concannon and Conor Cooney in attack. In what will be a 48th championship meeting between the sides, Henry will be the ninth different Galway boss to take on a Kilkenny team managed by Brian Cody.

There's one big, dangerous predator quietly waiting in the wings which may disturb this status quo - Kilkenny. TJ Reid will be so difficult to stop even if ...

Swap Mark Coleman to wing-back, with Ciarán Joyce centre and keep him at the D. With Garth Brooks headed for a week in Croker, the costs of building and maintaining massive stadia is questionable for a supposedly amateur organisation. Their midfield and wing-forwards are key to this. You sense Kilkenny are at their best since that 2019 semi-final win, and I see the Cats getting one over on Galway before they meet again in the Leinster final. The sideline clash between Shefflin and Brian Cody is intriguing. Just like Liam Cahill meeting Tipp or Davy facing Clare, Henry will do whatever he can to help Galway win.

Clare got off to a riotous start when comfortably beating Tipperary in Thurles and thanks to Ed Sheeran, they get to come back a week later. They generally have no inhibitions against Clare but were still lucky to beat them last year. Dublin had an excellent win in Wexford, which opens the door to a top-three finish. One is that the late collapse in Wexford Park was an excellent lesson in putting matches away but it was hardly a lesson Galway needed to be taught again. Laois have been cruelly sabotaged by injuries at the very stage they would have counted on giving sustained matches against the province’s top teams to their best players. The big win over Westmeath was shooting practice and they managed to get 13 different scorers on the board.

Henry Shefflin is believed to have turned down the opportunity to work under his old boss Brian Cody with Kilkenny before deciding to plough his own furrow ...

“You can’t have the pupil beating the master in this one, that’s the way he will be looking at it. “Brian Cody will not want to be beaten over in Salthill by Henry Shefflin, mark my words,” Brennan told Ourgame.ie this week. “He got the call from Galway and it was inevitable that he was going to try his hand on the inter-county scene, maybe Galway was far enough from Kilkenny in many respects and he saw it as a clean break.”
