I am not a boxing fan. I absolutely respect their dedication and skill, but the sport is not for me. That being said, last night was amazing. What that woman has done for Irish sport, and for Irish women's sport in particular, cannot be overstated. Fair play, Katie. You proved them all wrong.

In the past 4 years I've been in so many stadia seeing women perform. The Aviva many times. Tallaght. Brighton. Exeter. Croker. Every time I cynically say as I walk through the dense crowd of fans "nobody gives a fuck about women's sport". Too many times I heard it. And I enjoy the chuckle now.

Last night watching history was simply incredible. The crowd was insane, the single best version of Amhráin na bhFian I've ever heard. And Katie signed off exactly as she deserved. The single greatest Irish sportsperson there has ever been.

So my kids do swimming at the weekends. Parents are all poolside or up in a gallery. Phone use is not allowed. Because of obvious reasons. Two weeks in a row I've seen 3-4 men using their phone. One recording his kid. They've all been told not to. Still do it. They just don't care.

I saw the beginning of this conditioning recently. Boy in my son's class is friends with a girl. Another boy began bullying him for liking a girl. Accused them of kissing each other. Boy 2 learns not to be friends with girls unless you're kissing them. Girls have one purpose, it's not friendship

It's extremely possible to hate women while thinking you appreciate them!

If a heterosexual couple have a child together, using donor sperm, and the husband is Irish, that child can get an Irish passport. If a same sex couple have a child together, using donor sperm, and the non-birthing parent is Irish, the child CANNOT get an Irish passport. Our system is homophobic.

In the photo, a passport open in a stamps page.  It has a blue and purple gradient with the GCN logo and the article's title that reads: "Irish woman in same-sex relationship ordered to return daughter’s passport". At the bottom of the image, a message says: "Read more on www.gcn.ie at the link in bio".

It's happened We're sorry. Ish. The innevitable Irish debate about who should wear the 10 jersey for Ireland. Munster v Leinster. I know, I know, it's been done to death. But this time WE'RE ALL AGREED. Have a listen now and tell us where you fall on the great outhalf debate.
