An Irish mother has a unique way of predicting the outcome for the All-Ireland games.
The All-Ireland finals are approaching as the next two Sundays will be filled with suspense to see who will take home the Liam MacCarthy Cup and the Sam Maguire Cup.
This season, it hasn't been easy to predict the outcome of the games, however an Irish mother believes she has cracked the code to the All-Irelands.
RTÉ Sport journalist Niall McCoy revealed his mother's genius way of predicting the outcome of the games.
McCoy took to X to post that his mother believes that whoever breaks the parade first loses.
The sports journalist'ss post read: "My mother always maintains that whoever breaks the parade first loses. Louth and Dublin both broke first at the weekend. Her prediction method has a better success rate than most."
McCoy's mothers prediction came true last weekend as Louth and Dublin both broke first and both lost their matches.
Thus far, her predictions have been true, however only time will tell if this theory works.
In recent news, it has been confirmed that Kerry will wear their traditional green and gold kit for the All-Ireland football final whilst Mayo will wear an alternate strip.
A GAA statement confirmed that since there is a clash between jerseys and the alternative jerseys "the CCCC held a draw, in the presence of both County Secretaries, to determine which team would wear their traditional jerseys and which would wear their alternative jerseys. Based on the draw, Ciarraí will wear their home kit, and Maigh Eo will wear their alternate.”
In other news, calls for the GAA to introduce greater use of video technology have intensified. This is due to a series of controversial decisions during Kerry's victory over Dublin at Croke Park.
The final score was a 2-18 to 0-20 win to Kerry, however questions have been raised over both of their goals.
Speaking on RTÉ's The Sunday Game, former Mayo footballer Cora Staunton highlighted the score-assist system already used in ladies' football, where officials can quickly review scoring decisions.
Staunton argued that decisive moments in championship matches deserve the benefit of technology.
