Olympics Daily: Ireland robbed in the boxing but bag a bronze on the water
00:00

Sinéad witnessed her fourth medal of the Olympic Games - more than many journalists see in their entire sports writing careers - at the Nautical Stadium as Daire Lynch and Philip Doyle crossed the line in third in the Double Sculls.


Gav spent the day wrapping his head around the various controversies surrounding boxing so he could explain them all to our listeners in a clear-eyed, thoughtful manner. Plus, he brings us the detail of just how bad that decision was for Daina Moorehouse.


Olympics Daily will bring you all the action from Paris 2024 every day - from the Irish medals (fingers crossed) to the scandal and gossip (we’ve already got some) - with Gavin Cooney and Sinéad O’Carroll reporting from across the city.
