Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome to episode 12 of Word On The Street, where we are talking all things British and Irish Lions ahead of the first test this weekend. This week we asked the public where their loyalties lie, Ireland over Lions or Lions over Ireland, and also whether this concept could work in any other sport. Susanna got the chance to ramble about her favourite sport, Eve got an education in all things rugby, and Rachel joined us from the glorious land of Cork to give her two cents on the GAA as well.Have a topic or thought in mind?
