Episode 11 - Oisín McConville

Real Talks with Alan O'Mara

An All-Ireland winner with Armagh, Oisin McConville was also a key member of the Crossmaglen Rangers club that won more titles than any mantlepiece could handle. To most supporters, Oisin was living the dream throughout his playing career but the stark reality was that away from the highs of places like Clones and Croke Park, he was dealing with a chronic gambling addiction in his day to day life. It was a real pleasure to sit down to reflect on his journey, his transition out of playing a game he relied on so much and discuss the incredible life lessons he has learned along the way, After the success of the first ten episodes of the Real Talks podcast with current GAA players, we will be bringing you another ten truly unique conversations over the coming weeks with living legends of Gaelic Games. Our next stop will be Kilkenny.
