The championship summer is almost upon us, and RTÉ have announced their picks for televised GAA games for 2025.
Last year's TV selections brought up much debate, with several high-profile Munster SHC games kept behind a paywall on the GAA GO streaming service.
The decision to move those games away from terrestrial TV was a move heavily criticised by some major figures in the GAA, with Dónal Óg Cusack perhaps the most vocal.
It would appear that RTÉ and the GAA were listening to those criticisms, judging by the list of televised fixtures released by RTÉ on Tuesday afternoon.
Unlike last year, all four of Cork's Munster senior hurling fixtures are drafted for coverage by RTÉ, meaning that fans will not have to scramble to catch their clash with Limerick.
Given the amount of focus on that fixture's absence from the RTÉ schedule last year, it seems a deliberate move from those involved to respond to criticism.
Elsewhere, RTÉ's GAA coverage for 2025 begins on April 6th with the mouthwatering Ulster SFC clash between Donegal and Derry in Ballybofey.
The full list of televised fixtures is below, and includes the All-Ireland football, hurling, and camogie finals, as well as every provincial football and hurling final.
