We all may have preferred to watch him playing for Kilkenny, but you have the feeling Tommy Walsh is adjusting to the life of a pundit quite nicely.

On hand for this weekend's opening weekend of National League fixtures, Walsh stole the show.

Keeping a close eye on Kilkenny's opening day defeat to Cork, Walsh's observations were insightful, but inevitably full of humour due to his curious colloquialisms and accent.

Praising Cork's Tim O'Mahony in one particular segment, Walsh identified a man he sees as "a real hurling man's hurler."

Singing the praises of Richie Leahy and Walter Walsh, the multiple All-Ireland winner with Kilkenny is infectious in his excitement.

When his own brother Padraig made a breaking run out of the box and pointed a great effort, Walsh couldn't help but remind listeners that he had been decent enough in his day too.

However, it was his impassioned speech about Offaly and their "great hurling people" that really stole the show.

Needless to say, with such a wide interest in the opening fixtures of the hurling calendar, Walsh's contributions did not go unnoticed.
