For 1 hour Thomas Niblock asks him about what changes he’d introduce, aims for the association and going again after failing to be elected three years ago.There are issues. Jarlath gives a unique insight into GAA thinking around the Glen-Kilmacud debacle. We talk about the forward mark, integration with the Camogie Association and the LGFA, amateur status and his plans to tackle those challenges.If Jarlath is elected, he becomes the first President from North of the border in almost 30 years. Perhaps not extraordinary- but significant. Orangemen in his school, an interest in British culture and making the GAA more open to Unionist inclusion. It’s a fascinating insight.What else? The underage grades- they’re going to change and that will delight most people.Oisin McConville challenges Jarlath, his thoughts on where the GAA could be improved and the future ahead of us all.It’s frank, insightful and a brilliant episode of the GAA Social.
