Pat Leahy of the Sunday Business Post was sitting in for Shane Coleman today, and he was joined by Terry Prone - chairman of the Communications Clinic - Fergus Finlay of Barnardos, and Sinn Féin MP Peadar Tóibín.

It happened overnight so the outcome didn't make the Sunday papers, but inevitably Conor McGregor's speedy victory against Jose Aldo was the first talking point for the panel.

Fergus observed, "I challenge you to watch it and see [McGregor] hit [Aldo]. He either hit him so fast, or else Aldo slipped and fell. It's almost like a joke.

"When you look at them, they're like cartoon characters, the way they're built. The commentators were kind of settling themselves in and getting ready to go - and then it was over".

Peadar suggested he'd be feeling a little hard done by if he had paid money to watch the 13-second fight. "In hype per second, this has to be a world record," he added.

Moving on the papers themselves, the panel discussed the extensive coverage across today's papers of the fallout from the RTE exposé on politicians and potential conflicts of interest.

"I was actually more disturbed in some ways that by the fact that so many members of the Dáil had inaccurate or incomplete returns on their Register of Interests," Fergus suggested.

Terry caused a bit of a stir with listeners and her fellow panelists with her response to the allegations of corruption in the exposé - and more specifically whether the electorate will vote in people alleged to have conflicts of interest.

She said that "people who are of doubtful morality are often really good philanthropists", suggesting that and local voters choose to vote for people that do something for them.

"We should not condemn those local voters, because of the wisdom of the crowd - they know something we don't know," she added.

Other stories covered include the latest opinion poll, the fluctuating fortunes of Labour, and an in-depth report about the state of the HSE.
