The games that many will miss out on.
This year's Championship, in both hurling and football, will be an absolute belter. There are more games taking place than in any championship previous.
The only problem is that the GAA agreed on their television plans for the year before they agreed on the championship re-structure, and by proceeding without altering those plans, that means a host of these games won't make it to television.
And if you're hoping to catch up with them on The Sunday Game, you probably won't be getting as much in that line either due to the sheer volume of games taking place on different weekends and the time pressures that will consequently exist for that programme.
How about some midweek highlight shows?
On Friday afternoon,
RTÉ announced the 31 live games they will show during the 2018 Championship. 14 other games will be televised on Sky Sports.
As it turns out, the Munster hurling championship is RTÉ's baby. Seven of these games will be televised in comparison to three in Leinster.
Meanwhile in the football, two games in Connacht, Ulster and Leinster will be shown while the Munster final will be the only one to make it to screen.
