Stephen Rochford replaces Joe Brolly for RTÉ coverage of All-Ireland replay

DONEGAL COACH Stephen Rochford has been drafted in to replace Joe Brolly on the RTÉ panel for Saturday’s All-Ireland final replay.

Rockford will join Pat Spillane and Ciaran Whelan as analysts alongside presenter Joanne Cantwell for the Dublin-Kerry rematch.

Brolly will take no part in any of RTÉ’s coverage of the game.

Rochford has appeared previously this year as a pundit on RTÉ for the Kerry-Tyrone semi-final. 

As Mayo manager, Rochford lost two All-Ireland finals to Dublin, one of them also after a replay. Last week, it was confirmed that manager Declan Bonner and his back room team, including Rochford, would be staying another year in charge of Donegal.
