  The Week on Off The Ball | LOI Fight Night, Champions Cup Rugby & Lisandro Martinez Goes Nuclear! 16.10.2026 56min

  Welcome to the latest installment of The Week on Off The Ball, our FREE look back at some of the very best sports coverage from the week that was. Eoin Sheahan and Arthur James O'Dea were on hand to talk you through the best of this week on Off The Ball - and what a week it was! From the return of Champions Cup rugby (and all the structural problems holding that competition back) to our memories of Anthony Foley a decade on from his tragic passing, Liam Toland shared his memories of the Munster legend on this week's Wednesday Night Rugby. We had drama on and off the pitch as Shamrock Rovers and Bohemians met in a League of Ireland title show-down, while Eoin Doyle was on hand to share his thoughts on why Lisandro Martinez might have been right in his criticisms of Manchester United, but how wrong he was to air it all out so publicly. For all that and so much more, enjoy this week's installment of The Week on Off The Ball. If you want to get all this and so much more every day of the week, why not become an OTB member now!
