All-Ireland winning hurling captain Eoin Larkin is set to be the subject of this Thursday night’s Laochra Gael episode on TG4.

After successful years underage, Larkin became a cornerstone of the greatest teams of all time, winning eight All-Ireland medals and Hurler of the Year. But in the background he was struggling.

Towards the end of his career with Kilkenny, his mental health declined. He kept his suffering a secret, until he received a phone call from Brian Cody that changed his life.

Laochra Gael returns for a 19th season on TG4 at 9.30pm on Thursday evenings with six new episodes starting from March 25th.
