Is The Toughest Trade coming back?
The Toughest Trade (2016–2017) on RTÉ2
About The Toughest Trade
The Toughest Trade ended on March 10, 2017, on RTÉ2. The show concluded after its second season, with the final episode airing on that date.
This series was a sports documentary that explored the lives of GAA athletes and how they compare to their professional counterparts around the world. It was a competition where RTÉ partnered with AIB to test the resilience and adaptability of athletes by having ex-NFL star Roberto Wallace and former England cricketer Steve Harmison swap places with Mayo All-Star Aidan O'Shea and Tipperary hurler Brendan Maher. The participants temporarily transferred to different sports environments, including a premier Australian cricket club and the NFL, to experience the challenges faced by athletes in other disciplines.
Each episode had a runtime of 60 minutes. The series aired across two seasons, starting in March 2016 and concluding in March 2017.
