Yet though this will doubtless be painful by the banks of the Nore at the minute, there were a few vital things which went against Kilkenny […]

Guts and effort not enough to trump instinct and knowhow
Limerick… 0-27 Galway… 1-21 Inches. That’s often all the separates glory from gloom. If the break for you, it’ll be the former scenario.

Seeing too much of yourself in others
My mind often fluctuates in thought regarding how Meath’s greatest ever team – that at their zenith between 1986 and 1991 – would fair out in the Gaelic football of today.
