Galway hurlers didn't bother walking the cup over the Shannon or Suck.
ara sure why bother. it's only been 29 years

Clare crossed the Shannon with Liam 3 times in that period. I realise I'm being pedantic.

the Galway footballers had the bit of class to walk Sam Maguire over the bridge in Athlone back in 1998

Was that to rub Roscommon's nose ?

Wonderful evening in Athenry yesterday with the current All Ireland winners taking on the legends from 87 & 88 in a fundraiser for the Keady family.  It was a great occasion and another opportunity for all the kids to meet their new heroes and get as many signatures on the hurl as possible!!  Michael Coleman still looks like he could do a job in the middle of the field.  County boards get a lot of stick at times but I think they got this spot on.  Well done to all involved.

Is that appeal on Facebook genuine? It looks like it, but did anyone mention it last night in Athenry?

Great idea by GCB.

I struggle with the ethics around online fundraising campaigns and the social inequities that surround them.

I don't understand all the publicity for Keadys death.
there are good men dying every day of the week and leaving families behind them

Good people die every day unfortunately. In our small GAA circle of the globe, Tony Keady was a legend and died very suddenly in the midst of a Galway All-Ireland winning run which extended the newsworthiness of his passing . It would be fantastic if all of us had such great send-offs but such is life I guess.
