Antrim Hurling

[imtommygunn]

Mcmullans may challenge that. Seamus, Dominic, frankie, paudie and Damien all brothers? Maybe not all on a winning panel at once. I am sure Donnellys in 80s too. Looking back at those teams on saffron Gael there were more brothers than I thought. Either 4 or 5 though - I don't think more though... Can't think of big loughgiel or Ross's families. Not that many organs?

For likes if Rossa you'd the Murray's and two Murphy's , two or three Rogans on various championship winning teams that I can think of quickly

Yeah they were all brothers. Dominic, Seamus and Frankie all won a championship at one stage. Then later Seamus, Frankie, Paudie and Damian all played at the same time.

their sisters Sally, Sinead, Helen and Majella all won the Antrim camogie championship in 1994. Pretty amazing sporting family.

Would there not of been a lot of McGarrys on the Loughgiel panels over the years?

How many donnellys were there? Brian, Eddie, dessie, Eddie and another one who wasn't county- Seamus maybe? Were  there any more?

Not sure on mcgarrys. Definitely a few playing but can't remember that many though wouldn't recall the 80s so much.

Wee Terry was handy hurler too but he in his own words was "the runt of the litter" because he was small. I don't mind Nicky ever hurling back in the day, think he had problems with his eye sight. Probably the most famous GAA family in Antrim.

Lots of good stories to. Like the day Seamus and Dominic never showed up to school and the head master new where to find them. Hurling away down in the local pitch.

I forgot there was a Terry.

Ballycastle's team is an interesting one. They had some great hurlers over the years too (and still produce some very capable ones though they seem to be fewer these days). I think looking at it there may have been 6 donnelly brothers.

Terry and Nicky were both good hurlers. nicky played in all the good underage teams through the 80's and started all the time right up to U21 level but im not sure why he didnt play on anymore.

Mushy hated training with a passion when it involved running of any kind. i mind him telling us while yarns of excuses he would make up to avoid running  i remember him making us take a nip of wiskey before going onto the pitch before a county final when he took our U21 team lol a brilliant character and hurler and someone ive a lot of respect for.

Totally different players and style, for me AD was a very smart hurler and Shane was explosive and exciting to watch.

Good point.

Rossa's team in the SG today. Some handy hurlers over the years.

Not going to complain too much about that team, I'd say there was at least 12 that were certs, and then the rest is down to your own perception.
