All Ireland gold last night, Tipperary v Galway, real classic. Lane lasses into the net in the final seconds and is jumped by a dozen Galway supporters.
I would say in today's games that there would be at least 3 straight reds and 4 or five double yellows. Leahy, was he a dirty shite all the time, he was only 18 in that game last night. And Declan Ryan was as bad, but stroke over some great points. Antrim were represented that year with Gerry McClory doing lines man.
My questions is this, do we prefer the hurling of that time to the type we have at the minute? I'll go for the late eighties early nineties every time. At least Antrim could compete with the big guns then.
