Christy O'Connor: GAA minor switch to U17 has backfired on young players

Pure class, deep respect wrapped up in expressions of huge admiration. In hurling, the real beauty of the teams is often about more than the final score. The players of
@ballygunnerHc

@ballyea_club

Despite all the brilliant hurling played recently, this is the classiest thing any hurler has done. Cork U20 captain Darragh O Sullivan with ref Niall Malone after Cork lost the final to Tipp despite a clear goal not being awarded. Total class, grace & respect

Probably the most incredible stat from a Galway perspective was that their goalkeeper Bernie Power had more possessions than any other outfield Galway player On the other hand, Mayo keeper David Clarke also had more possessions than any outfield Galway player. Surely a first

The total amount of time Seamus Flanagan was on the ball for his 8 converted points in the Munster final was 12.1 seconds. Tony Kelly scored 7 points from play in 17 seconds, 6 of them inside 10 seconds. Execution levels at an incredible standard now

Some credit due to Monaleen and Tooreen, absolutely brilliant game. Lots of wides but the skill level of both teams, the first touch, composure on the ball, plus the quality of scores was off the charts. As good as you’ll see in Croke Park. Two excellent teams. Epic stuff

For anyone doubting this save, just watch the way Noley turns his toes in a millisecond This is high end reaction stuff, a level of technical brilliance professionals worldwide wud be proud of Let us appreciate the absolute class of modern hurling keepers, not mention luck

If a hurler was to be buried somewhere by choice, the pitch in Cushendun would surely top the list Just need to jump the fence for the ice bath after the session! North Antrim is a beautiful place but it’s a real hurling paradise

Incredible day for our club yesterday, back up senior after two heartbreaking final defeats Says a lot about these brilliant players that they have always had Fionn O’Brien, their team-mate who tragically passed away last year, & his memory & legacy so strongly in their hearts
This morning our intermediate panel brought the cup to the grave of Fionn 0 Brien.
Fionn passed away in July 2021 and was a valued member of this panel, a teammate and a friend. Yesterday's win is dedicated to his memory.

So much of elite modern soccer is poisoned by money and greed but raw emotion, spirit and a savage desire to win is the most beautiful way to override all the bad stuff. Also easy to see why Sevilla defied the odds again, and why they keep winning big Europa lge finals

Brilliant stats. The return of Shane has been huge this year but the return of Peter Duggan too, plus the form of David Fitzgerald (who was a sub last year) has helped transform the team. All three have scored, assisted or been fouled for an incredible combined total of 5-76
Shane O’Donnell has come back from serious concussion set backs. The

man has been a more abrasive figure than ever in attack for Clare this summer always seeking out work on & off ball.
