They are senior in both codes now in GAA but donā€™t look like they can really challenge at all

Itā€™s nearly in Limerick

Neil Ronan was/is Ballyhea, his brother Darren was an outrageous underage hurler, came up at the wrong time.

The whole town just revolves around Dairygold Iā€™d say.

I dont think they were brothers, first cousins.

428

There was a cousin Ian as well a small lad. He was a dinger

Just checked, brothers.

Any time we went up to North Cork to play a match, kanturk, mallow, buttevant etc they were easy beat. There was an air of inevitability about it. They didnā€™t want to battle in a close match

Kinsale and back was the complete opposite then. West teams would kill you before accept a loss

431

Def brothers.

Neil hurled junior B for them up to last year! Wouldnā€™t you be delighted to see him arriving into you as a junior b full back

Kanturk hadnā€™t won so much as a duhallow junior championship in either code in 40 years until the early 2000s. Good haul since then and v strong underage both codes last few years

Fermoy was a garrison town? Historically these towns produce very few hurlers. Like Clonmel. Kilkenny would be the exception

Neil is a sound skin. Great that he was still tipping away.

Yes. Gaa club strong enough there as long as I can recall anyway without being exceptional. They lost County intermediate finals in both codes a few years back beaten in bith by Brandon another Garrison Town

436

He was a fine stylish hurler. He ever really nail down a spot? One of those lads that seemed to catch the eye off the bench and would start the next day out only to struggle to make an impact
