The most matches ever in a senior championship?
On fumes by the final. Clare should have beaten them both days but they couldnât shoot.

It was the injuries that did Galway in, Daithi was playing on a fractured ankle, GMac with a torn calf and Hansbury twisted his ankle the week of the final. No depth in the squad to replace them. That number of games wouldnât bother lads at that level.

I donât know I was talking to a lad recently who was second physio that year. He said after the leinster final replay, the hot day in thurles, that they were dead on their feet,and injuries piled up. But that training was lifeless, lads had no energy from that game on. Clare should have beaten them and that was an average Clare team. That was after years heavy training though. The 9 game season came at the wrong time.

I dont know about that. When, 2016? They were miles better teamwork wise in 17 than they were in 15
An abomination of a jersey, the nephew showed up in one recently and I told him to sit on his own side of the fence and dig the fuck in and donât mind his motherâs soft talk.
