Was James Stafford on that 2001 team? He’s having an incredible year for them at the age of 40ish. Scored a goal in todays drawn final against Blessington. Also popped up with 2 goals in the semi-final victory over Tinahealy. Rathnew aren’t the force of old at all but a mixture of tradition and doggedness has them in the mix for a first Wicklow SFC since 2017 (when they subsequently beat St Vincents).
3 in a row in the Kildare SFC now for Naas. Given they hadn’t won one since 1990 before that it’s a slightly surprising Rosenborg situation developing there. Although with the sheer numbers and quality of set-up there, they are well placed to dominate in both codes.
The galway championship is one of the strongest in the country. Id also hazard a guess loads more Mayo players have played in the Dublin championship than galway ones.
Yeah quite a bizarre dig at Galway football when you consider all Corofin have achieved and how strong Moycullen and Mountbellew-Moylough are now. 3 of the top 20 clubs in @peddlerscross nationwide rankings. Who’s moved to Dublin other than Shane Walsh?
