McGrath is the sort of cunt who uses the word cognisant instead of aware. I dunno how many meetings Iāve been in where the biggest spoofer in the room is almost guaranteed to use that word.

Even spoofers donāt use that word for fear of drawing too much attention to themselves, only cunts use that word.

Reminding me more and more of a young Joe Canning in that they canāt figure out how or where to use him so that heās impacting a game consistently and not on the fringes.
I think his head isnāt in it. I remember the 2017 all ireland. In the final 15 minutes he barely touched the ball. It was like he was dizzy. Hasnāt been the same player since imo.
Iāve had doubts about Ozzie/Aussie since he did an interview saying he couldnāt deal with the pressure of being Hurler of the Year. Alarm bells started ringing for me when he said that.
For the greats that award drives you on, gives the confidence to go out and perform again and again. It seems to have crippled Gleeson though. He has hardly picked a ball in the championship since the Cork semi final in 2017.

Maybe he just likes ground hurling.
The worst HOTY winner of all time. Caught a few high balls against Kilkenny and wins it. An absolute disgrace

I wouldnāt be one to put the boot into McGrath but since heās determined to keep himself on the stage and constantly remind us of " his time with Waterford" I think he deserves a fair bit of criticism. Anyone else who had previously served as their county manager would be very slow to comment publicly on the current set up regardless whether they are an analyst or not and certainly if their own tenure was deemed to be less than successful

Iād say a lot of ex-managers love putting the boot into their replacements the first chance they get. From Galway I canāt think of one that has resisted, Cunninam, McIntyre, Loughnane and Conor Hayes love doing it. Canāt speak for other counties though but when Davy retires heāll let Wexford, Clare, Waterford all have it, so he will.
Weāll fucking let him have it back, so we will.

I think heās a bit naive rather than spiteful.
All in love with the sound of their voices. Mattie murphy, Noel Lane (who was shafted for that buffoon Hayes) even squirrel who had the gravitas and opportunity never drove the boot in that I can recall
That tipp hoor macintyre was never shy of sticking the boot in after.

Baba Keating was the original bitter ex manager
Apparently De Burca and Gleeson are refusing to tog out for Waterford tomorrow night. Donāt know how true that is
Whatās the supposed issue?
Gleesons Mrs is a friend of a friend and if I was him Iād be spending as much time with her as possible.
Presumably with management you would feel
Spoken like somebody who has no clue about the opposite sex, the kind of thing a 14 year old would say
I donāt want to open up a can of worms but can anybody inform me what happened between Tony wall the great tipp centre back and some young Kilkenny forward in an all ireland in the 60s? I was listening to two auld lads arguing did wall hit him on purpose when the Kilkenny lad lost his eye. I may have got some details wrong but id appreciate if anybody could fill me in.
