Anto always came across as a hail fellow,well met kind of character,to me.
Iâve met people like that over the years and theyâre nearly always the most ruthless bastards you could ever meet.
Just an observation and by no means a definitive statementđ

He went on the radio instead of self-flagellating after a loss. Heinous sin.

Youd always get a good welcome, a fine pint and plenty slagging inside in Murtys. Daly is as sound as a man gets

Have you been in, itâs very close to my home place. It was a house you would always get great welcome in.
Ya. He was there himself. Some man to tell a yarn. Full of divilment.

Was chatting with the auld lad yesterday.
He was at Gaelic Grounds when Clare bate Cork in 93. He said Daly was full back that day and gave an absolute tour de France. Micheal O Muircheartaigh was chatting with the auld fella afterwards and said it was the best full back display he had seen.
It was an aside to a point my father was making about the two best all round sportspeople heâd seen were from Cork. He said one was Brian Corcoran, and was talking about how he gave Corcoran a pen (he was working at the match) to sign heaps of autographs after the match, despite the fact that he had been dumped out of the championship.
The other was his old friend Brian Murphy, who has won pretty much everything you could win in Gaelic Games (County SH title and National Football League title the only gaps - all stars in both codes, minor, u21, senior in both codes, all Irelands with Nemo, and even a few soccer medals). A thoroughly decent sort according to the auld fella, whoâd have three or four pints with him the night before a league game as it helped him get a good nightâs sleep before a match.
Anyway, not such a cool story bro etc etc

Dalo won an all star in 93 off the back of that display. In the corner though

Thatâs what makes al the hurling podcasts so good.
Hear all these sly funny stories that youâd never hear them say on RTE.

Was it not 94 he won the all star?
How would people rate Daly as a hurler in general? I know he was a great leader on that Clare team but heâd be a good below likes of Lohan and seanie mcmahon Iâd say would he. Would he make a munster team of the 90s for instance?
