Austin Gleeson Appreciation thread

104 degrees mate, Iā€™ve got aches from the balls of my toes to the top of my head.

Yes he was good against the shit teams mate , I understand that

Shouldā€™ve been given a medal for that.

I donā€™t recall that happening but I take your word for it as I wasnā€™t paying too much attention to the match as it progressed.

Who should have won it so?

The Tipp lads are coming down with fever and looking for retrospective red cards they are so irate about this.

Paudie Maher or John McGrath. Gleeson is clearly as talented a hurler as Iā€™ve ever seen but when you do nothing against the best team by a mile that you play in that year then I donā€™t think you should get hurler of the year.

They only played well against shit teams though

Galway are as good as Tipp and both played very well against them

In fairness, itā€™s not easy to get out of Cathal Barrettā€™s pocket.

Iā€™m happy enough to throw up the complaints from the Dublin chairman complaining about it if you can point me in the right direction?

Think it was the Dublin GAA CEO John Costello rather than their Chairman who was in the media complaining about it a couple of weeks ago. I stand to be corrected though.

Cheers. Iā€™d hate to be seen to be picking on tipp

Austin on with Marty there - he thought Seamus Callinan was going to win Hurler of the Year too. So modest.

He voted for Seamie, he told me.

Shur only an idiot wouldnā€™t have tbf.

A goal is a goal

I think Waterford will beat tipp

There is a humility about Austin that is very rare in sporting geniuses.

Class act.
