A handpassed goal proving crucial.
Pat Delaney was a Rolls Royce of a hurler

Galway lost the second half 1-8 to 0-2. It wasnât even a particularly windy day.
Nasty stuff
The finish wasnât glamorous but it was a brilliant passage of play leading up to it. Iggy Clarkes perfect hook, rob and clearance under pressure before Delaneys catch, solo and lovely vision and flick inside. You donât really see moments like that these days with the spare arm tackling.

A thing of beauty. Smashing point after that as well from Danny Owens after the ball was doubled on twice along the toes of the Hogan.

I believe one of the Connollyâs was going to be brought off at half time snd it didnât go down well with the brothers. Josie Harte wandered in then and the rest is history.

The two Johnnies Flaherty and Mooney came back from the States in successive years to win All Irelands for Offaly.
Great bit of Mick Dunne action there.

Galway had a John Connolly goal somewhat controversially disallowed shortly before half time. Frank Murphy was the ref on the day. Connolly was deemed to have frontal charged Damien Martin in the process of scoring. I must look it up again. Havenât seen it in a long time now. If memory serves me correct, the ball was already in the net before Connollyâs momentum saw him collide with Damien Martin.
Galway were ahead by 6 at half time. A 9 point lead probably might have been too much for Offaly to overcome.
Dixie Chick Laura Lynch, 65. Head on collision outside El Paso Texas.
Presume Iâm still winning this with 2, any challengers?
Michael. There was revolt in the dressing room. Bernie Forde taken out of it courtesy of Pat Fleury I think. I dont think he was subbed, played with double vision.
Of what?
