Lovely cracklely behind the scenes footage of the weekend of the 1999 All Ireland hurling final here. About 18 minutes in is the on pitch celebrations, heās swinging the camera around capturing it allā¦ JBM, the Banks, Frank Murphy, as Mickey OāConnell says in the background, out-fucking-standing.
Last couple of minutes, Cork a point up.DJ kicks for goal from close range. Somehow Cusack gets his ankle behind it and it goes out for a 65. Unbelievably no 65 given by the stupid umpire. Cork go on to win by a single point.
Cork have had a break or two in all ireland finals in that regard e.g. ger cunningham split open in 1990 saving Martin Naughton shot yet umpire waves wides!!
great footage, JBM looks as fit as some of the players. surrounded himself with serious legends in his back room team - Johnny Crowley, Seanie Leary, Tom Cashman
An awful match, but it was my favourite All Ireland on a personal level, a few lads that I grew up with and was teammates with winning their first All Ireland, nobody have them a chance at the start of summer, great celebrations
True, many had achieved some underage and colleges success, but they were bullied by Clare in 98 and it was felt they were a couple of years away at least, teams with an age profile like that hadnāt won many if any hurling all Irelandās till then
