Man of the match in both the semi-final and final is some going, player for the big occasion and just the type of lad needed.
Is Steede related to the ex womenâs rugby player, Fiona, married to the bull Hayes
I very much doubt it, the fact she is from Tipperary means the family tree is unlikely to cross county boundaries and she spells her surname differently. There was a Steede from Belclare who got to the semifinal of Countdown a few years back who I presume is of his clan.

Her father is a staunch Tribesman, doesnât even have too much interest in hurling to be fair but would walk a 100 mile on a cold wet night to watch a football match once one of his greyhounds wasnât running. Not sure what part of Galway heâs from though.
There was an Eddie Steede on the Corofin team that bet Erins Isle in the club final back in the mid 90s
Thatâs his father alright
Is Angie still the club secretary for Isles?
Not Sure. It wouldnât be my club. After some very lean years their underage section is thriving again which is great to see
Not a debut
Plays CF mainly JimmyâŚhe went in goal last seasonâs intermediate championship for peno shoot out and saved two

He wasnât trusty enough
Thought he started against down a few years ago but I could be wrongâŚeither way heâll be a good additionâŚJoyce was and is really trying to get Dathai Burke in with the footballers

Steede gave a year or two playing AFL back in the day, and probably wasnât overly bothered with inter county on his return.

Youâre wrong
What age is he?
Didnât a 46-year-old make their debut for Waterford last year?

He turns 29 in a few weeks. There have been older lads for sure making their full debut but I canât recall any with Galway for a long time.
