no relation

John Galvin’s stock from Finuge so he is related to Galvins from Finuge

Paul is from down the road in Lixnaw, not connected to the Finuge , Galvin;s at all. The Lixnaw gang kick football with Finuge as no football in Lixnaw. A few from Finuge make the opposite journey to Lixnaw to play hurling.

Some nice bloodlines from the starting 15 from the seniors too the last day, never mind the minors.

Quaid (father and uncle both hurled with Limerick)
Finn (father hurled with Limerick)
English (cousin is Darragh Fitzgibbon current Cork regular)
Lynch (a few of his uncles hurled with Limerick)
O’Donovan (father played football with Limerick)
Hegarty (father hurled with Limerick)
Flanagan (father hurled with Limerick)

I might be missing others.

does mick Fitzgibbon capped as a flanker for Ireland in the rugby come into family equation at all?

No better bred that kyle hayes.

Smark · May 22, 2018, 10:28pm

FlakeAway · May 22, 2018, 10:28pm

Liam Ryan (Wexford)

I’ve seen others mention this. I actually have always enjoyed Marty’s commentary. He’s better than that insufferable ape Ger Canning any day.

Isn’t declan hannon related to that legendary tipp centre back played after your man wall my dad always lectures me about those two ?

Breaking_my_balls · May 22, 2018, 10:32pm

Hannon’s uncle hurled with Tipp? Stakelum?

Isn’t Graeme Mulcahy of the Tommy Hanley bloodline?! More than half of the fucking Kilmallock team are descended from him! cc @balbec

Pat Ryans two brothers hurled with Limerick

Barry Hennessys father hurled in goal for Limerick

Aristotle · May 22, 2018, 10:36pm

Barry O’Connell’s grandfather too, I think.

anon32894817 · May 22, 2018, 10:37pm

He won a minor all Ireland with limerick in the 50s, John egan @TreatyStones @Julio_Geordio was on that team and possibly donal Flynn too who’d be a grand father of cian magner Flynn

We all like a bit of twee-ness now and again but it’s almost non stop in his commentary.

“That’s a point, that’s a wonderful score AND THAT is Joe Canning.”

“And that is a score to get the people of Limerick up off their feet here in Páirc Na Ngael in the year of 2018.”

Breaking_my_balls · May 22, 2018, 10:38pm

Barry Nash’s father and uncle obviously

Aristotle · May 22, 2018, 10:39pm

The Morrisseys? Did some uncle or granduncle of theirs play for Tipp?

anon32894817 · May 22, 2018, 10:39pm

There was one incident where cian lynch is on the ball and he is like oh it’s in the blood and the ball breaks to Paudie maher and he says “speaking about blood Paudie maheeeer”

FlakeAway · May 22, 2018, 10:41pm

Pat Ryans brothers? Michael & who is the other one again ?

Breaking_my_balls · May 22, 2018, 10:43pm

Both Canning and Morrisey are shit commentators. Mac Dara Mac Donncha on TG4 is better than both even if he had to do it in the bastard English tongue
