George Hamilton was outraged and said Stevie should be fined a week’s wages. This was in the days when rte showed a saturday match
Cunt still has it I’d say
Everything he knows?
Tessio marked him out of it in the minor final. Hope he wasn’t his hurling coach !
Halcyon days. You’d have lads here ready to flay RTÉ for not still showing those games
He scored a point that day all the same that was one of the best I’ve ever seen in Croke Park. Doubled on a ball overhead from 30/40 yards.
It was 70 yards out surely?
My initial thought but I factored in tricks of the memory.
Somewhere between the two I’d say
Did he give her a tenner ?
That’s some score.
That’s what made hurling great. The clash of the ash, the instinctiveness, the freedom. Destroyed by systems and an obsession with possession. A totally different sport.
He was playing centre forward I think?
Agreed. There’s no room for that sort of street hurling anymore.
That owl Dublin thing of a roving number 13.
If he did that now he’d be taken off.
He’d be fucked out of the academy long before
You couldn’t be having lads taking on low percentage shots like that
Are Quinn and Shane long the only two senior soccer internationals to be county underage hurlers?
