A tour de fucking France
Started watching it, one of the first things you see is that cunt Barrett diving again looking for a free (albeit he passed out to his right). Cunt.
The first 3 points from play were outstanding efforts tbf
I can’t let it go. I’m at stage ‘Eamon Cregan in 1987’ rattled over it.
One of the great ones of the last 20 years. Enjoyed watching him.
That teeth picture when he got clattered, though…
Funny career. Petered in and petered out. But there was a blaze of brilliance in between.
That yellow helmet was iconic.
Pace power and skill. A great hurler for sure. Probably down the all time Tipp list a bit as it wasn’t the longest career.
Joey Holden got some smoking there. You’d wonder how Cody stayed looking in at him.
Unreal operator altogether. When the ball went into Seamie and he threw a casual flick of the hurley at it and had it in his paw, a score was inevitable. One of the last of a dying breed of full forward.

One of the last great exponents of the first time pull, he was surgical with it. Took a few years to get going and disappeared in a lot of games. But won tipp a lot of games too. Perfected the hit on the turn and personified that tipp teams ruthlessness. Serious player.

Like all great forwards Callanan knew where he was dangerous and stayed where he was dangerous.
A genuine Hall of Famer.

Its surprising theres not. Leinster GAA have one, dont the other Provincial Councils?
Every year, new inductees and their guests are invited to the GAA Museum for an induction ceremony where they are officially welcomed into the Hall of Fame by Uachtarán Chumann Lúthchelas Gael.
Need to make a bit more out of that you’d feel
Its a pity Tipp repeatedly failed to win back to back All Irelands, hence excluding Callinan from the All time great conversation.
Absolutely! Have you seen it?
Get his name right you fucking cur
