Cyril Farrell believes that the Waterford hurlers can dine at the top table again in 2021.
“If I was Liam Cahill, I’d be looking forward to having Shane Bennett coming back in. He’s a natural forward and that’s what you want. Waterford are picking up very good players. These three or four years, this is the time for them to make the big breakthrough and win an All Ireland. You get your cycle. Limerick have got their cycle and they’re doing it. When you get there, you have do it. To me, it’s a very big year for Waterford. The best time to win an All Star is when you win the All Ireland, that puts the icing on the cake. It’s a great honour but it really puts the icing on the cake when you win an All Star the year you win an All Ireland.”

A Galway flag flies proudly in the crowd
A number of Galway GAA legends are once again making themselves available to talk to those living alone or most in need at this very difficult time.
The GAA chat initiative was first introduced last April and proved hugely successful, particularly with those cocooning. Brendan Mulry of Irish Rural Link is managing the initiative again in association with Galway GAA, Paul Byrnes Media and support from the ‘Keep Well’ Resilience Campaign.
Throughout this latest lockdown a number of Galway football and hurling legends have all very kindly made themselves available to talk to GAA fans on the phone. They include: 3-time All-Ireland winning manager Cyril Farrell, 3-time All-Ireland winner Noel Lane and Joe Connolly who captained Galway to All-Ireland success in 1980 as well as All-Star footballer John Tobin.
