Is this another example of the demands placed on players that aren’t even professional?

A surprise. Paul Conroy at 35 years of winning footballer of the year should have told him he had a few years left yet but perhaps some injury he had that wasn’t talked about?

For me top 5 player ever, could do everything and absolute colossus – but says to everyone the dubs are v weak, the next few Sam’s are for anybody

Unbelievable role model. A joy to watch. A proper leader . Class act. Huge loss to gaa just as much as it is for the dubs.
