All-Ireland champions Kerry and Dublin coming to the boil nicely while Zac Tuohy set to become record Irish appearance holder in AFL
“I’d love to do it [play for Laois]. I’m very public about the fact that I want to do it. Hopefully I have a couple of years left here, so as long as my body lets me I‘d love to play at least one or a handful of championship games for Laois, but we’ll have to see how I pull up post-career.
“I can fairly categorically tell you I will be playing club football with Portlaoise, if my body lets me, I’d also like to also play intercounty but will definitely play for Portlaoise.”“When teams are able to play this kicking game, it proves again how devastating a weapon it can be. “Basquel’s goal in the first half came straight from a kick pass, even if for me he finished it very easy. The second goal was a turnover from Mannion, but it was that kicking game that had stretched Mayo.
“To play that game, you need the full complement of good-kicking footballers. That’s probably the root of the differences here. It’s not just like flicking a switch, you can’t just suddenly decide to play that way. If I’m kicking the ball to you, it’s no good unless you’re expecting the kick from me.”interesting appraisal of the free-to-air broadcasting of championship matches and how it’s about to receive government scrutiny.
He writes: “The saga of GAAGO has also come to an end for this year. The remaining championship matches are all free-to-air but next week will see the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport and Media shift its beady gaze to the ‘future of sports broadcasting.’”
