Irish Times Chequered Flag Crossword

I'm stuck on 27 down if anyone can help- Male at liberty in Monaghan?

Dave C 99

Hi, check out http://www.monaghan.gaa.ie/subcommittees.html

Can u let me know if 73 down is a mistake...think I get what they are asking and have the name that fits but don't think it's the right Q. Tks.

jerryob

Hmmm, Fitzgerald fits, i.e. Davey, but that would be Waterford. Is that the error that you are referring to?

superfootyfan

Did anyone get 4 down the international rules boss in the home of whiskey ??

Pal

malthouse (Aussie manager)

Dave C 99

Yep, that's it Malthouse. The Fitzgerald clue i'd say is wrong.......

There is also a Kiwi batsman called Hira which will fit, dont know if he's aggressive.
Looking for 3d, assuming 11a is french.
