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

Dave C 99 · 21-12-2008 02:26AM

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 · 22-12-2008 12:20AM

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

superfootyfan · 22-12-2008 02:27AM

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

Pal · 22-12-2008 10:44AM

malthouse (Aussie manager)

Dave C 99 · 22-12-2008 03:51PM

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