    If ever a legend of the game deserved our support its this man. The years of enjoyment he gave us not only in Waterford but nationwide he truly was/is one of the greats. He has a tough few months ahead and it would be only fitting that we would help him in his hour of need. Here's hoping that not only the GAA people come and support it but all sports people across the 32 counties for one of the greatest deise men ever to grace a sporting arena.

    Looking forward to this already, great cause.

    There's to be an All Ireland preview night in Mount Sion club after the match with a 'significant contribution to also be made to the Irish Heart Foundation at the personal request of Ken' - shows the class of the guy still thinking of others at a time of personal hardship

    This is why GAA cannot be matched

    That isn't a bad idea. I'm close to the organising committee and will mention this to them. Thanks for the input.

    John Mullane to Captain Munster and Eddie Brennan to lead Leinster should be a great evening.

    An absolute legend. One of the most complete and outstanding players that I have had the pleasure to watch in the flesh on a few occasions, even though he usually was the main reason they beat us..:)

    Hope its a great turnout on June 27 for this and we see a decent game rather than the usual 'shadow boxing' associated with challenge games.
    Don't think Fitzy and Cody would have it any other way...:D
