He got a nice one in the first half too where he bounced the sliotar as 3 or 4 Galway lads were chasing him. Tony Kelly hit a monster of a point too in the first half. I've been quite critical of Shane O'Donnell at times but he was excellent on Saturday. With all the talk about Galway's physicality you would have expected this game to be one that O'Donnell would struggle to make an impact on. He really stepped up though when we were desperately needing scores. Fair play to him. Who got the man of the match? They never announced it on the Sunday Game.

Is there a case for freshening things up a bit the next day, Ian Galvin, David Fitzgerald could be options. Morey struggled a lot I felt, also could the likes of Podge or Reidy be better options from the bench. In just over 2 months, Clare have played Cork, Waterford, Tipp, Limerick, Cork again, Wecford, Galway (with extra time), and now Galway again.,
