The type of hurling he will more than likely have us playing is what frustrates. Since Justin we haven't had an attack minded manager and now looks like more of the same.

Are any other candidates bring considered for the job? you are forgetting about Brendan Cummins & John Allen! Who have also been approached by CB delegates directly. It is a complete farce. I am amazed that people still find it within themselves to hold the previous mgmt regime to account! When clearly this is a county board issue!!

It was after being a bad year for Waterford hurlers getting knocked out of the championship by Wexford and losing a big lead to Cork in the Munster final and people were asking would these lads (Shane Walsh and Brick etc) stick with the football as the future looked bright for the big ball, but things actually regressed after this rather than progressed. I didn't know any of them at the time bar Gooch, but looking at the calibre of other players on that Kerry team, Donaghy, Declan O'Sullivan, Bryan Sheehan, Scanlan etc that went onto win multiple All Irelands afterwards brings home the enormity of the achievement. Remarkable
