Pádraic Mannion has been appointed as the new captain of the Galway hurlers for 2020 as they bid to get the Shane O’Neill era in charge off to a flying start with silverware against Wexford in the Walsh Cup final today.

As they look to bring their winning championship run to eight matches in Wexford this Saturday, Pádraic Mannion says Galway are comfortable wearing the tag of All-Ireland champions.

All-Star Galway defender Padraic Mannion has confirmed that All-Ireland winning colleague Jonathan Glynn will be available for their defence of the Liam MacCarthy Cup.
