Dublin great Charlie Redmond has insisted there’ll be no ‘resentment’ if Diarmuid Connolly beats a lionheart performer like Bernard Brogan to an All-Ireland final bench spot.

Tyrone’s Richie Donnelly has rejected Sean Cavanagh’s claim that Mickey Harte’s time as manager is up, insisting he’s still the right man to guide them forward.

Update: In a statement today the Galway Camogie Board said they did not believe Galway Camogie was best served by "indulging in a public spat with an ex-manager or his backroom team."

Barely an hour after Dublin’s 2013 All-Ireland football final win, manager Jim Gavin spoke in grave tones of what was coming down the line.
