Learning to play in the moment

Until this week, managers, in various codes, would demand to be judged on their records, or their signings, or perhaps, in recent times, how "the group" was getting on with their philosophy.

They might continue to make the same demands, but now, thanks to Darragh Ó Sé, we have a better way to get the measure of these fellows.

Praising Kerry manager Éamonn Fitzmaurice, Darragh wrote: “I always say that if I shot somebody in the morning, Fitzy would be the first call I’d make. He’d know what to do and how to handle it.” Think about it. You know, instinctively, whose numbers you’d want.
