Two guilty parties as U-21 final row rages

Hell of a game that was on Saturday evening. 

You’d struggle to find another match never mind an U21 All-Ireland final that typified all that is so right and all that is so wrong about Gaelic football than what took place in Parnell Park. Never before has an under-age match unveiled so many leaders. Not potential leaders but ready-made ones.

Tipperary’s football future remains bright. In the face of fierce opposition directed at him, Colin O’Riordan stood as a colossus. Bill Maher is Eamon O’Shea’s loss and Peter Creedon’s gain.
