Innings, not winnings count as Quane retires

FOURTEEN years after making his debut, Limerick’s outstanding midfielder John Quane has finally decided to retire from inter-county football.

In that period Quane failed to win a championship medal with Limerick being beaten in three Munster finals, 1991, 2003 and 2004, by Kerry.

John’s only rewards from a game he adorned with grace and dignity were a Railway Cup medal in 1990, an All Star nomination which earned him a trip the States, and becoming member of the Ireland Compromised Rules squad which defeated Australia in 2001.
