Old order had fresh look
IT’S been a while, hasn’t it? There must be something positive to be said about spending two months on the flat of your back, but, having watched the business end of the GAA season go tearing past, one exhilarating game after another, I can’t think of anything.
Would have been nice to have made it back for the two All-Ireland finals; however, when the surgeon who fixed your spine tells you that the first instrument he used was the scalpel, the second was a Black and Decker drill, you tend to stay in your box, follow instructions to the letter. Second time round (first operation was in 1996), there would be no rushing this one.
