Babs: I’d say we’d beat the current team by 25 points

Diarmuid O’Flynn: “When did ye first came across each other?”

BABS KEATING: “At minor, with the county. The school I played with, the High School here in Clonmel, wasn’t good enough to compete against Pat, in Thurles CBS. I cycled in to school, eight miles, and I don’t know if you were ever out that road, but it’s a lovely drive — not so nice though if you’re going home from school on a dark evening with wind and rain, tired and hungry, facing up to Knocklofty Hill and the belly falling out of you!”
