Collins driven on by courageous comeback

GALWAY captain David Collins has more reason than most to relish tomorrow’s NHL final against Cork.

Two years ago he suffered a horrific ankle break while playing for Connacht in the M Donnelly inter-pro series, an injury which threatened his playing career.

But after a series of operations and intense physiotherapy programmes, the Liam Mellows man returned to the county colours in their victory over Limerick earlier this season.
