Critics of Seán Óg ‘laughable’

JOHN GARDINER has described criticisms of Séan Óg O hAilpín earlier this season as laughable.

The 33-year left-wing back was, by his own admission, “beaten up a yardstick” by Galway’s Damian Hayes in April’s league final but proved that reports of his demise were much exaggerated in the championship opener against Tipperary.

So too, for that matter, did Gardiner and Ronan Curran.
