O’Rourke says qualifier route will help charges gain experience
The heroic display they produced at the Athletic Grounds didn’t offer any suggestion that they wanted to veer off on the scenic route, but their manager is a pragmatist. In his three-year tenure as Armagh manager, the qualifiers have become something of a way of life for the Down All-Ireland winner, but he’s ready and eager to embrace the challenge.
“It’s all about building a team. There’s a lot of young players on that team, and if they want to move on, they have an opportunity to play in the qualifiers,” he said.
