Moore: We want to make history

It’s not the same as New Zealand where every single All Black who pulls on that famous shirt will do everything in his power to avoid becoming a member of the first side to lose to Ireland.

Nevertheless it’s a truth and a hard truth that no Leinster player, and no Kilkenny player especially, will want to be a member of the first team to lose to Galway in a Leinster final and watch a team from west of the Shannon take the Bob O’Keeffe Cup with them.

Galway know that and captain Fergal Moore is anticipating a hell of a battle in Croke Park tomorrow.
