Kerry Galvin-ised to meet challenge

After winning the 2007 All-Ireland final against Cork, Paul Galvin told the media that “the last 100 years was riding on that 70 minutes of football. The fear of losing to Cork was driving us”.

In his mid-20s at the time, his words illustrated his ability to harness the dread of being remembered in infamy.

Now 32, a bit of fear about losing a fourth championship game to Tyrone wouldn’t go astray.
