Counting his blessings

In guiding De La Salle College to back-to-back Harty and Croke Cups in 2007 and â08, the Coolderry man and Derek McGrath were joined at the hip.
When McGrath was appointed to succeed Michael Ryan as Waterford manager last October he asked his work colleague and clubmate to become involved. Aside from their relationship, it made sense: nine of the team that started the first Munster quarter-final game against Cork in May played under their tutelage in the school.
