Henry Shefflin buoyant on prospects of Kilkenny five in a row

The Cats have two All-Irelands in a row and the momentum is building nicely. And, this could well be the team to win the historic five-in-a-row, according to Henry Shefflin.

“I certainly hope they will anyway, they’re on a good track at the moment,” he said. “It’s a very difficult thing to do, it’s not history for no reason. But records are made to be broken, so maybe someday it will happen.”

The highest scorer in Championship history, and arguably the most talented athlete in the history of the GAA, Shefflin was speaking last night at the launch of Henry Shefflin: The Autobiography.
