Brian Cody hails the man who ‘had everything’ - Richie Power

Brian Cody paid a glowing tribute to recently-retired Richie Power yesterday, describing the forward as a player who “had everything”.

Power had to hang up his boots due to a nagging knee injury and Cody describe him as: “A terrific hurler, massively skilful. It showed in the last few years because he was playing through injury, limited — almost close to no serious preparation.

“He came on in the All-Ireland last year and showed what he could do, but going back to the previous year’s All-Ireland, he got two goals and was just outstanding. He made a real difference.
