Monaghan: Galway just want to get out there

The tragic passing of Tony Keady last week, and the outpouring of sympathy it provoked, illustrated yet again the ties that bind the GAA fold.

Fond stories were told about the man and the player on radio and TV, in print and in countless other conversations around the country. Thomas Monaghan found himself sharing a few of his own this week at a press conference.

Monaghan’s father Pat and his uncle Tom played alongside the legendary defender with Killimordaly when the club was pressing for a first ever county senior hurling title.
