Delaney determined to finish the job

Influential defender JJ Delaney believes that his Kilkenny side have what it takes to claim a historic five in-a-row of All-Ireland SHC titles at Croke Park this Sunday.

The 28-year-old, like most of his Kilkenny peers, knows almost nothing else other than title successes - the only year he has not won any accolade, either based on personal or team performances, was back in his debut year of 2001.
