GAA names Hurling Stars of the 80s team

Some of the greatest hurlers never to win an All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship medal will have their contributions to the game acknowledged on All-Ireland finals day at Croke Park on Sunday week (September 8).

The GAA have today announced their 'Hurling Stars of the 1980s', a specially-chosen line-up of 'unsung heroes' and 'county legends' whose names were put forward by an experienced panel of All-Star and former All-Star selectors who covered Gaelic games for the print and broadcast media during the '80s.
