WATCH: To be the man in black; a day in the life of a GAA ref

“We all can’t be Henry Shefflin or Joe Canning - the next best thing to playing hurling is to referee.”

The cameras followed Alan Kelly from Moycullen in Galway when he refereed the Allianz Hurling League game between Dublin and Cork in Croke Park last weekend.
