Seán Mulkerrin: Galway forwards have more in them

21 June 2022; Galway and Oileáin Árainn footballer Seán Mulkerrin pictured at the launch of AIB’s new series, The Drive, which explores the adversity faced by inter-county players in the modern game and what drives them to pull on the jersey year after year. Hosted by Ardal O’Hanlon, The Drive features the stories of four inter-county players and their journeys on and off the pitch, celebrating the incredible perseverance showed by players across the country, who despite logic, can’t quit, no matter how tough it gets, because Tough Can’t Quit.

It isn't much consolation but injury has at least spared Seán Mulkerrin the prospect of regular training ground chasings from Shane Walsh and Damien Comer.

Normally the Galway full-back would line up on one of them in training and do his best to keep them in check, with varying degrees of success.
