IT CAN’T have escaped anyone at this stage that the slogan for the AIB All-Ireland club championships is ‘The Toughest’.

The sponsors are putting ‘player cams’ on two of the reigning senior camogie champions – Siobhán and Clodagh McGrath of Sarsfields – in today’s semi-finals to illustrate it, but it is a theme that is surely already embodied by Róisín McCormick.
