Taking stock of the things that really matter

Gaelic football, and sport in general, can be all consuming for those of us at the coalface. Whether you are a player, coach, supporter or anything in between, we allow everything from training to games, and from stats to systems dominate our priorities all too often.

We all regularly bitch and moan about referees, or hard training, or the sacrifices we must make to be involved with a team.

Wins and losses become magnified into something far more significant than they are.
