I’m happy because their families, wives and partners have put in a lot of effort as well and they get to see the performance on the field. “I think when we started first, Covid was very much to the fore but the relationship between the group became very, very strong and even for myself and Richie (O’Neill), our connection with that group of people and the county board has become strong over that period. That’s what these players do behind the scene and they put in a massive effort and go out and play in a colosseum like that and in an atmosphere like that. I just hope the players who were out there on reflection say that they enjoyed the occasion. And then I think we coughed up a few silly points in the first half. “Look, I’m not going to come out … to be fair, Limerick won the match and (they’re) the better team.

It’s a long road back because there are a lot of teams looking in today that would love to be up here and would love the opportunity. There are loads of good hurlers up there so it’s just trying to put the small fine details to it to see can you go on to the next level. I think that played a part but our shooting needed to be really on the money and it was a little off." There’s something in this group’. And I think we can say that again today. "I think they’ve made great strides, yes, and there’s a great group of people around, a great backroom team. "Obviously, you’re underdogs, the pressure is not as much on you so you can really go after the All-Ireland champions.

That changed in the second half of the year when Binnington struggled and Husso stepped up with a .917 SV% from the beginning of January to the end of the season. The Nuggets have signed first-round draft picks Christian Braun and Peyton Watson to their rookie contracts, the team announced in a press release. The 27-year-old will be unrestricted in 2023 and is currently in a position to land a significant raise of his own. That was good enough for him to lead the Blues in scoring, giving them a much deeper offensive group in the process. Oregon and Washington reportedly hoped to follow UCLA and USC to the Big Ten, but were told the conference is waiting for Notre Dame to make a decision about realignment. He caught a touchdown in the first quarter for the first score of the game and finished with two catches for 52 yards. Cornet responded by winning the final six games of the match to defeat the world's top player in straight sets. The record was still in jeopardy in the bottom of the ninth with the score tied 2-2, as the Astros would've needed another six strikeouts to tie the MLB record for the most in an extra inning game. Beckham tore the ACL in the same knee in October 2020 with the Browns, had surgery and returned for the 2021 season. Albon braked to avoid the wreck and was hit from behind by Sebastian Vettel, sending Albon into the barrier and rebounding into the cars of Yuki Tsunoda and Esteban Ocon. Zhou, Albon, and Russell were all quickly ruled out for the remainder of the race, but Tsunoda, Ocon, and Gasly were able to continue. The Houston Astros tied an MLB record Sunday with 20 strikeouts in a 4-2 win against the Los Angeles Angels, becoming one of eight teams to ever reach that total in a nine-inning game. It was a cracking game of hurling and the former cat lived every ball on the sideline.

HENRY SHEFFLIN has called on Galway to kick on from yesterday's heartbreaking All-Ireland semi-final loss to Limerick.The Tribesmen brought the reig.

“I’ve often referenced it to the lads, I probably wasn’t quite sure myself. “So yeah, it’s just very disappointing. And some of them lads have been there, they’ve won an All-Ireland so you’d hope so, you’d hope so.

Henry Shefflin reflected on his first year in charge of the Galway senior hurling side, after Galway fell to a narrow All-Ireland semi-final..

Sport and hurling for us is your saving grace because that’s what you love doing. “I’m after coming from a dressing room that is absolutely devastated in there,” Shefflin explained when speaking to Sky Sports after the game. “But they had that feeling last year in Thurles when they went out very easily, so they’ve made great strides. Sport and hurling for us is your saving grace because that’s what you love doing.” “Sport and hurling for us is your saving grace because that’s what you love doing..” “That’s what gets you away from the trials and tribulations of life.”

Galway manager Henry Shefflin reflects on his team's 0-27 to 1-21 defeat to Limerick in the All-Ireland Hurling Championship semi-final, and discusses his first ...

I just hope the players who were out there on reflection say that they enjoyed the occasion. But, I suppose, from a management point of view and from a group point of view, we said we wanted to do ourselves proud on the field today and I think we achieved that." "Especially coming up against such hot favourites, you speak a lot about getting a performance and I would have spoken about that myself - that's what we needed.

The sense that Henry Shefflin has long tired of being the focus of body language experts overwhelmed on Sunday.

It might not have been reflected on the scoreboard but it was in how Limerick willed this their way. Murphy would vary his puck-outs, was not fearful of going long, buoyed by how well his team competed when Limerick found out that aerial dominance was not a given. They managed that, which is not a bad building block for the future. That, admittedly, came only after realising that the price to be paid for bunkering end would be death by a thousand cuts which saw them alter their defensive shape when falling behind early. True, this was his probably his team's best performance - contrasting greatly with their rather anaemic display in the Leinster final - yet it was hardly one that invited much comfort. What will niggle more than the nation's obsession with his social etiquette is that he will have felt his team could, and possibly should, have grabbed that very chance.
