Séamus, famous for the push (or was it the shove!) that resulted in the ball visiting the back of Charlie Nelligan’s net, put the caidhp a’ bháis on Kerry’s 5 in-a-row dream! The ‘82 final was a milestone in the history of the GAA and, ní nach ionadh, was’drawn down’ by the visiting Baile na Maor mentors as they learned in awe of the achievements of the Austin Stack Club. On Saturday they were greeted by our club’s latest All-Ireland medal holder, Jack Ó Muireagáin. In ’92 both teams (KY v OY) played each other in a charity match in Connolly Park.
