Cork Girls Do It Five Times
Talking Balls Comments
Although her day job is working for the camogie association with all the challenges that may bring, by night and by weekend she is a dual player of some repute. Last Sunday in captaining Cork she appeared in her seventeenth All Ireland Final. A deir sí:
“This group of girls have given up everything. People talk about sacrifices. We haven’t called them sacrifices. We call them winning choices and the winning choices we made this year stood to us in the game.”
“For some people, in the greater scheme of things, ladies football is not important. ?But for us, this is the greater scheme of things. As we saw it’s been very difficult to win five. It takes nine months. [It always does Mary, it always does! says Talking Balls].”
Not content with resting on her laurels, Mary now wants to inflict a load of drunk over excited Cork women on some unsuspecting holiday location, saying:
“We’re going to celebrate this. We’re going to try and fund raise for a big holiday. If you could put it out there that we’re looking for some help in that department, I think we deserve it. ??
“If men had won five All-Irelands in-a-row I think they’d be in free cars, free junkets and be made Freemen of the City. . .” .
So if any of our readers feel like digging deep into the pockets to see if there’s any €€€€s lurking down there, post them up to Talking Balls and we’ll make sure Mary and the ‘lads’ get it for their trip.
If you happen to be sunning yourself by some quiet swimming pool with a cheap novel and a cool cerveza, and a load of loud, well-toned rebelettes come staggering along poolside in their fake tan, high heels and blood and bandage bikinis, that’ll be the girls. They can go five in a row, but can you?
