Carlow hurling has given us some unbelievable days in the last 20 years. I'll never forget beating Wexford in leinster minor Q/t final in 2006 & Offaly in semi.
Winning back to back Christy ring cups in 2008 & 2009
Christy ring again in 2017
Joe Mac against Westmeath in 2018
Drawing with Galway in league in 2019
Beating Offaly in relegation final in 2019
Beating Offaly in Joe Mac final in 2023
Drawing with Kilkenny in Leinster Championship in 2024
Beating Waterford in league in 2025
I was lucky to be at all of the above & them lads have given us unreal service. I'm not here to write them off as I firmly believe if we get all our players fit & out on duty we will give the Joe Mac as massive cut this year. But but eventually all good things come to an end & we are not producing the same calibre of player to replace these lads so when they gone we will realise how good we had it for a time. Heads up lads & give the Joe Mac an almighty push. You owe us nothing
