A remarkable stat from the game is that 11 of the 19 players used were under 22, which augurs well for the future, and a few more were unavailable due to injury, exams etc.
Five of our six forwards on Sunday are eligible to play Under 21 this year. The odd man out was Paul Byrne, who is now slightly overage for U-21 having played on the one and only Clonmore team ever to win an Under 21 A Championship in 1991 - scoring two vital points in our 0-7 to 0-5 final win over Rathvilly. Twenty two years on and 'Fisher' is still going strong. A good innings by any standard. Coincidentally, Paul is a Mentor with our U-21s this year.
