Appearances
She was a chef for the health board and it was called a welfare home at the time in Tipperary Town.
So she would work and
She'd be rushing home, making food, back into work, straight after work, no food herself, dropping us to matches.
You know, particularly this time of year in the summer, we would have, you know, GA matches three or four evenings a week.
And she constantly brought us everywhere and sacrificed so much of her time for us.
Yeah, I was probably the lucky one that made it kind of at a high profile position in sports.
But, you know, look, I still love sport.
Even if I wasn't a professional rugby player, I would have always been participating in sports.
People often ask me, what advice would you give to young people?
Just try and be active, get involved in sport.
It's great for friendships, you know, relationships, socialising with people.
Definitely, yeah.
I think I, you know, I played because the GA club, the rugby club,
even going playing tennis in the summer, we would play a lot in the local tennis club and they're all different groups of people and you just make different connections and I enjoyed all that.
So yeah, it is.
Look, you don't necessarily have to be an aggressive participant in sport to enjoy it and to socialise and be part of something and
You know, if you don't play, then you can go and watch a match and stuff.
So it's still that has many benefits and great benefits for me in my life being active.
And, you know, my brothers and sister did the same.
Yeah, I think, look, I would always have went to Croke Park and watched matches and, you know, went to All-Irelands when I was young.
