In fairness, he was very open to answering questions.
So keep him coming.
Hold on.
That's alright.
The question was, who will be your three inside forwards for the semi-final coming in from Sneak 14 there?
Right, OK.
I wouldn't be surprised or put Barry Welsh into the corner there wouldn't be surprised if he did something like that different yeah because a few lads a few lads kind of talking about Connolly earlier on like Connolly's been a free taker and obviously Connolly's been like at a really high standard particularly when it comes to this end of the championship the last few years like is Connolly still in that kind of nailed on starting position for you at the moment
Richard Hogan was on there as well.
Are you still involved with the down hurlers?
Yeah, it's a hell of a commitment, though.
Trevor Fletcher's making the trip up from... That's right, Trevor's up and down there, yeah.
You're obviously making a fair trip up as well.
So how did Ronan get you all involved?
I know Ronan has some cork links as well.
Did that help?
like two wins against Antrim like that is a pretty good year we've been saying a few times maybe it now gets to the point with Derry going John McDonagh next year we're getting to the point where maybe an Ulster Championship is needed again but like that represents I suppose a consistency that Downer are going to want is if you're going John McDonagh year after year like that's a very good year you've put behind you
It's great to hear he's doing well.
Martin, I want to hit you with one of the big wide questions here as well.
What's the Rock think of the overall standard in hurling at the moment and what can the Leinster teams do to bridge the growing gap?
So I don't know, look, we debate this every week, whether it's been good, bad or indifferent this championship and whether the gap is getting bigger or not.
