Shane Curran says he'll know when the time is right to hang up his gloves.

The St Brigid's goalkeeper, who turns 42 next month, experienced the highlight of his career to date when helping the Kiltoom club to victory in Sunday's All-Ireland club final and he suggests in The Irish Daily Star that he could soldier on for another while:

"The game is given to you and it's taken away from you. When that time comes, we've great young goalkeepers in Shane Mannion and Tom Finnerty coming up behind me.

"I'll give them the best of my experience and the best of my advice. I won't stand in their way of becoming great goalkeepers and great players for the club.

"The O'Rourke Cup is next week. I'll be there."
