Athleague's Mervyn Connaughton admitted nothing compares to winning with your club mates after last weekends victory over Padraig Pearses. Connaughton has had the honour of winning silverware in the GAA home of Croke Park but the Athleague talisman revealed last week's win felt much better. "It's probably the best feeling in the world. It was great to win in Croke Park but today capped off a wonderful year. "You can't beat the feeling of winning with your club," explained Connaughton.
