Regardless of who's managing our minor and U20 county teams, there's a much bigger job for Galway hurling, which is the development of our young players through the ranks and eventually into quality seniors. Those managers will have a key role for certain, but it goes way beyond that.
Overall, given our resources it's fair to say we have failed in this regard to a large degree and the recent trend has been getting worse unfortunately.
I've seen the announcement of hurling and football taskforces being created to review all aspects of player development in the county. I hope they can deliver on their remit and provide some tangible methods in which we can improve, which will in turn produce results evident on the field.
