Cork in 1941 won the All-Ireland senior hurling title. Munster Final not played until November because of Foot and Mouth outbreak. Tipp beat them in Munster Final.

I think Joe McNally 1985 and Seamus Leyden 1971 got 2 goals and lost.

2 Kerrymen with All Stars but no AI. Connie Murphy and Karl O'Dwyer?

4 goalies in one final? Kerry 1978 had 3 - Nelligan, P Spillane and Deenihan. Was there a 4th?

Substituted after 1 minute of club hurling match. Answer ME!! and I was after scoring a goal. My replacement got his nose broken. I made sure not to score again after I went back on.
