Derek McGrath and Micheal Donoghue came face to face on All-Ireland hurling final day a quarter of a century ago!
On Sunday fortnight, they will be in charge of the Waterford and Galway teams set to do battle for the Liam McCarthy Cup - a renewal of a Croker rivaly that dates back to 1992.
Twenty-five years ago, the Tribesmen inflicted a 1-13 to 2-4 defeat on Na Deise in the All-Ireland minor decider. Donoghue was part of the winners' half-back line that day, while McGrath started on the 40 for the Suirsiders.
The more things change, the more they stay the same!
