shane dooley has a good chance of take top spot in the scoring records , his our free taker , his still 28 and his father hurled till he was 38 , we have round robin games this year and he has only 48 points to make up .
could he overtake him before his 30 ????
lads its not a fair comparison b carroll and s dooley didnt ever play in a straight knockout champioship like they other guys did when there were years the only played 1 championship game and offaly were gone .
brian carroll is and was a fine hurler who gave great service to offaly but he was no johhny dooley m corrigan or p molloy.
Johhny dooley and m corrigan was just special talents.
p molloy hurled in a different time where none of todays guys would have last 5 minutes ,he took his life in his hands going out on the pitch and got no protection from a ref and yet he still excelled .
that all the past we need new leaders to emerge now .
Who is going to the this years captain ??? Conor Mahon ? J Demsey?
