Well that was unexpected…
If Mayo fans finally think that the curse of 1951 will be lifted this season then Aidan O’Shea is going to play a big part in it.
The Breaffy clubman has been transformed from one of the best midfielders in the game to a rampaging roving full-forward.
The 25-year-old is one of the most recognisable faces of the GAA and as a result people start to think of all sort of odds things to ask you.
What’s your favourite M+M? Who was the best Spice Girl? Who would win in a fight, Ed Sheeran or Ronan Keating?
Well that’s just our own experience and thankfully during a special AIB GAA Q+A on Twitter today, O”Shea was asked some more sensible questions such as who’s his toughest opponent, what’s his favourite TV show and even how long it would take four men to build a wall?
But the proceedings kicked off with a topical question for the week that was in it from Monaghan’s Darren Hughes.
The hair theme then continued
