He’ll have pain in his back this morning
Last week, we saw some hurling goalkeepers try to be sneaky by using the hurl to stop the sliothar going over the bar for certain points in the Cork-Waterford Munster hurling semi-final.
Well, last night, St Bronaghs Rostrevor didn’t need their goalkeeper whip out a hurl to stop an O’Neills floating over the black spot.
That’s because they had human accordion Johnny Parr stretch every single sinew in his body to stop this point attempt by Clan na Banna.

The game ended 1-15 to 1-5 but without Jonny’s intervention it easily could have been 1-6.
Who knows how crucial that intervention may prove later in the season when the point difference is sorted out?
You may also notice that one of the men from Rostrevor above is wearing a jersey that doesn’t quite look right. In strong GAA tradition, the way get around a colour clash is, of course, to get one team to wear their jerseys inside-out.
Good win for @RostrevorGAA vital 2 points picked up. #insideoutjersy #needahaircut #notabadevening pic.twitter.com/1beu93tpb8
