Only thing better than Limerick minor footballers’ win on Wednesday was this player profile

Limerick football is back, baby.

The Treaty County ran through the Tipperary defence on Wednesday evening to register a score of 3-8, which was good enough to jettison the defeated Munster and All-Ireland finalists from this year's minor football championship. Captain Diarmaid Kelly ran amok, scoring 1-1 in each half as Limerick ran out six-point winners on a scoreline of 3-8 to 0-11 to set up a Munster semi-final meeting Cork. It sounds like it was entertaining fare on offer in Semple Stadium, and that was before fans even got around to flicking through the match programme. Once they did, they would come upon a rather splendid interview with Limerick full-back Fionn Murphy - the Kilteely/Dromkeen clubman displaying a cracking sense of humour and a varied set of interests. First things first, not too many GAA programmes feature former Wolves defender George Elokobi, who Murphy lists as the "sportsperson he would most like to meet". He'll be welcome in West Waterford anytime after listing Clonea, Dungarvan as his favourite holiday destination, and lord knows it is beautiful part of the world. Lovely drinking water in the south east too, which is good as it is Murphy's favourite drink. We do wonder if the Tipperary victory would rank above winning the school five-a-side league two years in a row, which was Murphy's sporting highlight up until Wednesday night. The last question asks the teenager to reveal something people don't know about him: "I play the concertina". However we think that particular cat might have been out of the squeeze box when Murphy earlier stated that a new concertina would be the the first thing he would buy if he won the lotto. Here is hoping for a long run in the Championship for the Limerick minors so we can get some more of these little nuggets. https://twitter.com/barryomahony4/status/722890172493209602
