Joe Canning, that’s some hurling boy.

We’re running out of superlatives to describe the Galway full forward at this rate but his goal against Tipperary in Sunday’s Allianz League clash was nothing short of mesmerising.

It was pure bravery. Pure invention. Sheer ignorance.

It had with it pace and skill and a hell of a lot of accuracy.

Galway haven’t won the All-Ireland hurling championship in Joe Canning’s lifestyle. If anyone is going to do anything about it, he will.
