Liam Currans was a fantastic skilful player for Offaly in both hurling and football and scored fantastic points in both the all ireland finals of 81 and 82.
Michael O'Hehir we miss you so much. You added so much to the excitement and drama to the big day. Nowadays? Canning was bad enough. Compare this commentary with Canning's of Offaly's amazing win in 1994. But with Marty Morrisey we have hit the bottom of the barrel. In all fairness though, his mother enjoys his commentary though she has been hard of hearing for a good few years now.
I think Johnny Flaherty was abroad in the states and returned and ended up winning an all Ireland in the twilight of his career. V quick thinking, never forget that goal, in the net like a light. R.I.P Mr Flaherty
Galway were robbed.Johnny Flaherty threw the sliothar into the Galway goal. They were robbed again in 85 when PJ Molloy put the ball over the Offaly goal line but it wasn't seen by the umpire.No hawk eye in those days.
Rest In Peace Johnny, an Offaly and Hurling Legend.
So long Johnny, one of many offaly idols i had growing up. Looking back us young lads were spoilt for heroes in both hurling and football
Rest in peace Johnny, what a class Hurler, that 81 All-Ireland will be remembered for ever,
Limerick Hurling supporter

Galway chocked in another All Ireland
It was a handpassed goal
@@shredder9536 Yes Flaherty clearly hand passed the ball to the net. A legitimate goal.
@@elizajohn5 no in 85 we had a disallowed goal and pat Cleary s goal shouldn't have been given Galway were robbed
Get over it
You're starting to sound like Mayo in the football. Be thankful the ref blew up early in the 1980 semi when ye were hanging on.
Johnny flaherty was a great hearted very skillful hurler ,god rest his soul
R.I.P. Johnny Flaherty. Laoch Uíbh Fhailí.
