BRIAN CODY HAS linked up with his local side James Stephens as a selector, the club has confirmed.
The news, which was first reported by Michael Verney in the Irish Independent, comes on the back of Codyโs decision to step down as Kilkenny manager after an incredible 24 seasons in charge. His final game ended in defeat to Limerick in the All-Ireland SHC final.
James Stephens confirmed the news to The42 on Tuesday, saying that 11-time All-Ireland winning boss joined their backroom team โin the last couple of weeksโ.
โOh absolutely, who wouldnโt be [delighted]?โ club secretary Niall Connolly said.
โBrian is very much involved in our club anyway.
โHeโs a James Stephens man and knowing Brian, it was never going to be too long before he got back involved in the club.โ

Wonder who won the fight for the shirt at the end!
$45,000 seems very harsh for that.
I read this over the weekendโฆ. Wednesday nowโฆโฆ.
And now youโve SEEN it Willie, good lad.
I wish the clip went on for a big longer. Looked like trouble was brewing regarding who got to keep his shirt.
Impressive, but not quite the โFull Ketsbaiaโ
