IT’S BEEN A superb 24 hours for Galway U20 dual star Conor Flaherty.
He celebrated an All-Ireland football title today at Croke Park to cap off a brilliant 24 hours, after helping Galway book a spot in the Leinster U20 hurling final last night.
Flaherty lined out at centre-back last night in Portlaoise, as Galway dethroned the reigning provincial champions Kilkenny to book their spot in the Leinster final.
The Carnmore hurler contributed one point from a free as Galway progressed with a 0-19 to 1-11 win.
Leinster hurling semi-final win at centre-back, All-Ireland football final win in goal and all in the space of 24 hours.

Some going by Conor Flaherty. Has a chance to replicate the @bigbar9 Galway double of 2005 now. https://t.co/0cHsiD3g3r
Flaherty, who plays his club football with Claregalway, was back in action in a Galway jersey today.
He started in goals tat GAA headquarters as the Tribesmen held off a thrilling fightback from Dublin to win the All-Ireland U20 footbal title. Flaherty kept a clean sheet and was solid overall between the sticks.
The Galway hurlers will now prepare to take on Dublin in the Leinster final on Sunday, 3 January.
Doesn’t matter we are going to win anyway simple!!!!
@rowan hill: And ye call leinster fans cocky!
@Bazalicous Dunne: They are going to win, Toulouse are 9th in the Top 14 right now and are terrible when playing away from home.
@Rudiger McMonihan: I do agree to be fair.. munster by 18.
Bonus having David out but with Bezy fit and Dusautoir rested it’s looking more and more like Toulouse could be up for this one; here’s hoping Rassie saves the best for this
Tough for Toulouse to compete when Munster can just sign up Springboks whenever someone gets hurt
@garland greene: indeed, Toulouse are well known as being the paupers of European rugby.
@garland greene: u must have been abused by a south african as a child
@garland greene: this is why we need red thumbs, because of tools like garland greene and all his previous incarnations.
@Padraic Courtney: Disagree. Garland is exactly the reason we don’t need red thumbs, they are his viagra.
Tbh lads I think I play moreno lb and milner to replace lallana. You’ll have two players who know the position so klopp won’t have to teach anyone a new position in the next 3 days and Everton won’t be as threating down the rigth with coalman’s injury. Give moreno these next few game and if he can’t cut it get rid.
@Lorcán Coyle: why the he’ll did my comment end up here. Sort it out.
@Lorcán Coyle: I know your comment ended up in the wrong section but I’d say Henderson will come back in for Lallana…
