HE DERAILED KILKENNY’S ‘drive for five’ with a famous All-Ireland SHC final hat-trick, he met the Queen of England at Croke Park and has recently opened a pub in Thurles.
And today, Tipperary forward Lar Corbett (@Lar40) answered our questions on Twitter.
Following in the footsteps of Ryan Tubridy and Bernard Brogan, the Hurler of the Year logged on for our third Twestion Time shemozzle. And as Bill O’Herlihy might say, it was live.
Catch up with what happened as we discussed karaoke classics, Game of Thrones and the Queen of England.

We’re talkin’ softball..
@Darragh Farrelly: ……Ozzie and the Straw
Has anybody actually seen Bradys thumb? I’m not for a moment suggesting the Patriots would do anything underhand to get an edge on their opponents ;)
@Baz: They are the masters of gamesmanship!
Tom is going to use his left hand this time…just to make things fair..
Great article Steve, hope Brady’s thumb gets through game. People in Boston seem to think he will manage. back up QB not capable of winning this one!!!
@billy o connor: he was until he was traded to the 49ers for a 2nd round pick!
