A Munster Final Memory

A guest post by Mike Hackett

John (Sean) O’Connor, Principal of Piltown National School, told a great story from the 1950s when Waterford had an outstanding hurling team.  Some older people will remember Ned Power, Austin Flynn, Tom Cheasty, Frankie Walsh, Johnny Kiely  and Philly Grimes.  They won the All-Ireland in 1959.
