What have we begun?

Earlier this week, we ran a piece on the astounding physical transformation undertaken by Galway goalkeeper James Skehill. James Skehill fit The Cappataggle club player's change from physically fit to muscle-stacked has taken 12 weeks and let us to ask if he was the country's most ripped GAA player. Skehill himself demurred at the title. https://twitter.com/Jskehill01/status/626270927995699200 That question received many emphatic 'YES' replies, but challengers to Skehill's unofficial crown quickly emerged. Many thanks to all our readers and followers, and to the anonymous sources [possibly the players themselves] for all the nominations.
