Joe Brolly spoke for the whole country with his glowing praise and gracious appreciation of one of, if not the greatest club teams of all time.
The game they play isn't Gaelic football at its breathtaking best, it's Gaelic football on a whole new planet where only Corofin men live.
When they come down to earth for a seventy minute show, it's both a joy and an example for Gaels all over and by Sunday evening they had half the country inspired.
Inspired to teach their club's under-12 teams to go for goal and only to take their points as a consolation. Inspired to have each and every one of them playing for the player beside them and working like a dog for them too.

From Bernard Power in the goals lamping kickouts sixty yards down the field to Kieran Molloy chasing every one of them, these lads have it all.
The long-haired flyer bombs up and down the pitch with relentless conviction in every game he plays. He chases his own solos like a dog after a beach ball but he'll go without the ball too. He'll go every time.
Pardon us for the Corofin corner because there were other GAA games all over the country too. The Dublin hurlers pulled off a famous win over Tipp in Thurles with both Eoghan O'Donnell and Sean Moran phenomenal for them.
Austin Gleeson was in one of those moods where in Walsh Park on Saturday, where he was simply unplayable for the Waterford hurlers.
Tyrone finally defeated Dublin after six years of failing while Mayo got one over on Kerry too.
Here's our Team of the weekend.

It looked to be over and done with between the players but the scrap made its way to the sidelines, and Sky Blues […]
