Everyone is still talking about Wardley's one punch power, but I thought he boxed well. Didn't look anything like a White Collar fighter, footwork was decent, held when he needed to, brilliant jab, and his head movement was pivotal at times. And obviously a chin made of iron🥊

Unbelievable performance from both fighters! All credit to Fabio Wardley 👏 The stoppage did look a moment or two early in my opinion, and obviously it's so easy to say from the sofa, but I was surprised Parker didn't take a knee instead of giving the ref a choice to make.

The month of October symbolises autumn, Halloween and the first cold bite of winter, but for GAA teams, it’s often when fairytales come true.

"This is where the GAA is unique — particularly at club level — because when they say they’re “like a family”, they often mean it literally." This week's column takes a close look at the family ties that make up @NewbridgeCLG ✍️ https://t.co/3MVpZ4WxT1

When teams win big tournaments, trophies and competitions, they often say in the post-match interview that they are “like a family.”
