Big Dan retires

Hurler of the year 2007 and general all round legend of the game has decided to call it a day. One of my favourite hurlers. It's sad that this Waterford side never won the All-Ireland they probably deserved, much lesser teams than them have done down the years. Maintaining consistency from one game to the next was their achilles heal I suppose and Big Dan perhaps exemplified this better then any of them but when he was good,he was very, very good.

Aye .......... a bit like Joe C ....

This thread is not about any Joe C. It is a tribute to Dan Shanahan.
