The Danesfort footballers will be hoping that Paul Murphy doesn't overdo the celebrations at tomorrow night's All Star banquet.
The army man will be honoured with his fourth Hurling All Star at Dublin's Convention Centre, but come Sunday he'll be donning the boots again and lining out for Danesfort in their Leinster club JFC quarter-final against Milltown of Westmeath. The game was originally scheduled for Milltown, but has been switched to Cusack Park, with a 2pm throw-in.
Incredibly, it will be Danesfort's first competitive football game since they edged out Dicksboro 0-9 to 1-5 to win the Kilkenny IFC title on April 25. Murphy's Kilkenny team-mate and fellow All Star Cillian Buckley was a sub for Dicksboro, but Richie Hogan wasn't part of the winning Danesfort squad.
It remains to be seen if Hogan, who will also receive an All Star tomorrow night, will be available for Sunday's game.
