And they say that romance is dead.
A GAA dressing room, like a dressing room in any sport, can be an unforgiving environment for sensitive sorts, where slaggings are dished out with zero room for mercy.
In this day and age, the slaggings that take place in the dressing room have been transferred to the WhatsApp group that nearly every GAA club team has nowadays.
Just like the dressing room itself, nobody is safe.
Sometimes, however, a player is asking for trouble and while we admire the romantic side of an anonymous player from an anonymous GAA club (both for their own safety), the slagging that followed this particular text (both in the WhatsApp group and at the subsequent training session, we’re told) was inevitable, really…
The tight hamstring excuse might have worked better in this case, pal.
