The best bit about this is the reaction of the fans on the sideline...

Hank Traynor may be past his peak, but he proved last weekend in a Junior club game that he is not obsolete with this thunderous shoulder. Simonstown were playing Drumconrath in Junior A championship in Meath last weekend when a Drumconrath decided to make a barn busting run through the middle of the defence, not a good idea when Hank 'The Tank' Traynor is on the opposite team. After the fairly hefty collision, the reaction of the Drumconrath supporters is hilarious. Just have a listen... and a watch of course. https://instagram.com/p/6PT-qZzSF7/?taken-by=joe.ie It must have had a rousing effect on his teammates because Simonstown won the game by a point. Thanks to Michael Brennan for sending it in to us.
