Damian Casey wouldn’t have looked out of place in any team in any era of hurling according to one of his former managers.
Ulster and Antrim hurling legend Terence ‘Sambo’ McNaughton said he was, like much of the GAA community, still coming to terms with the news of the former Tyrone captain’s untimely death following an accident in Spain last weekend.
The former Antrim star managed Casey at Eoghan Ruadh last year before finding himself in the opposite corner this season when he was appointed as interim manager of Armagh hurlers.
