'I’d love to have another provincial medal but I’d prefer to be getting further into the Championship if I’m totally honest.'
Roscommon's Ciarain Murtagh admits that he would favour a deep Championship run over winning another Connacht title.
“Still, we were beat before you go into a quarter-final which is ultimately not good enough. It's disappointing for all the players that are there and you'd be disappointed for the management that are putting so much time into it as well.” “I suppose we had confidence in our group that we could do it. That probably would have been an upset for everyone outside the camp. But we were confident that we had the work done and that we were going to put up a good show against Dublin.
But Murtagh, who won a Connacht title in 2017, would trade winning another for Roscommon making a greater imprint on the All-Ireland series. Murtagh is one of 50 players across all four Gaelic games codes who will travel to Kenya next month as part of the Warriors for Humanity group who will take part in the Plant the Planet Games.
