Tom Flynn Pays Tribute to the Men of 66
Tom Flynn pays tribute to the men of 1966 who brought the county title back to the Town.
Har Walsh and his brother Tom both won under age titles in hurling and football with the town.
Har played left corner back on the Portlaoise senior hurling team in the 1960 county final. He worked in St. Fintans Hospital with whom he went on to win a number of football titles.
Tom was a very accomplished footballer and distinguished himself on county teams. He won five senior football medals with Portlaoise and crowned his career with a Leinster club title in 1972.

SLIOTHAIRS again slap on ash in Rathleague—after a pause of six decades or more. It’s a sound that evokes thoughts of a once great GAA club, The Rovers, that, alas, is fast fading from living memory.
Cyril Duggan is without doubt one of the finest dual players the club has ever produced. Speak to anyone who was lucky to see him play or play with him and they will tell you the same.
