watercolour 20cmx 29cm   In the nineties, it was Offaly, Clare and Wexford leading the challenge against the traditional counties of Kilkenny, Cork and Tipperary.
Form 2003 onwards, the Deise men brought their presence to bear, with Dan Shanahan and Eoin Kelly, and Ken McGrath, and of course, the ageless Tony Brown, showing that the Waterford men were not out of the running. The sublime Paul  Flynn often finished what the others had put together, and Waterford started every championship season as serious contenders.
 For a style that blazed on camera, goals that rocked the grounds, and a leadership that suffused throughout the pitch, perhaps among the most memorable of these great hurlers would be Shanahan, who, once he was bearing down on goal, with his courage, will and determination powering him through the strongest defenders, was a sight that thrilled the entire attendance, friend or foe, at any game, and earned himself the respect and affection in the heart of the men of any county.
