"I often think wasn't I an awful chancer going out there in front of 80,000 people on my own," he laughs of the two All-Ireland Football Finals he refereed (làm trọng tài) in 1965 and 1968, with the latter game seeing him adjudicate (phân xử) over Down's win over Kerry.

McGrath has never doubted (nghi ngờ) that he is doing the right thing for Waterford hurling and for this rare group of Waterford players.

One day I was summoned (triệu tập). ‘What do you think?’ I was asked. To be totally honest, the new hand was a good bit longer than the old one, the left one.
