Future quiz questions sorted as two Galway players have been included in the New York panel for the game against Roscommon in a fortnight's time.

Johnny Glynn, who wrought such destruction in last year's All-Ireland hurling quarter-final against and wrought such joy with his post-match interview, has been included on the forty man panel.

A massive loss for the Galway hurlers in 2016, Glynn gave an interview to Second Captains from a pitch in Manhattan. He said he was originally emigrating last May but hung because he believed Galway would win the All-Ireland. He is out there for the 'foreseeable future' but believes that Galway can an All-Ireland without him.

Lads might talk down New York a bit but to be honest lads, the team that's there, talent is unbelievable. It is very good. Obviously, not having the game time probably kills it a little bit. But we might get a shock the first weekend of May, you never know.

(In the same interview, he said he remembers Joanne Cantwell's eyes 'lighting up' when he used the words 'fucken' bullshit' after the Cork game).

Also, forming part of the New York effort for 2016 is Galway footballer Johnny Duane, who departed for the States at the end of last year with no word as to when he'd be back. Duane won an U21 All-Ireland with Galway in 2011 and has soldiered for the seniors since then, save for 2014 when he and Alan Mulholland had a wee disagreement.
