Forde a role Model

Matty Forde's performance on Sunday should be an inspiration to young forwards all over the country.
Forde has been one of the best forwards in the country for a number of years now and if he had played on a more successful team he would be right up there with the very best.
He can score with either foot, is brave and his movement makes him a difficult man to mark.
However, like anyone else he has his off days and by his very high standards he was having a tough time on Sunday.
He missed chances he would normally have taken in his sleep, the wind played its part in some of the misses but some of them were just poorly struck from poor positions.
At one point early in the second half Forde had one point and six wides but he kept trying to do the right thing and shooting when he had the opportunity and eventually it came good for him.
Forde ended up with six points the winning margin between the two sides, including two 45s.
Forde never let his head drop even when it wasn't going his way and it's that ability to continue to try to do the right thing which marks the really good players out from the pack.
Forde's performance was inspirational despite his early misses and his presence alone makes space for those around him.
I thought Redmond Barry was outstanding on Sunday but Forde still remains the go to guy when Wexford need a score.
Wexford will be underdogs no matter who they play in the Leinster final but only a fool would write them off.
