Pic: “Put me down!” Westport player carries opposition player like a handbag

It was quite the battle

Photographer Oliver Whyte Jnr captures a great moment.

This was taken during the Cawley Cup Final between Ballinasloe and Westport by photographer Oliver Whyte, and it’s an absolute cracker.

Westport’s Liam Scahill would not look out of place on Game of Thrones as he picks up a flailing Ballinasloe player like a bold child that he’s going to put to bed early for not eating his dinner.

Brilliant. Just great.
