The GAA season just got 100x more exciting with news today confirming that Joe Brolly has joined Twitter. He didn't merely do an Eoin McDevitt and tweet a link and disappear from the fray for a few days. Instead Brolly has spent his first 24 hours on Twitter calling out retired GAA stars, providing gossip about Kilkenny managers, advocating for organ donorship and posting photos with members of Fianna Fail. Highlights from the whirlwind below.
His first tweet was actually a RT with Tomas Mulcahy and a former Minister for Health about the Opt For Life campaign.

Then came a salvo aimed loudmouth Laois badboy Wooly Parkinson. Brolly clearly feels Parksinson is a threat to his perch as the GAA's resident straight-talking pundit
Colm Parkinson. I'm coming for you...

There was an insight into romantic life of Brian Cody.
Brian Cody courted my aunt Sheila once in the 70s in Dungiven. What a loss to Derry hurling..

There was even a tweet about Tommy Walsh. whom Brolly was hanging out with at the Cork Opera House's 'Up Close And Personal' night on Friday.
Met Kilkenny Tommy Walsh at Cork Opera House on Friday night. Smaller than Amir Khan and twice as dangerous. #icon twitter.com/JoeBrolly1993/…

I'm predicting a Kerry tweet before the day ends.
