Brendan Cummins has made more senior hurling championship appearances than any other player in the history of the game. In an era that produced such brilliant goalkeeping talents as Davy Fitzgerald, Donal Óg Cusack & Damien Fitzhenry, many would argue that Cummins has earned the right to be considered the greatest of them all.

From fearless shot-stopping to pinpoint accuracy on his puck-outs, Cummins was unrivalled in the consistency of his performances, a consistency underpinned by a sometimes punishing physical commitment, mental discipline & great attention to detail. He was the rock upon which Tipperary built their team under many managers & changes of personnel.

Brendan Cummins' story is the story of Tipperary hurling over the last two decades. The ups & downs. The dramas. The characters. From his senior championship debut in 1995 under Fr. Tom Fogarty to his final games under Eamon O’ Shea, Cummins has seen it all. Standing My Ground is a remarkable account of an extraordinary career.
