"We get their skill level up, get them to work for each other, and get them to know each other, do it for each other, and really bond and gel.
"Like in the All Ireland final, when you have to go to the well, you come back to that kind of thing, you come back to will they die for each other. If that's not there, you have to have the heart, it's not just for themselves but it's for everybody else who is around them."
