Heās a modern day legend of the game. Seems an incredibly modest lad too. @peddlerscross had a few great stories about him.

I watched about half an hour of that interview.
Will watch the rest of it back, really good guy.
Whatās Bernard brogan like as an interviewer?
Very poor I thought to be honest.
Donāt want to run a fella down, but I donāt think he has the humility for it.
McCaffrey himself made it by being totally honest. No TV growing up in the family home was interesting to listen to and how he ended up reading books constantly as a result.
Worst than bad.

Trys to make everything about himself, thats not the role of podcaster interviewing people at all.
Watched a bit of the Tadgh Kennelly one, and it was even more blatant,
His ego isnt compatible to that gig really.

One of the great guys.
A lot of elderly Tipp fans were in awe of him when he came onto the train at Limerick Junction to the Munster Hurling Final last summer. It might only have been 11 in the morning and it may have been right in the middle of Dublins quest for immortality and 5 in a row, but Jack was nicely tipsy after a few bottles of Corona on the way down from Heuston, breaking into a rendition of the Auld Triangle or some other Dubliners song on the way into Colbert Station.
Thereās another great story of him heading into one of the pubs up past Croker on the way back to Clontarf after one of the Super 8 games last year when he came in by himself with his newspaper and ordered a toasted sandwich and pint of Guinness before heading off on his merry way after.

Are there people hired to trawl through opponents facebook posts from years ago?
It may come as a surprise to many here but they are a great many people nowadays who spend a huge amount of time online

Martin is dead right down.
There is absolutely no need to be apologising for Brian Stanleyās tweet.
SF need Gerry back at the helm.
Martin seems to be caught up in 9/11 conspiracy theories now. Would SF have been better off in the long run with about 5 less TDs elected and not having to deal with the likes of yerwan in Clare, Stanley and Martin?
Martin put in a tour de force today.
In fairness to him thatās clearly the opinion of most traditional SF people so the leadership should just go with it and not try to please everybody by apologising
