I acknowledge how important Power was to Callan and to KK. However, he’s not a particularly nice man so he’s out.

I’d agree with your selection.
However on another note I used to love watch Richie Hogan warming up before games. His touch was supremely effortless. It was like he was controlling a bean bag.

Was he sent off in the AI?

‘Something else’ is a description.
You could say ‘Player X was something else’.
Its a step below iconic
@balbec ‘Razzmatazz’ and ‘Aura’ are slightly different in that a ‘Hall of Famer’ or a ‘GOAT’ could bring some Razzmatazz or an aura to proceedings.
EDIT I suppose you can use ‘Box Office’ as number 5 but its a bit 2019 isn’t it?
Eddie keher being a bitter one eyed cunt should mitigate against that.
What about chunky o Brien?

@Malarkey might know more but is there a story behind Richie playing with Danesfort rather than another club.
May be completely wrong on it.
Wasn’t he christened ‘Richie No Medals’ by the Callan crowd because of his propensity to lose All Ireland Minor and Colleges Finals at one point?
He fairly mugged them off.

Is Callan the parish in question so?
Thought I heard it was Dunamaggin
I sat in front of Keher and his wife at a semi final v Cork back in ‘11 or ‘12 maybe? Anyway, he very opinionated and isn’t afraid to call the ref say every cunt under the sun. DJ did stop by at half time, that would have been a cool picture to take.

I think it was Callan.
It was a running joke on Premierview back in the halcyon days.

You’re right. Open for correction but his mother is from Bennettsbridge but where they built is in the parish of Danesfort. So he went to school in Bennettsbridge but he and Paddy were made play for Danesfort.
Wasn’t Callan. The Hogans would be highly respected in the town/parish.
Apologies if it was Bennetsbridge.
I’d have no real concept of Kilkenny geography

2010 maybe? Think Kilkenny had the game won very early. Don’t think Cork reached the semi-final in 2011 and seem to remember them playing Galway in 2012 semi-final under JBM.
Yeah that right. Around that time. Premium seats obviously

Very good point,But I’d have to disagree.
Whilst John Power had an agricultural,swashbuckling swagger that endeared him to many…As far as JB is concerned,there’s only one piano shifter that enters the conversation.
A man that would shit walking.
A man that had more limbs than teeth.
A man that held no sway for woke cunts or snowflakes.
Step forward
BIG Christy Heffernan.
That fella was a fuckn machine.

Where would ye rate the likes of a Charlie Carter. He was a fine player in the early 00’s.
