Kilkenny GAA thread

Eaten bread is soon forgotten.

In a team of hall of famers, he was absolutely the main man. Granite on frees and penalties too.

If anything, HS is now underrated – especially as regards his skill.

Probably the best freetaker of all time. Between him and TJ Reid.

HS was not the best taker of a penalty by any means – but still produced his best penalty at best possible time. TJR by far the best penalty taker of all time.

You’d suspect there’s more than meets the eye here. Cant be anything else.

Have you stats to back those claims up?
Or are you just talking in terms of players to wear black and yellow.

Best free taker of all time ? Not sure about that.
Agree about tj being best penalty taker. Most of them are in the net before the keeper can move

Whom would you consider as good a freetaker as HS? Or better?

You would know plenty about yellow.

I have no idea what this means.

So you don’t have any figures to back up your claims other than saying the two lads from my club are the best. No hassle.

I know you have no idea.

Now fuck off.

So nothing? Fair play, some journalist you are.

Your obsession is your obsession.

I would say ‘take a hint’ – but not easy for someone thick as post.

Sorry for not understanding why you insultingly called me Asian, you racist old codger.

Why is Shefflin the best free taker ever? It was an honest question to start with before you started hurling abuse.

What’s the business Henry is starting up? Accountancy firm?

Can you name a better free taker though?

There are no quantifiable metrics as to who was the best ever free taker in inter county hurling, it’s not like the NFL stat wise, it’s purely a matter of opinion

Set up a Financial Services business with another fellow early in the New Year. Offices are out the Freshford Road, near the handball alley at Talbots Inch.

  2. Tommy
  3. TJ
  4. DJ
  5. Richie Hogan.

Henry would make the top ten in fairness.

In what world is Richie Hogan better?

It’s subjective.

There are plenty of unreal free takers that might not be consistent intercounty starters.

Was it not with Richie O’Neill?
