Did he make many appearances? Would have been of the same era as Chris Magill. Limerick football went through an even bigger slump than usual for a few years around that time.

Football

…Richard Bowles…

Eugene Leonard…P Ivess…Joe Redington

Padraig Browne…T Browne…Conor Mullane

…J Galvin…J Quane…

Stephen Kelly…D Fitzgibbon…Seanie Buckley

Timmy Cummins…Muiris Gavin…Fintan Ryan

That’s my team based on the positions as given by Live 95, but I’m not too happy with some of the classifications.

Paddy Barret should have been RHB, Ian Ryan would go in for Buckley in the half forward line. Also harsh on Stokes being included with the midfielders as he would be worth his place at center forward.[/quote]

mullane/reidy was the tightest call i had.

don’t see how you can have browne, he’s not even the best no. 5 on the current team.

Tom is a national treasure.[/quote]

never heard of the cunt

They seem to have stuck rigidly to the positions players played in. Would certainly have accomodated both on my team if allowed.

Only one difference, I have Fitzgibbon for Foley. If Foley had maintained his early trajectory I’d have put him in.

Ger Collins Snr, was good but not great and I don’t like Lavin. Saw Browne playing for Caseys the other night and he had super game so that’s why he got the nod :smiley:

Ya, it was tough leaving Reidy off, and I suppose on the basis of service he should have got the nod.

487

No disrespect to Mike, but in all fairness Reale could hard hold down a place in the county team when he was there.

488

would Hegarty not have been more classed as a center forward than a mid fielder?

putting hickey at LCB is a joke. even Sir Richard didn’t think he was a corner back.

Kirby was the tough call, but i’ve only ever seen his best games on grainy old DVDs, so Ollie it is.

begley hard done by but just not in big joe’s league.

Disappointed that Clem Smith and Pat Conway from Ahane didn’t get nominated…Two of the better club player I have seen in limerick in the past 6 or 7 years

493

Will you be in the big shmoke at the weekend Puke, with the Banner back in town?

494

I will indeed, had planned to go up the saturday night but the vet bill has ended any hope of that, will drive up, hope to be back in the clon for around 9 sunday night and 8 or 9 handy celebratory pints and all day in Ennis on the monday/tuesday

495

What the fuck are these celebrations about?

Legends all but fairly depressing when you consider the number of Celtic Crosses there is less than the average lad making up the numbers on a Kilkenny panel has.

What year did Joe McKenna retire?

Dunph what is your opinion on the lack of a nomination for any Tournafulla players?

498

It’s a travesty that Pat Sheahan isn’t on the hurling list. At least my fellow clubman, Paudie Browne, made the football one.

499

If my memory is right, Hegarty played centre back on the 1994 team, Ciaran was midfield. Midfield was acknowledged as his best position.

No nominations for either John Flanagan or Willie Fitzmaurice??

Well it’s only going back 1985 so it would probably have been towards the end of Willie’s career?
