In my life time.

Donal O Grady was a fine hurler but that’s hilarious

Paddy Bradley.

Who was better?

Ken McGrath, Dan Shanahan, Tony Browne, John Mullane for a start to a very long list

Wouldn’t really many years of them playing only Mullune.

Maybe, though Paddy was more an upmarket Conor Mortimer. There are loads, Andy Moran was not the reason this Mayo team didn’t win an All-Ireland but had he been replaced with a McManus, Coulter, Forde, Meehan, or even Declan Browne in their prime then Mayo would probably have landed at least 1.

Bradley was as good a forward as there was about in his day playing on a middling Derry side. The Ulster Championship’s all time top scorer.

Tony Griffin, Gerry Quinn, Ollie Canning, Damien Hayes, Brick Walsh to name a few offhand who were every bit as good as O’Grady who has a nice hurler but hardly a dominant force either. I’d take Ollie Moran over him if picking a limerick lad from this century without an a/I medal

There’s no way you could have Ollie Moran ahead of Donald o Grady.

Ollie Canning is a few levels above all the others you listed. Hands down the best corner back ever.

Lol a bottler

I preferred Enda Muldoon from that time, I’d probably have both ahead of Moran.

He’ll surely win wan soon

How would you compare him to John Doyle?

Ollie Moran was better and I’d have Geary ahead of Dodge in Limerick terms.
