Kerry duo Stephen O Brien and Adrian Spillane
Is Adrian Spillane not about 26 or thereabouts?
Only two of Kerry’s 2014 All Ireland winning side remain.
Easy enough one for ye
Geaney and Murphy.

That was due to a health issue AFAIK
Rage, rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Great that he got to captain Dublin and lift it after the shite that had gone on before. He won Dublin that All Ireland practically on his own last year.

James had the poorest game of his career in last year’s final. A good year aside from that. A great footballee and a hard man. Dished it out, took it and didn’t pass any remarks.
Ah he set the tone with some big big hits. He bullied the opposition. Its not all about jaunting up the field. A proper leader and knew his influence but didnt shite on about it.

I think James McCarthy is my favourite footballer since Maurice Fitzgerald. Yes, he was hard, but a hugely intelligent player, always influential in every game. He set the tone and went about his business with little fuss. What a player, what a leader.
The Goat.
Lucky to have him
