Enda Flannery, without any shadow of a doubt.
Honourable mentions: Stephen Banville, Francis Devanney, Mickey Cahill, John Meskell, Stephen OāDonnell.

OāConnell wasnāt really a dirty hurler although I do remember him getting a red towards the tail end of his career for a late stroke alright.
He was similar to Timmy is style, high energy hard running. Some days it works other days it doesnāt. He ran Ciara Carey into the ground in 95, Carey had pretty much given up even trying to chase him early into the second half
Tipp Mickey Cahill?
He wouldnāt leave it after him is my memory. For every sparrow you need a fingers.
He had some walk. One of the all time great GAA walks

Would Sean OG fall into mullocker territory. An incredible athlete, not a whole pile of hurling but there was no end to him mentally or physically
Glynn despite being not much of a stickman actually has very good vision on the field. That disqualifies him from outright mullocker status IMO.

Are you nuts altogetherā¦?
The Thurles MC is one of the very best corner backs to catch a hurl in recent times.
You are to taking offence what most young wans are to fake tan, a slather merchant.

great topic @Big_Dan_Campbell
possible future sub topics, best whippets, best/worst axe men, best horses of ladsā¦
I was just asking the question mate. I donāt know of any other Mickey Cahill who hurled inter county so I was actually giving you the benefit of the doubt
At the start yes but his hurling improved hugely from 1995
Heād fall into the horse of a man category more than the mullocker one

A potentially brilliant hurler ruined by injury
There was a lad hurling for Dublin under Ger Cunningham whoās name escapes me. Get played him midfield, he had a decent engine but could not strike the ball when on the move. I used to always find it amusing how he would burn a lad and a feed yards only to inevitably be hooked
Good man yourself, good man.
Although you have just given away a lot there.
My age?
McMorrow?
Which lad? The five lads I mentioned were anything but potentially brilliantā¦
