That 2016 one was unreal on a baking hot day in mid July.

Sean Cavanagh kicked some scores near the end to win a low scoring epic.

I was at it. I think it was Peter Harte kicked the big scores.

Im pretty sure Cavanagh got one too.

He then got himself sent off against Mayo in another low scoring epic on a baking hot Saturday in Croke Park.

Those type of days dont exist anymore.

I’ll always associate that game with Shane Dowling absolutely LAMPING close-in frees over the bar and out of the grounds.

The GAA’s biggest backslapping pairings:

1 Cork v Tipperary (cartel)

2 Kilkenny v Wexford (abusive relationship which both counties enjoy)

3 Kilkenny v Offaly (disgusting)

4 Cork v Tyrone (mutual enemies of Kerry and therefore love each other)

5 Dublin v Cork (mutual enemies of Kerry and Meath)

6 Limerick v Waterford (ah if we can’t win an All-Ireland, I’d love to see them win it)

7 Dublin v Louth (mutual hatred of Meath)

8 Down v Kerry (Kerry find it acceptable to lose to Down, Down find it more than acceptable to plámás Kerry, it’s all they have left)

9 Derry v Armagh (mutual hatred of Tyrone)

10 Tyrone v Down (mutual hatred of Armagh)

11 Meath v Kerry (both cunts, both hate Dublin and Cork, so like each other)

12 Kildare v Roscommon (the Dermot Earley friendship derby)

13 Dublin v Armagh (the hooligan friendship derby)

14 Galway v Waterford (ah if we couldn’t win it, I’d like to see them win it)

15 Galway v Limerick (too friendly by far)

16 Dublin v Wexford (there isn’t a Dublin person around who doesn’t instinctively like Wexford)

17 Kerry v Laois (pimp and cheap prostitute relationship)

18 Offaly v Laois (abusive relationship which both counties enjoy, but utterly irrelevant)

19 Armagh v Louth (smugglers’ friendship derby)

20 Cavan v Fermanagh (Sean Quinn friendship derby)
