I was very torn between Murphy and McManus.

PJ gains points for having a love-child with a Monaghan woman. Corkery was a fat bastard.

Geraghty was as good as any of those

25

You’re getting no bites for that one

26

Geraghty was class though, if someone’s trying to bring that hape of shite Corkery into it, then Geraghty should be too.

But in truth we all know the answer is Beano McDonald.

Geraghty was a talisman for a 2 all ireland wins. A superb player

32

Wouldn’t disagree that he was a superb player, just not a blue-chip forward

33

He was but my favorite meath player although not decorated was ollie murphy great corner forward.

Giles was actually my favourite

35

Inside forward murphy, half forward / centre forward Giles. He was a better dead ball kicker than Redmond imo

36

He was for meath what Murphy is for Donegal and Meath have two all Irelands won with him.

37

Canavan is the only genius on that list.

38

Declan Browne.

That’s more about Murphy being played away from his best position imo. In general all on the list would be close enough to their best position with 14 on their back, I wouldn’t say that of Geraghty.

I could not speak highly enough of canavan a great player but a absolute gent of a human.
We beat canavans errigal chiarain in the semis of a feile all ireland he was the manager and he was gracious in defeat.
We got beat in the all ireland final by salt hill of galway by a point and Peter canavan came into our dressing room and told is we were the better team and the best under age team he ever saw what,a man.
