Mackey was the first hurling superstar. He was an innovator, he was the first man to score a sideline cut and the first to start scoring 70s.
Mackey is Hurling.

Similar to English in the early 80’s to 87, he took alot more punishment than Kelly as well.

I’ll admit I only saw most of Nicky on tape as he is well before my time. My dad is a Tipp man and had pretty much every Tipp match from 87-91 so that is what I am going on. He had bags of skill, scoring an incredible half-volley goal against Antrim in 89, if memory serves, and was an incredible talent.
But, on what I saw, I would favour Kelly. His consistency was something else. He was almost guaranteed to rack up a huge tally every time he took to the field.

That’s because you’re a simpleton
Vital cog in Codys team at their best, mate. This isnt the top 3 hurling pundits thread.
He’d do well to make a top 20 Kilkenny hurlers list between 2000 and now

You really are an awful fuckin’ eejit.
I suppose you think nobody could write before Fintan O’Toole started publishing his idiot’s guide to Shakespeare.
And that there was no good whiskey before Proper 12.

It was shite
The state of the way players swung their sticks
A little twiddle of the wrist and then a backswing like an off balance John Daly before taking a couple of off balance steps backwards after they had completed their swing
It was crap shinty
There was something terribly camp about the awkward, ungainly bodily movements of old stick stickers
I suppose it effected different observers in different ways. Whatever you’re into sid. More power to you.

Get ready for the retort in which he doesn’t deal with the post at all and uses some big words to impress the simpletons
Yes
Some think shit hurling was good
Some think it was shit
They people who think it was shit are correct
It was a stick stick version of reductio ad absurdum
The players looked like dorcus molorcuses, or should that be dorcuses molorcus, or dorci molorci
A big word like ‘simpleton’?
If the cap is greasy enough to fit, no reason not to wear it.
