The Great John Egan - RIP

[Rossfan]

Sorry to hear this news.
RIP
Still finding it hard to forgive him for that goal which broke this young innocent's heart in 1974.

Probably my favourite player growing up and one of the best goal finishers I've ever seen. RIP John!

A giant among giants.

Sad loss to his family first and GAA second - modest, hardworking and massively talented and played through a time when kerry forwards didn't need to whinge about anything - they let their football do the talking. RIP, first of the truly golden generation.

A few years ago Derrytresk invited the Kerry side from the early 80s up for an anniversary game, more in hope than in expectation. The only man to drive up was Egan. Sorry to hear of his passing.
