He was a fantastic footballer

He was effective.  I wouldn't class him as fantastic but he did what Dublin wanted for a few years

Dublin's Paul Mannion not committing this year I believe.

A few gaps appearing for this year. A good few squad players are gone now. For me Mannion was a starter, played excellent when he came on in the final. Big loss.

Time to bring Archer into the frame and maybe Costello can hold down a starting birth.

There'll be a table quiz question in future years. Name the footballer whose nickname was also the name of a recreational drug.

Dublin will miss what he brought for the last quarter of a game.  Last year all of Dublins games were in the melting pot at that stage.

Do you know him?

I felt like he always got away with murder when he played against us....eg the time he pick clotheslined Cillian then slammed him to the ground

Mannion is the only Dublin retiree who played any sort of prominent role in the Championship and that was off the bench.

He'll be a loss for them but always seemed to lack consistency for me.

Strange statement about a 3 time all star.
Looks like you have a poor knowledge of footballers or you are looking for a reaction

Keith Higgins retired. Mayo decimated

[Rossfan]

Was to be expected.
Leroy next?

[From the Bunker]

Right time for Zippy to go. No game time in the AI final I'd say helped make his mind up.

Boyle, Keegan, Doherty next.

Aido, Hennelly and McLoughlin not far behind.

Why speculate on somebody retirement date.
Really stupid and inconsiderate.
