Retirements

[Wildweasel74]

One of my favourite Mayo players and yes he made the Kerry and Tyrone teams of yesteryear. Serious player before injury that caused him too loose Lot of pace but his sheer ability made up for that.

A fantastic player who gave his all. Hope he enjoys his retirement

[imtommygunn]

I saw him in sigerson years ago up in Belfast and thought his movement was better than anything I'd ever seen. I was surprised it took him so long to make the breakthrough for Mayo but when he did he was fantastic. He had to be admired for his work rate and intelligence of movement. Without him Mayo wouldn't have had the great teams they have had over the last half a dozen years.

I'd take Andy every day of the week

As an inside forward - his movement/runs off the ball were just top class.
Some man to get a yard for himself with clever movement.

Ciaran Mc firing passes in to Andy be a nice watch.

Although I hated him with a passion when he was wearing the maroon of Crossmolina I would have Ciaran Mac just ahead of Andy.

[Lar Naparka]

Has to be Supermac because didn't have high  calibre like Kevin Mac, Cillian or Jason Doc playing beside him. Mayo in his time didn't have the bonus of attacking backs, like Leroy, Chris, Boyler etc. foraging upfield to give a dig out.
Andy had the benefit of playing on better quality teams with a more even spread of talent.

[stephenite]

I might be wrong, however I took from the tone of the question from Brannigan was that he's trying trying to elicit whether or not Mayo people valued an enigmatic genius over a more functional player (of undoubted quality) with an amazing work ethic and spectacular attitude.

Mac was a spectacularly gifted player, however he spent time unavailable to Mayo for various reasons. Andy Moran would have been sub-keeper if that was what was asked of him.

Did you ever see Padraig Brogan play in his prime?

I remember the reaction when he came on against Donegal in the '92 semi a couple of months after going back to Mayo!
