Muppet I remember watching a clip of a last second basketball 3 pointer where the guy hurled the ball from his own (box) and she swished the net to win the game. These things are worth a go and the better confident players who practised their lives for that moment actually make them from time to time.  Maurice's Point showed that amongst the great place kickers crossing sporting disiplines he was as good as anyone in the world at their given sport.  But gooches and Doohers showed what Gaelic football is all about.  The last team to win an all ireland with nothing up front but a place kicker was Derry as far back as 1993.  I think we are comparing 2 different type of point whether O neill likes it or not.

Come on, where did I say that in my observation Muppet, undoubtedly its a snapshop and possibly out of context.  Ill ask you your opinion if you wish, and Ill reserve mine if thats ok. 


You mightn't have stated what muppett said rrhf but  you definatley insinuated it .

No I simply noted what he actually did - I didnt criticise and qualified that by saying the context might offer an expalnation.  Keiran Mc donald this afternoon sir is not in the dock, unless you mayo bies want to put him in there.

you have the ability to suck the air right out of the room rrhf.

What the feck has mcdonalds actions got to do with the greatest points ever scored and do you really think bringing that sore subject up would not bring people into the mix that had the intellect to see things form a different perspective?

You put mcdonald in the dock by slabbering about something you didnt take the time to understand, the mayo men didnt do that, you did.

Every point scored by Canavan, ever, whether it be in his back yard from 3yards out or in Croke 60yards out, was the greatest score ever. All others are on a level below.
