It's hard for me to look past Mickey Linden too. He was one of the best players to ever play the game imo. To shine for as long as he did, winning everything that he did, with both club and county. If you look back at what he has won, its some haul. Started his Down career when he was 17, and ended it when he was 35( ). Amazing. And such a gentleman too.

In 2008 - Harte/Gormley/Jordan were in some form as the summer progressed.
1999 - Murphy/Geraghty/Curtis were unstoppable. Replace Curtis with Giles and it was a dream FF line.

He never really developed his game and I only ever remember him playing in short bursts and then disappearing. A huge loss to Ross as they were struggling at MF during the years when he was expected to be at his prime.Quote from: spuds on November 09, 2011, 09:05:57 PMOn his day Shaq held his own v the best midfielders, i agree with your last bit but who wouldn't.Quote from: ross4life on November 09, 2011, 08:38:28 PM
Ciaran McManus had some great battles with Seamus 'Shaq' O'Neill was worth the admission fee alone. A great loyal midfield warrior! unfortunately a dying breed of the game.
In fairness O'Neill was not in his class nor did he have anything near the length of servitude to his county.
