There's a picture of Cavlan fielding a ball for Tyrone - not sure who against - in the front bar in McAleers in Dungannon. He's at least 4 feet off the ground.

Must be a high ceiling in that place.

Eugene was Augher and Tyrone. Him and six other brothers played in minor Ulster finals for Tyrone. Some record.  Raymond, Dessie, Willie, Eugene, Brendan, Mickey (I think) not sure of other name.

The folklore that I have heard, Dessie was actually a much better footballer but got injured and didnt play for the county again.

Is the record for the highest catch in Croker still an Armagh man(Campbell /McCorry??) in the 1953 final v Kerry?

Always thought this was a great picture. Looks better if you can see the grass in the picture though.

Maggie that is a myth Dessie McKenna was good alright and played a lot of games with Tyrone but not true to say better than eugene. No way-Eugene was a fantastic footballer and didn't in three All Stars for nothing when Tyrone wernt hitting All Ireland finals every other year.
