That Kerry forward line has it in terms of everything.

Has to be Canavan; O'Neill; Mulligan - I've never see a better full forward line in real life or on Kerry Golden Years Tapes!!

Having seen both in real life, if I had to choose it would be Sheehy, Liston, Egan.

Well I never saw the Kerry lads in real life but different types of football tbh!

Maurice Fitzgerald was the best full forward line I ever saw.

Closely followed by Canavan.

Are you joking? Bryan Sheehan just got an All-Star at midfield. Based on that Maurice would probably have been POTY in the modern era.

:D

Some of Maurice's best performances were as a midfielder. He could pluck kickouts out of the sky with the best of them:

Why allow yourself to be reeled in muppet, I had you for smarter than that?  Maurice in is pomp was the best I ever saw, shame he played on a Kerry team that wasn't quite up to it for so long, a bit like Canavan in Tyrone.
