Yet to see it on a clip but Paul Barden of Longford v Down in AIQ in 2003 or thereabouts.

Got the ball in his own square and soloed, jinked, dodged, dummied and ran the length of the field and slotted it over the bar.

Wonderful - even the Down supporters cheered.

He will get a couple of marks taken off due to it being he did it against the Down defence

For technical ability this one from Ciaran McDonald is hard to beat;

Given the circumstances, its hard to beat Kevin Cassidy's point against Kildare, at least from a Donegal perspective!

Rule 1 applies from now on, without a video to back it up it doesn't count.

In Meath you get away with it as long as you are walking on an opposition player.

Correction, as long as you walk it into the Goal!  :P

I once scored a point from about 130 metres from the oppositions goal.

It was a deflected clearance off the forwards head, but surely its still counts.
Time to take a more chill-pill approach to life.

Stephen ONeill scored a gem against Dublin in the 125th anniversary game in the second half, under the cusack stand , near canal end.

Also thought Ciaran McDonald's great point against Dublin in 2006 was a thing of beauty.
