Just watching Galway v Roscommon highlights there pre under 21 semi finals. Galway scored a point that could have a claim to be the greatest  point of the modern era.

Ah to be honest I consider points form open play to be of a higher quality than from dead balls. Hitting a free is no better than being a golfer.

Gooch v Cork a few years back in a Munster semi. I think Anthony Lynch was marking him.

Dooher's v Kerry was good but this one wins for me all the time.

From 3.25 onwards.

PS. Ross Carr threw the ball before that last free which also was not a free.

Colm Coyles point from the halfway line in '96.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Maybe showing a maroon & white bias but I always remember this point in the AI final of 98.
Michael Donnellan racing the length of the field from his own full back line and finished off by Sean og de Paor.

have a good one from Tohill on video from a league game in Navan. Not much style about it, but he scored it from 5m from the 65m in the derry half wind assisted. Cleared the bar with about 5m to spare. Reckon it was about 80m out

Cluxton's last minute free to bate Kerry in the AIF in 2011 took some guts.

The best part of that video is the two midfielders trying to bury each other at the 45.

Of the top ten points ever, this man must have scored about 4 of them.
