The greatest point of the modern era

[mayogodhelpus@gmail.com]

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.

I was at both of those games, I remember SuperMacs points cannot recall O'Neill's.

Donaghy kicked a ridiculous point from under the Cusack Stand in the All Ireland against Dublin.

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.

It wasn't your last incomprehensible point.

Is 1991 still part of the "modern era"?

Damien O Reillys against Donegal in 1991 is as good as any score you will ever see.

That was some point.

Eamonn Burns is the pick of the points I've seen so far. Scored against that years AI champions too.

It was like the impossible volley Van Basten scored in Euro 88,

Is hurling included in this?

If so, Diarmuid O'Sullivan's point v Limerick from his own half.

No.

My oul school teacher and former coach Eamonn Burns' score was the best lads! I scored a few like that during the half time shows when us subs use to get a few kicks at the goals

No.

Yeah it is. But link a video or get the f**k out.

the Galway 13 takes the ball around all 15 of the Roscommon players before laying it off for a point.  Amazing solo running.  If Best was good no 13 was better...

By his own admission , Scotchy had lost contact lens and couldnt see the goals properly. It was a kick in the general direction and hope for the best
