Ciarán McDonald was supposed to have broken a bone in his foot just before halftime in the 2003 AI Club Final and got MOTM even though Nemo won it.

Connacht Final 1970 

I recalled hearing that there was a connacht final televised in the seventies , so rossfan is right.

That same year saw him line out in the halfback line with Mayo minors in the Connacht Final against Galway in Tuam. They lost out to their neighbours that day and Galway went on to win the All Ireland title. The year 1970 marked the first ever live television broadcast of a GAA provincial final and both the minor and senior games were transmitted live form Tuam on that occasion.Courtesy of the Mayo News

The Carrahan flag is the oldest recognised GAA trophy and Maurice Fitzgerald (yes him, again) broke a leg (colleagues) and went on to be MOTM....(1997?)

Not correct. Kevin Moran last played in an all Ireland  senior final for Waterford hurlers in 2008. Jimmy McGee asked that one at a quiz in croke park one night and it caught everyone
