Tomorrow becomes the player to play most championship matches ever, and I would not put it past him to go on and hit 100. witnof (Dublin) - Posts: 1604 - 04/08/2017 10:57:21 2028805 Link 4 |

What a man! clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 04/08/2017 11:27:21 2028820 Link 0 |
A remarkable achievement and a testament to his dedication and quality over the years. He will rightly go down as the best goal keeper of all time and one of the GAA's most iconic players. The perception of him is that he's a bit of an introvert. But I would actually commend him for that. Too many players nowadays aren't happy unless they're on social media promoting themselves or some product or other. Stephen has shown himself to be a GAA player first and foremost and he has reaped the benefits of that approach. Well done that man!

I'd say the one thing he is thankful for, given the way some of you go on about him, is that he is not a female. Jaysus I have never seen so much love towards one man since the Hoff stood on the Berlin Wall. Offside_Rule (Antrim) - Posts: 4058 - 04/08/2017 12:14:54 2028853 Link 4 |
Good post. He is a good example to young players on how to improve themselves. Earlier in his career, he made some rash decisions but has worked hard on his own game (and in his own time) bringing a very high and consistent standard to his game.

The greatest keeper ever. One I'd curse when we play the Dubs but absolutely admire as a footballer and how he conducts himself. Congratulations. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7290 - 04/08/2017 18:54:58 2029068 Link 5 |

A wonderful achievement and a great example of what application and dedication can do. Cluxton I'd imagine more than anyone else knows only too well the true value of what he is living out now.Having gone through the wilderness that was the lean years in his early days as net minder and suffering real low points when winning what he has and captaining this side to several All Irelands must have seemed stuff that was meant for other mortals. True lovers of GAA will know his worth.Some will acknowledge it ,some would rather not, there is no denying it however. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 05/08/2017 07:23:09 2029174 Link 0 |

An odd character, but the best there has ever been and ill likely never see anyone like him again while im on this earth. The words legend and great are thrown around too willy nilly nowadays, Only special, special players, game changers, generation changers, become greats and legends. Long after he is gone we will be talking about him as the man who revolutionized the game, Absolute class act, Well done Stephen. waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 05/08/2017 09:32:21 2029190 Link 1 |
His story and achievements will be the stuff of legends, highs, lows and complexities. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4441 - 05/08/2017 10:12:35 2029203 Link 1 |

Thought he put in a brilliant performance yesterday, his performances this year have been excellent, just wanted to highlight it as we probably all take him for granted, his form this year has been exceptional. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4441 - 06/08/2017 13:52:14 2029731 Link 0 |
No player is ever irreplaceable, we may just have one that will prove that theory wrong. When the day comes they are big gloves to fill Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 06/08/2017 14:55:34 2029752 Link 1 |
