This is impossible to be fair. Too many people to be left out in every position and I'd say there is only five or six that I definitely wouldn't change.

Haven't seen Matty Forde or Declan Browne get a mention either. Of course, people will always use the latter stages of the All-Ireland series to measure the greatest, but unfortunately, this often rules out many fantastic footballers from the non-traditional powers.

Too much choice for me, will consider it and post my team tomorrow.

Declan Browne was as good as any player I've ever seen, the trouble with playing with a county like Tipp, is you won't be around the championship long enough for people to enjoy the fruits of your labour, bit like Brian McMahon the Dublin hurler, as skillful as any man playing the small ball, but known by few nationally!

So based on that, you couldn't put him in ahead of the likes of Cooper, Joyce, Canavan etc!

Will people stop whining about who's being left out and just post up a team. It's not an easy task. Any player left out was replaced by an absoluter legend in the majority of cases. So many 50/50 calls.

Except for Andy Moran. That suggestion was just bonkers.

Any team without Clucko, the 3 O Sés, Moynihan, Cavanagh, Galvin, Dooher, Cooper, Canavan ain't worth viewing.

Anyone trying to force posters choices & believing that he/she is 100% correct,is best avoided.

I disagree on Dooher great player but nowhere near as good as Flynn or Connolly.
