Got the wrong side of Brian Mullins in a junior game in Donegal about 15 years ago
I was 20 years younger than him but he had an effective way of Neutralising my superior pace

Didn't mark him but was in goals against Meath's Cian Ward in an underage game some years ago against Wolfe Tones. Absolutely destroyed us.
