And Noel Hickey is better than all of those I mentioned, no dramatics with him, just does his job.

Now Frank Lohan could HURL.

Daly was a wonderful full hearted player, but not the HURLER that say JJ Delaney would be.

I loved Gerry McInerney at Galway, brilliant player, but not a great HURLER.

So I think we are approaching this from different angles.

Go to the 3 minute mark on this clip and see this goal by Offaly and the sublime flick by John Troy. I don't think any of the Clare team would have managed this if they were still there.

The goal Troy got against Antrim one year when the ball was on the bye line, he "batted" it up into his hand and wrecked the net.

Supreme skill.
