My personal favourite, Tomas Connor and Pauric Dunne, but the best ever BRIAN MULLINS AND BERNARD BROGAN OF DUBLIN.

John McDermott and Jimmy McGuinness in 1996 were pretty darn good from a Meath point of view, Cork midfield of the late 80's and early 90's was also excellent Shea Fahy was a great footballer.

Nial Buckley and Willie McCreery from 98 in my opinion are up there as one of the best pairings

2 of the best outside my own county bias were Adrian Fenlon and George O'Connor and Tom Kenny and Jerry O'Connor.

Brolly keep it real, Simon & Garfunkel never played mid-field on All Ireland day, my pair Foster & Allen did.

I suppose I grew up wayching Plunkett Donaghy partnering both Harry McClure and Eugene McKenna, I was also a big admirer of the Sean Walsh-Jack O'Shea partnership. The Grimley twins in Armagh were the strongest partnership I have witnessed. Other midfielders that deserve a mention would be Brian Mullins, Peter McGinnity, Dave McCarthy, Anthony Molloy and Liam Austin. I would like to have seen Phil Brady, Jim McKeever, Colm McAlarney and Mick O Connell in action but my favourite partnership of all time would have to be Tohill and McGilligan.
