If you could take 3 players from other teams to strengthen your team, who would you take. I would take tomas o shea, paddy bradley and dessie dolan. These would strengthen any team. Dont see an exceptional fullback around though. Has anyone a good Fullback in mind.

cant think of a full back either, but would certainly have Bradley and O Se and Sean Kavanagh to strengthen my Down team. wouldn't mind Meehan from Galway or Seanie Johnston for that matter

Barry Owens FB,Dessie Dolan RHF and Nicholas Murphy( as stand-by midfielder) if Darragh or Seamus are injured or off form. No disrespect to Nickolas as he is in the top 4 in the country.

Cork need scoring forwards in both hurling and football so we would like to have:

Paddy Bradley
the Gooch
Stephen McDonnell

Eoin Kelly
Henry Shefflin
John Mullane

Marc O'Se, Thomas O'Se and Conor Gormley would do me for Dublin

Football

For the Clare team, our forwards are our biggest problem (half-forward line especialy). So I'd take

Declan O'Sullivan
Alan Brogan
Alan Dillon

Hurling

Could do with a more mobile midifeld and 1 or 2 more heavy-scoring forwards so:

Jerry O'Connor
Eddie Brennan
Eoin Kelly

I don't think there'd be too many disagreements there!

Roman Abramovich, let's be havin ya!!

Barry Owens.
Darragh O'Se.
Brian McGuigan.

And I'd like Halle Berry as my bird seeing that we are talking dreamland.

i wouldnt like to have some of ye as county managers !!!!! you get a choice of any 3 players to improve your team and most of you dont pick gooch( the besy footballer in the country by a distance), mindboggling. gooch is on a different level to all others and is the key player in the kerry set up,you cant not pick him.

Broken Arrow - It all depends on who you have in your team and where you have the most faults....

Dublin have the ability to kick good scores against any team as we have done for years but we suffer defensively so that is why the O'Se's were picked etc ahead of Gooch.

For my own team Longford I would pick -

Marc O'Se (corner Back)

Nicholas Murphy (Mid Field)

Paddy Bradley (Full Forward)

the gooch is over rated

dubsforsam....- you are correct that dubs backs arent great, and any 2 of the 3 you named would improve your team, however in most sports all the top teams are fairly close , it is that one or two players in a team that can separate them from the others,despite what some ppl think i would say about 12 of the current kerry team are more or less the same as the best players in all the other top teams, it is the likes of a gooch that makes the difference. he is as good a forward as i have ever seen over the last 40 years, aside from his clearly brillent skill levels, it is his speed of though and reading of game that is his greatest asset. my point is your 3 new defenders would make dubs a better team but proberly still not a all ire winning team, however 2 of those defenders plus the gooch would bring sam to dublin. as for the longford guy that thinks gooch is overated, well there is no point trying to get into tht head.
