gooch all day...gooch unlike brogan doesnt have to depend on getting a vast number of scores to have a good day he is more a play maker he spots the pass others doesnt and that is what separates them for example both had off days in regards scoring in their last games but gooch was still influential in kerry winning

One good season is right, he has been around a while and he only really played his best last season. One season doesn't make you a great player.

Since Bernard championship debut in 07 he's had two bad games Kerry 09 and louth last year, every other game he's been very good.

He had a fairly bad game Sunday if i remember right.... I dont remember him doing anything in 07, 08, or 09 in the games that mattered

Well in 09 against 16 kildare players in the leinster final Bernard ran amok. In 08 his season was ruined with a hamstring injury but still game on against tyrone and played well even doh we were getting hammered.in 07 leinster final against laois he had a great game and got a great goal.

Tom Sullivan destroyed Brogan in 09

Not sure if he was bad, just well held.

I see there's been no mention of Brogan's first point on Sunday.

If Gooch scored a point like that this site would crash as ye'd all be tripping over yourselves to get to the computer and start raving on about it.

gooch has done it when it MATTERED how many all irelands / allstars has he? a silly thread in my opinion bernard has good potential as does donie shine ciaran sheehan m murphy to be honest in better teams dessie dolan declan brown mattie forde benny coulter and possibly the bradley brothers would be not only be his equal but better. Gooch is up there on his todd come back in ten years when bernard has actually achieved something {maybe} before starting silly threads like this

booboo I don't think you know what you're talking about.

Brogan having potential? He won the Player of the Year and Dublin didn't even get to the All- Ireland final.

Did Matty Forde win the Player of the Year in 2008 when Wexford reached the All- Ireland semi-final? NO..

So I don't know how you can say any of them would be as good as Brogan.

Anyway, does it matter about how many All-Irelands you win?

Tommy Griffin has five All- Irelands but I don't think anyone would say he's as good as say Darren Hughes from Monaghan who has won nothing.

That shows you don't need All- Irelands to be classed as better than someone.
