3 Offaly players in total for 20 years (80s and 90s)
5 Clare players for (95-99)

It shows what a team's hype can do for an individual's reputation.
Anthony Daly was a good leader, but a limited hurler. Liam Dunne or Willie O'Connor were better performers.

I'd have John Leahy and Johnny Dooley before Gary Kirby, Martin Storey or Jamsie O'Connor.

Tommy Dunne didn't do anything spectacular in the 90s. His best hurling was in the 00s.
