Full Set Of Medals

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Out of curioustiy, is there many players that have the full set of medals, Provincial minor,U21,Senior & All-Ireland Minor,U21,Senior?
I think a few of the tyrone & Dublin boys might have them but not sure who else?
I Know of one Monaghan man to have the three provincial but obviously not the AI so anybody any thoughts?

Mike frank Russell's medal haul is ridiculous. He has won the colleges and sigerson, minor, u21 and senior all Ireland championships and the league. He also won the club championship with Laine Rangers.

Yes many times. Including doing what Dublin did this year and going unbeaten in 87/88 (league started in Nov) , last time was 1994 if memory serves me right.

I doubt if anyone could match Jimmy Barry Murphy overall. He has the full set of medals for both Club & County in hurling and the only medal missing for both Club & County in football is the under 21. He does have a Munster Under 21 OK.
Hurling - Minor 1971, Under 21 1973 Senior 1976/77/78/84/86 Inter Provincial 1981, National League 80/81 Club All Ireland 74/77
Football- Minor 1972 Under 21 (Provincial Medal 1974) Senior 1973 Inter Provincial 75/76/77/78 National League 80 Club Football 70/80

Brian Murphy from cork has the full set in both codes both county and club.
Jimmy Barry Murphy is one short in both codes both club and county. I think it's the all Ireland u21 he doesn't have but he has the rest.

That's mental! It'll never happen again. Ridiculous achievement!

Brian Murphy has the full set of Inter County Football & Hurling Championship medals. He played with Nemo Rangers so wouldn't have a Club All Ireland Hurling but does have 4 All Ireland Club Football medals. Doesn't have a National Football League medal either. Has both Hurling & Football Inter Provincial medals & a Hurling National League.
One of my all time favourite players.

He also managed Cork minors and seniors to all Ireland success.
Absolutely astonishing achievements both as a player in both codes and in management.
And more importantly he's a very modest gentleman that has time for everybody.
I don't think his achievements will ever be surpassed.

JBM achievements are astonishing.

I think Tony Davis is the only player to hold AI senior, junior, minor and under 21 medals. (as an aside - he also has a club All-Ireland in 1992)
