Anto Finnegan and his family were guests of honour at Dublin's All-Ireland SFC medal presentation last night.
Jim Gavin and his players showed a touch of class by inviting the former Antrim football captain - who was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in August 2012 - to join in on their three-in-a-row Sam Maguire Cup celebrations.
Last night, captain Stephen Cluxton & Co made a presentation to Finnegan and his family to mark the occasion while there was also a special presentation to long-serving midfielder Denis Bastick who recently announced his inter-county retirement.
