Micko well off it too! sligo joe (Dublin) - Posts: 975 - 12/07/2025 05:51:07 2625036 Link

The standout performer on that list is Gavin, senior intercounty manager for 7 seasons, 6 All Irelands, 7 Leinsters and 5 national leagues sligo joe (Dublin) - Posts: 975 - 12/07/2025 13:24:11 2625063 Link

I think he can overtake him over the next couple of years but to be mentioned in the same conversation of the greatness of some of those on the list he surely has to do back-to-back titles? Something that has eluded him so far. TrueBlue35 (Dublin) - Posts: 299 - 14/07/2025 10:08:44 2625523 Link

Something that has eluded him so far." The sign of greatness is back to back in fairness - the old seige mentality fails in year 2 - so it takes actual qualify management to motivate a team that everyone is praising to find something extra in year 2, 3 or even later. Gavin, Cody etc were able to get their teams so see the All Ireland as being theirs and looking at the opposition as trying to steal it from them, like a family stopping someone from stealing their child. tirawleybaron (Mayo) - Posts: 1511 - 14/07/2025 13:29:10 2625612 Link
