i can only remember as far as mid nineties but in that timeframe it must be maurice fitz in 97. other honourable mentions would be joyce in 01,mcgeeney 02,cooper 04 and sean cavanagh in 08.in hurling i d say daly in 95[purely for stepping up to hit the 65 to put em in the lead with min to go]whelehan in 98 brian corcoran in 99 shefflin in 02 tommy walsh 09 and lar corbett this year.they are standout ones for me in last 15 years but maurice fitz is by far and away the best

Have to go with Peter Canavan in 95 or Sean Cavanagh in 08 probably Canavan at a push.
