Tribute from Paul Connolly:

"Growing up in four roads in the late 70's and early 80's was a very special time. Michael brought me to every training session in Johnie Mees, I often played in goal during backs and forwards, a scared 10 or 11 year old on a field with giants. In front of me during the game were the finest half back line ever assembled on a hurling field. Ive played the game at club level, county and college and never ever did I see their equal. They were joined at the hip, they knew what the other guy would do before he done it. An orchestra of hurling perfection. RIP JD, I am honoured to have witnessed the perfect game."
