12. Left half forward
Could've been me only for drink, cigarettes, injury, apathy - and lack of talent!

Re: 12. Left half forward
For me this is the easiest position to decide on. In my opinion, Pat Spillane was, far and away, the best left half forward I've seen. Strong, fast, exceptionally fit, scorer of big points. Think Brian Dooher, except bigger and more skillful.

Painful as it is to say it - Spillane was a master and is definitely the best 12 I ever saw - and usually it brought a lot of pain!

Unanimous.
Pat Spillane, best player, best panellist, friend of the north, my sporting hero.
And he beat St John's in the all Ireland final which counts for a lot on the Falls Road.

Re: 12. Left half forward
A no-brainer on this one. If there's been better than Packy McGarty in a 12 shirt then I've never seen him.
You may blatther on about Spillane among others (not to forget Tom "Curly" Prendergast of Laois) but the bould Packy has no peers when it comes down to it for the 12 slot.....
