Kerry legend Mick O’Connell truly a footballer for all time

But another reason why it seemed so fitting that the Association of Irish Journalists chose to honour Mick O’Connell this week and not just this year was because of a certain fixture in Croke Park this Sunday.
Here we are on the eve of another Dublin-Kerry All Ireland semi-final. A game that will be televised live not just on RTÉ but Sky Sports with more than 15 cameras tracking the action and exploits of players like Brogan, Cooper, Connolly, Cluxton and O’Donoghue.
