Dominant Dublin still rule over Meath

Dublin 0-21 Meath 0-11: Paddy Cullen tells a story of a thunderous hit that put Colm O’Rourke to the turf in the last of the four-in-a-row games in 1991.

Eamon Heery and Keith Barr nailed O’Rourke from either side and down dropped Meath’s hero.

“I thought he was dead,” recalled Cullen, Dublin’s manager in ’91. “He was down and looked for all the world like he was actually dead. The next thing, mother of Jaysus, he gets up and plays on! How he did it I’ll never know.”
