The ultimate in Gaelic football? This week James Horan, Maurice Brosnan and Paul Rouse look at the intense and memorable 2005 All-Ireland final between Kerry and Tyrone to investigate how football was changing in the early years of the new millennium, while Tony Leen speaks to Kingdom boss Jack O'Connor.
