Here, never mind, to quote Colm O Rourke "Peter Canavan was the best player to ever tie up a pair of boots in Croke Park", I'm an Armagh man and I have to agree he was at his brilliant best in the mid to late 90's but boy he was something else. We all saw him play be thankful.

oh i agree the names you mentioned are the true greats of the GAA but in terms of the generation over the last 10 - 15 yrs he was a great great player..im a galway man and its nice to see great players winning medals that they deserve..think about the likes of Graham Canty and Ollie Canning..might never see an All Ireland but have given so much

Astrological weather in 2005=Jupiter was inside Zodiac sign of Libra & South Node was inside Libra & North Node was inside Aries now 4th September 2005 (when Tyrone advanced to the Final vs Kerry) Peter Canavan was born Sun Sign in Aries & Moon Sign in Libra he was Tyrone while Kieran Mc Geeney was born Sun Sign in Libra & Moon Sign in Libra he was Armagh so it favoured Tyrone more in year 2005 than Armagh or Kerry to win Sam Maguire that year. 4 September 2005=4+9+2005=2018=2+0+1+8=11 Justice day that was suitable karmic justice revenge for 23 July 2005=23+7+2005=2035=2+0+3+5=10 Wheel of Fortune day

He stil did have a big impact for kerry, coming up wit crucial scores to win tight games. For his skill, i tink ter has never been anybody as good as him in gaelic football. canavan was never close to some of the greats in the gaa such as christy ring, dj carey, jack o se, pat spillane, micky sheehy, john egan, jimmy barry murphy, eddie keher the list goes on

when owen mulligan asked peter canavan to kick winning free kick on 4th september 2005 at approx 5.05pm "mercury inside leo trine capricorn ascendent" symbolic as mercury=communication & younger man asked older man to ascend and rise to take the free kick. Armagh in 2003 2005 got the defeats they deserved at the hands of the better & more deserving county of Tyrone

by the way Ancient Ogre i heard you did a 1 point prediction of your own using microsoft email account now outlook on 5th September 2011 you tipped Dublin to defeat Kerry which they did by 1 point thanks to Stephen Cluxton you emailed Brendan Crossan of Irishnews before hand & Dublin gaa plus Kerry gaa of your prediction so they knew of their impending defeat to come like Armagh gaa in 2005 at the hands of Tyrone gaa & Sunday game long before kick off days in advance with your method=Tarot cards plus i-ching. I m glad to have met another Irish soothsayer like yourself so stay in touch. But Brendan Crossan Irishnews newspaper never thanked you for that correct prediction he was probably insanely jealous of it coming true plus rest of the Irishnews as they all (except Kevin Madden who backed Dublin) tipped Kerry gaa for Sam Maguire before that final. So if you meet Brendan Crossan don t buy him any drinks for not acknowledging that or for not thanking you. Soothsayers knew more than seasoned sports journalists at times.

Peter Canavan=Tyrone Gaa was Full Moon born person=Sun in Aries opposite Moon in Libra while Kieran Mc Geeney=Armagh Gaa was New Moon phase born person=Sun in Libra conjunct close to Moon in Libra & Kieran Mc Geeney+Paul Mc Grane both Armagh have Chiron in Aries but North node in Aries on 4th September 2005 favoured Tyrone more & Peter Canavan had last kick of the ball that day when it came to final score of the day. Also 4th September 2005 was also a New Moon Phase day as the Sun was inside Libra & Moon was inside Libra so Sun conjunct Moon but it did not favour New Moon person Kieran Mc Geeney but Full Moon Born person=Peter Canavan. Also that day Armagh vice captain Paul Mc Grane is New Moon born person his Sun in Cancer & Moon in Cancer so Sun conjunct aka close Moon.

He was good like but he definitely isn't the best in GAA history. He was called "The best player in GAA not to have won an All Ireland" but then Tyrone people decided once he won an All Ireland he automatically becomes the best player ever. The thing is, it doesn't really work like that.

i respect armagh for 2002 win but not complaining over kerry bearing down on goal in 2002 final they chose to vent their anger at tyrone over 2003 final why is their campaign on gaa to "pick on tyrone" i guess armagh were bitter over being denied back to back maiden all ireland title in 2003 to join elites of down and offaly. when armagh refer to tyrone as dirty team. they ain t clean themselves. am i just? course i m just person only fucking idiot would dare say otherwise. armagh in 2003 final just went flat what happened? but tyrone were the better team in 2003 2005 2008 it has to be said.

tyrone were robbed on 23 july 2005 in anglo celt cup replay by armagh 23+7+2005=2035=2+0+3+5=10 wheel of fortune so 4 september 2005 was true sporting justice karmic. 1945 allies defeated nazis in world war 2 & 2005 tyrone defeated eg dublin armagh kerry en route. 1945 & 2005=both wood rooster years (5 elements 12 animal signs=60 year cycle) tyrone the good guys won all ireland 2005 plain and simple just like they won in 2003 and 2008.

even in the last fifteen years of gaelic football there has been better footballers than him. Both seamus moynihan, dara o se wer better than him even though i don't like saying it (i am from cork). if you wer to include hurlers from that period the likes of DJ Carey, Henry Shefflin, Ben O'Connor, Tommy Walsh all achieved more and wer better than Canavan. I saw him play in the All Ireland final and the first game of the Ulster final that year and i have to say he didn't look anything great!
