Christy Ring would be an automatic but picking the ultimate Railway Cup hurling dream team is impossible

Many have followed in their footsteps in the Déise but, my God, they were legends of their time.

You would have Diarmuid O’Sullivan, Brian Corcoran, Denis Coughlan, Martin O’Doherty, Tony Maher, John Horgan, both Brian Murphys, Johnny Crowley, Dermot McCurtain, Seán Óg (below), John Gardiner, from Cork to choose from for defensive positions.

Here is just a random selection, Ray Cummins, JBM, Charlie McCarthy, Tomás Mulcahy, Tony O’Sullivan, Joe Deane, Ben O’Connor, Patrick Horgan, Nicky English, Willie Walsh, Pat Fox, Lar Corbett, Babs Keating, Paul Flynn, Michael Cleary, Jamesie O’Connor, Tony Kelly, Niall Gilligan, John Mullane, Noel Casey, Gary Kirby, Eamon Cregan, and so on.
