He had a whiney voice, he looked like a scrawny child but few can deny Tyrone legend Peter Canavan was a true GAA legend. At times, the man showed more magic than Harry Potter and he will long be remembered as one of the Gaelic Footballs outstanding servants.
He won two All-Ireland Senior Football Championship medals, six GAA All Stars Awards (more than any other Ulster player, and joint third overall), four provincial titles, and two National Leagues. He represented Ireland in theInternational Rules Series on several occasions from 1998 until 2000. He is considered one of the greatest players of all time and was named in the Sunday Tribune's list of the 125 Most Influential People In GAA History.
His scoring record of 218 points is the second highest of all time in the Ulster Senior Football Championship. In the 1995 All-Ireland he kicked 11 of Tyrone’s points.
Sit back and enjoy watching this man weave his magic.
