Think you followed Michael Murphy’s career and know everything? Well, let’s put that to the test…
Michael Murphy has officially retired from the inter-county stage, but not without leaving his mark on the game.
The Donegal captain has had a glittering career, and during what has been the most fruitful and successful era in the county’s history, there is no denying that the Glenswilly man has been at the heart of that.
Talisman, star man, key man, focal point, main threat, leader; whatever way you want to describe him, the fact of the matter is that Murphy has been the soul of this Donegal team for over a decade.
With such responsibility comes great pressure and expectations, meaning that his whole career has been under the magnifying glass, but have you been paying attention?
This is the Ultimate Michael Murphy quiz, the ins and outs of Donegal’s greatest ever player, and one of the finest to ever kick a size five O’Neills ball.
There are stats, true or false conundrums, club questions and a general knowledge round, and we’re not saying that getting 20/20 is impossible, but let’s say that even Murphy himself would struggle to get a perfect score.
Good luck!
