For those interested, John Egan (Jnr) scored a cracker for Southend last night.

Not a bad effort for a cork man.

Hit it straight at the keeper. His Da would have stuck it in the corner

The below information appears in Michael Moynihan's column online in the Examiner here www.irishexaminer.com/sport/columnists/michael-moynihan/silence-in-west-cork-in-stark-contrast-with-last-years-brian-cuthbert-talk-385944.htmlWord reaches us of a move to honour one of the true greats of football, the late John Egan of Kerry and Sneem. The powerful forward was one of the most feared attackers of his day, and it says something his reputation held its own among those of the other attackers on the most celebrated GAA team of all time. He scored vital goals in All-Ireland finals when they were needed, and in doing so became one of the most appreciated under-appreciated players, though that was just among the public. His opponents were always wary of the damage Egan could do and they usually spent games in his company in a state of semi-alarm. Now it appears Sneem GAA and others — not all of them in Kerry — have decided to mark his impact on the game, and on his home place, with a permanent physical reminder of Egan’s ability. We’ll be coming back to deal with this in further detail in the coming weeks.
