Always loved watching this man play for Mayo. Down to earth lad. Even more admiration for this man after watching this interview.

1 of the greatest players of all time.Best foot passer in the history of the sport.

He is a leftie and left handed or kicker is the best in any sport :-).

I agree. Only one player in recent memory that was comparable at putting a ball into your chest in your favour consistently is Marty Clarke from Down.

In a county where we love our football, Ciarán McDonald still remains one of the greatest legends of all. Amazing player who has the respect of the entire GAA world. That says it all. Thank you, Ciarán, for your amazing contribution to Mayo GAA and which is still so much to the fore with the current Mayo team under the management of James Horan. Absolute LEGEND!!

One of the best players never to win an All-Ireland football medal. Brilliant exponent of the game

We put him in our Team of the Millennium Not to Win an All-Ireland video. Man was unrivalled, in my opinion.

Excellent interview lads. Always admired Ciarán McDonald as a player. So graceful, so accurate, so tough!

One of my all time favorite players,brilliant talent,I,m a 65 year old Meath man

He would fit perfectly into any modern team. He was one of the greatest and years ahead of his time.

I consider him the greatest ever Gaelic Footballer

Classy player on the pitch, classy off it, too. Looking forward to Sunday. Loved how he played the game - Dubs fan broken-hearted in '06!

One of the greatest without a doubt

Comes across as a very well, seems like a nice man.

I played soccer with him in my aunts garden in crossmolina in 1984.. he said I was a great player !.. thats some compliment from one of the greatest GAA players ever

Class man great interview, sad he hasnt done many more. Really good insight from him and playing.

Absolute legend. Superstar , Beckham of gaelic. Galway man.

He had to be the best and still is ... He would make you watch it because he was so good, And to think he never got a medal when he should have twenty medals or more .... West Of Ireland.............

luv that lad his outside of the foot kick was awesome

Galway man here..one of the very best footballers of all time

Great interview.great player.

Agree as a Meath man meet him working up in Meath in the mid 00 lovely fella to think I hated him when he played but Jesus he was some player

Class. My favourite footballer

One of the most naturally talented gaelic footballers I have ever seen playing...particularly his kicking and passing ability were 2nd to none and made him a pleasure to watch live. He had a special ability that you're born with which would be impossible to coach.. Diarmuid Connolly is another player of McDonalds ilk with very similar attributes imo

He's our Diego maradona, our messi, in mayo he's the best we ever had.

myself and my father saw him in caseys in castlebar in 2017. saw that famous XI tatto on his arm. i was in awe.

Congratulations on your new arrival conor am sure she will bring you much joy thanks again for all your help and tips highlight of the day 😎😎😎😎

In my opinion,the best ever

Amazing footballer

At the end of the video Murph took Rory Macilroy's picture down from 2nd place only to immediately put it back there. 🤔

The best footballer ever..he had it all..best passer ever..either foot didn't matter..hard as nails..such a pity he didn't win an All ireland..he's still gud enough to still be playing

Great bloke

Top lad !

What a legend. Derry Man.

Kieran you were a good one I admired your style Longford support mayo

fine footballer

Legend, and a great player. Seems like a nice lad aswell.

Hero

He seems a really nice man

Humble

Those interviewers are absolute muppets. He said it was not on his sister was verbally abused at a game and they asked him did he regret leaving. Obviously not, he had to make a point to those know it all county fans who think they can abuse county players and their families just because they feel like it.

If u ar feeling sad just go to 5min and u cant stop smiling

An excellent player mc Donald and as a nice man

Has he always spoken like this? He seems quite shy or nervous or something in the way he talks. Thanks for uploading video, really interesting interview and a player I admired as a kid.

Sound man

Andrew Convey Nothing to saucy, but as a 16 year old I had the misfortune to work along side him as a machine driver/Labour for summer work between my studies, in total two summers. It was back when he was full pelt with mayo gaa and at first I was looking forward to working with him as I had held him with great esteem. But little did I know it would be my first encounter with a bully. I’ll tell you one incident only and it will give you a feel of what kind of human this guy is. As Forman he was over dishing out the meal tickets for the week. I was away from my parents galway home and working in Limerck paying diggs too so meal tickets meant a lot to a 16 year old at that time. When I would ask him for my weeks supply of meal tickets his reply was “your only half a man you don’t get them” laughing as he said it too and that just wasn’t the response to me it was for was for most of the younger fellas on site. Most of the younger workers would have to share tickets and club together so we could eat. It’s water under the bridge for me now, but I got my back up when I heard the shite coming out of his mouth in that interview. Never work with your hero’s! Moral of the story.
