A quiet, modest gentleman and one of the greatest we may never see his likes again. As a young boy he gave me some really great advice in cahersiveen about how to maximize the benefit of your practice and how you could measure your progress yourself. His dedication was immense. Saw him in his 40s for south Kerry giving some man of the match appearances you just couldn’t believe the talent on show.
When the GAA are trying to decide the rules they just need to look at players like Maurice and Mat Connor and say "How can we ensure that pure footballers are let play". I'm not sure Maurice would be the same in today's rugby league type game.

lovely video
the two footer kicker G.O.A.T
Great video
"BEST KICKER OF THE BALL-LEFT FOOT OR RIGHT FOOT" think it sums him up perfectly. Point against Dublin was class.
one of the greats ever not like the shit football we have now
pure genius
What a footballing legend. Two amazing feet. He just had all the skills. My favourite all time player.

Not sure who I loved more… Maurice Fitz or Ferry Corsten lol
They just don't make them like that anymore.
Love this video of my namesake. My father would have loved it.
Legend
They don't make them like Maurice nowadays. 👏
He won a Sam in '97 from memory. Did he win any more?
Preferred the old music
He had 2 wands for feet!!

Elegance. It looks like slow motion. His timing and misdirection made it virtually impossible to mark him.
He was such a class act. Unmatchable on his day!
Didn’t watch him but many say he’s the greatest footballer ever
