Seánie Duggan

Seánie Duggan, who lived from 2 November 1922 to 26 September 2013, was an Irish hurler from Galway who played as a goalkeeper for the Galway senior team. He joined the Galway senior team at twenty-one, made his debut in the 1943 championship and played a key part as the last line of defence for more than a decade, though he enjoyed little success in terms of silverware and was an All-Ireland runner-up once. He represented Connacht at inter-provincial level, winning one Railway Cup medal in 1947, and at club level won two championship medals with Liam Mellows. He made 12 championship appearances and retired following Galway's defeat by Cork in the 1953 All-Ireland final. His brothers Jimmy and Paddy also played with distinction for Galway, and their sister Monica was a renowned camogie player. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest hurlers in the history of the game and was voted goalkeeper on a Team of the Century of players never to have won an All-Ireland medal.
