RTÉ commentator has been saying same thing after All-Ireland final goals for years

It's like a catchphrase!

John McGrath's second goal in the All-Ireland final was a cracker and put Tipperary out of sight against Cork, on their way to the All-Ireland SHC title.

On commentary was the famed duo of Marty Morrissey and Offaly's Michael Duignan, with the latter describing the score as "as good a goal as I've seen in an All-Ireland final".

While it was a nice flick to finish, we have certainly seen better goals in finals, with Tony Kelly's in last year's showpiece arguably the best ever.

Fans also pointed out that it was not the first time Duignan had made this claim, and we have five examples below of him saying something similar; Robert Downey for Cork in 2024, Galway's David Burke in 2012, Conor McGrath for Clare in 2013, and Tony Kelly for Clare last year.
