THE KERRY FOOTBALLER who was the last surviving player from the famous Polo Grounds All-Ireland final in 1947, has passed away.
Mick Finucance played with the Ballydonoghue GAA club in North Kerry GAA.
He lined out five times in championship for Kerry, including a substitute appearance in the All-Ireland senior football final on 14 September 1947 at the Polo Grounds in New York.
Cavan were crowned champions as they triumphed in that match by 2-11 to 2-7.
Tributes have been paid today to Finucane. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
