Hi, the newsreel clip of the 1951 final is no longer available.
I have a picture of the 1951 team taken on All-Ireland day and can identify most of the players. However, I am trying, without success, to identify the late Mick Mulderrig, whom I met in later life and want to be able to highlight him in the picture. Maybe you could help?
Incidentally, I attended both the semi-final and final to see Mayo win the All-Ireland of 1951. Mick was a sub in the final, having played in most of the earlier matches including th e semi-final.
Does anyone have the full squad from 1950/51?
My father was Sean Mulderrig and he came on as a substitute in the 1950 final and then played in the 1951 final, thereby wining 2 All-Irelands. If I’m correct I believe he also played in the 1948 final defeat. My uncle Mick Mulderrig played in the 1950 final but, as you note he was not a starter in the 1951 final so that may be why he is not in the picture? If you post the team picture for 1951 I think I should be able to identify him.
