Both absolutely superb goalies, although I'd give O'Leary a slight edge purely on his longevity. Paddy Cullen deserves a mention also. His penalty save against Galway in the All-Ireland final in '74 was the start of the glory years for the Dubs, and Paddy went on to win 3 All-Irelands and several All-Star awards in that era. Unfortunately he'll always be remembered for that Mike Sheehey goal. 35 years later & I still can't bear to watch it!
