The country's most prolific pundit, Brolly is not exactly the sort to steer clear of controversy. If there's something to be said, then the Derry All-Ireland winner certainly isn't one for standing behind the door.

The recently-retired St Eunan's attacker has played at the very highest level for club, county, province and country, and is quickly earning a reputation as one of Ulster's brightest punditry prospects.
