Mick Mulhall was one of the greatest goalkeepers ever produced by Laois, with whom he played for over a decade.
He won nine county medals between 1971 and 1987, and two more as sub to Paddy Bracken, as well as five Leinster club medals in 1972, 1976, 1982, 1985, 1987 and an AllIreland club in 1983. He also played with Leinster and was Laois Footballer of the Year for 1982.

Paddy was a member of the Laois minor hurling team of 1934 that won Leinster honours and was pipped by a point by Tipperary in a farcical finish to the All-Ireland final which was kept going for over ten minutes of extra time until the Munster men got the winning score.
By common consent John Taylor was one of the finest hurlers in the history of Portlaoise or Laois GAA. No question. He made the number 7 jersey his own and wore it with great distinction for the town for two decades, winning eight senior championships in the process
