Brian was an absolute 'colossus... there is so much to say about him

TRIBUTES have poured in following the death of Dublin football legend Brian Mullins at the age of 68.

The four-time All Ireland winner, who made his name in the brilliant Dublin team of the 1970s, passed away yesterday, just days after his 68th birthday, following a recent illness.

The death of Mullins, who was a key cog in the Dubs' famous Heffo's Army that enjoyed a legendary rivalry with Kerry, has stunned the GAA world.

His club, St Vincents, described him as a "colossus".

In a statement, St Vincents GAA Club tweeted: "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Brian Mullins.

"An absolute colossus in St Vincents.

There's so much to say about the man and we're all still processing this.

"We'll honour him in the coming days. Ar dheis De raibh anman".
