Gus Cremin (26 January 1921 – 13 November 2014) was an Irish Gaelic footballer who played for Kerry GAA.
It was a dramatic match and late goals from Paddy Burke and "Gega" O'Connor helped snatch a draw for the Kingdom.
With fifteen minutes left in the replay Kerry were trailing Roscommon by two points, who showed no sign of losing their lead.
Entering that last quarter Kerry made the move that won the match by finally allowing the former captain to come on the field as a sub.
The following year Gus was most unfortunate when a broken leg sustained in a North Kerry League game prevented him from traveling to America for the historic 1947 Polo Grounds Final in New York.
