Tommy "The Boiler" McGuinness is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for the Meath county team.
He is remembered for being a big, strong, robust player, regarded as a tough man, never too far removed from controversy whether on the pitch or in the meeting room.
There are one or two gaps in his CV and the men who remember those bygone days recall that there were varying degrees of clashes with officialdom which caused his omission from time to time - most notably the National Football League success of 1933 when he should have been at the height of his career.
In the 1930 Leinster Final against Kildare he was played Full Forward, a game which Meath drew.
The following year he played in the League final (as full forward) as Meath lost to Mayo.
