Bryan Cullen retires

[Declan]

Good long IC career and a great servant to the Dubs. Not too many lads around can say they lifted Sam. Thanks for the memories Bryan and enjoy the rest of your footballing career

Retiring to the VIP lounge in Coppers. 
Handled the transition from minor to senior really well.
Just lacked that bit of pace but a seriously intelligent and hard-working footballer.

Thanks Cullen.

He was looked on as a new Kev Moran - but it was that lack of pace at centre back that undid him - certainly he had the football for the position. Pivotal in 2011, I would argue - having him and Cattser on the half forward line gave huge solidity to the centre and both had the skills to get vital scores. Did dog's work getting on the ball and wasn't far off the standard that Galvin set for that roving role.

Probably the best thing that can be said of him is that despite the fact he was a natural gifted footballer, he never hesitated to sacrifice himself for the team, whether that was filling in around midfield, shoring up the defence or at wing forward. A class act, and I still grin whenever someone gives it "See yis all in Coppers, yeah?"

Enjoy the rest Bryan.

Disappointed to hear they didn't even go to Coppers in the end.
