Tadhg Kennellys AFL Trials

Daniel Flynn has a great phsyical presence and you would imagine he will do well in AFL providing he gets no injuries. He was one of the few Kildare U21's that stood out last year against Galway in the u21 AIS, was still 19.
Hurley was decent too.

I'd be surprised- if you look at the players who've made it out there. They were exceptionally skilled players.

Big lads haven'd done so well

I think Hurley might be a bit old to be changing code now.

Flynn could well make it. He has incredible speed and acceleration for a lad of his size.

He's not the first Irish lad with those attributes to go over. Hanley, Kennelly , Tuohy and Clarke were exceptionally skillful as well.

Best of luck to him

Obviously not but I wouldn't say his ball skills are lacking either. He was the main man on a Hogan Cup winning team only two years ago.

He has lots of skill from what I seen of him, I remember that Hogan final alright , Edenderry against St Michaels Enniskillen.

He obviously has skill - he just never struck me as someone who'd excel at AFL.

No worries, didn't look out of the place in the PTV, which is the reserve league a few months ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u004PgG8WbA

Looks like Paddy Brophy is gone now as well.

There will be no footballers left in north Kildare at this rate.

At least ye have a good crop of U21 hurlers. Not as fine as ours though.

[Jinxy]

There will be no footballers left in north Kildare at this rate.

I don't see what the big deal is, just make some more.

We've had our tech budget cut to pay for Dublin's coaches...

see Flynn give a mighty hit in a game in the aussie rules, maybe a reserve game,

[Never beat the deeler]

Was flicking through Fox Footy at the weekend and came across The Recruit. I had heard of this show but never watched it - basically it is a reality TV show where AFL footballers who haven't yet made it for one reason or another are given a shot at winning a contract.

Padraig Lucey from Kerry was on the show, and apparently he made it down to the final few competitors, before losing out when they made a call between him and another ruckman. A quick look at bigfooty (AFL forum) and people are talking him up that he may be offered a contract - mainly because he is still young at 21 and many of the other recruits are already 24/25.

Anybody know any more about Padraig?
