Serves them right.
That's what you get for developing young players.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

So who are the Irish Lads being targeted this year

Carlow - Brendan Murphy
Galway - Michael Martyn
Laois - Zac Tuohy
Cork - Michael Shields, Ciaran Sheehan
Tyrone - Karl Coney
Armagh - Kevin Dyas

Is there any more?

How many of these have actually worked out?? Is Tuohy back or still playing? What about Martyn? All the rest are back playing.

Don't think Michael Martin even left in the end. Was in or around the Galway squad for a while but off it now. Still playing for his club.

Kyle Coney is back and isn't county standard, Kevin Dyas is also back at his club, not sure why he wasn't on the Armagh panel this year.  If you want to throw in Marty Clarke and Caolan Mooney from Down they didn't make the cut, for different reasons.  Ulster lads don't seem to fair too well in Oz

Conor McKenna seems to be doing well with Essendon although he is still very young.
Living the dream!!!

Probably because no one can understand them :D

Ballaghaderreen's Pearce Hanley has moved clubs - to the Gold Coast Suns(!!!!)

Tuohy and Pearce Hanley would be regulars for their respective clubs.  Hanley in particular very highly thought of and has just traded to gold coast. Sheeehan I think is at Calton and has done reasonably well in the few matches I've seen him play.

Mckenna was in and out of the Essendon team this year and did ok. They were missing something like 15 first team players all this year due to a performance drugs issue so it's hard to see him making an impact when they return in 2017

Dyas was injured for most of the year I think

Fucks sake. I don't mean this in a bad way, but I hope he doesn't end up there. Colin O'Riordan going there is a massive loss, coupled with Stephen O'Brien's decision to warm the bench for the hurlers. Jack Kennedy going as well would be a big blow.

Supposed to have done well, has retained his place for this week.
