Johne Murphy (Ellistown) and Fionn Carr (Straffan) are currently playing intermediate football in Kildare having finished up playing pro-rugby. I think Carr is still lining out for Naas in the AIL.

Murphy hasn't played for Ellistown since 2015 I'm almost sure, he was very poor in his comeback. He would definitely have made it for Kildare before bulking up for Rugby. He destroyed Clane as an 18/19 year old in the senior championship when Clane were a good team and Ellistown were producing a good batch.

Eric Miller is the only high-profile rugby player I can recall that played football at a decent-ish level after retiring.

I was playing with Boden when he first came back out... he was a big unit and they shoved him in full forward but he was very rusty I'm presuming he improved before he made it to the Dubs development squad!

Probably not that much.
Think he only played one game for them.
Similar to Gavin Duffy with Mayo, I doubt he got the call up primarily as a result of his football ability.
If you were any use you'd be playing.
