Tyrone Native Paddy Quinn lines out for the Dubs

[take_yer_points]

Is he 31 or 32 though, as mentioned above? That would be a strange age to be coming onto a panel. I may dust off the auld boots. Oh hang on, not 39 or 40?

I would've said late 20's but that's only a guess - can't imagine he'll still be around come the league.

Definitely at least 31 - I'd say he'll be 32 before the championship starts this year (if he isn't already)

I thought that too, especially as the Dubs had a Tyrone (Vincents) man/spy in the Dublin background panel the last 3 or 4 years.

Who's that??

Probably means Michael Kennedy.

[Fuzzman]

Yeah Michael

Was there every any other Tyrone or Uslter lads whi ever played for the Dubs before?
I know MD Macauleys dad is from Donegal but MD was born & raised in Ballyboden.

Will be interesting to see how young Connolly plays this year.
If he gets his tantrums sorted out he could be one of the best players in the game in my eyes.

That is the wrong Michael there fuzzman.
Michael Kennedy on the Dublin backroom team, is a Cranagh man (Glenelly)

[Fuzzman]

LOL

Yes I was only messing STB

I know Mickey well as I've met him several times in Dublin
He's a shrewd man for the Dubs to have

Paddy must have impressed Gavin over pre season. I noticed he's named in first 15 this weekend.

Yeah I was discussing him with a few Dubs that have been to all the games and also a Cork man who saw him in the final.
They all say he's a hard working wing forward but they will be surprised if he makes the championship team.
He must be doing something right to come in over the age of 30 and nail down a starting place

it is a refreshing story and gives hope to 40 year olds everywhere.

he played against us several times throughout the noughties. he was a decent club player then, but u wouldnt have been calling for him to be in the tyrone setup. he must be one of those players who gets better with age. fair play to him.
