Conor O'Neill and Ruairi McCullagh with the U20's
I liked how O'Rourke managed McElholm last year. Integrated him into the senior squad November to February, then released him full time to the U20s for the duration of their campaign. And brought him back in again after they won in May. Good template that for those two lads for the year ahead.

Conor Meyler hung up the boots. Super player, probably should have been player of the year in 2021
Retires with Sigerson Cup success at College, Oneill Cup success with his club and an All Ireland Title with his County

Opportunities opening up for some new talent to emerge on the panel...

Suprised by this. Thought after all the hard work he put in to recover from his injury that he would be back next year.

Top athlete and definitely should have been player of the year in 2021.

Not surprising, he had a very complex injury plus priors. Add to that the load of county football and standards he maintains, would lead to a breakdown at some point.

Whats the legal case all about?

IMO MOR give him the 'opportunity' to retire rather than drop/cut him ( of which he was one of a group of older lads whose time had come). 21 was one thing but the thing I admire about him is that he never dropped his standards the the few v poor years after AI and was really consistent - but with the type of injury he picked up and at the age he was always on the way down.

BUT with praise and admiration there has to come criticism recently with his woke exploits on everything under the sun regarding his doctorate and gpa bullshit etc. it became more of Conor using Tyrone and Tyrone getting nothing in return so, I will expect a deluge of interviews and podcasts where he will plug his nose tape and his thoughtful empathic opinions for anything that's topical

Retweet!

Fantastic player for us. Really came into his in the Dooher Logan years. As has been said would definitely been my FOTY in 2021. Improved his game and footballing ability year on year but sadly injuries caught up with him in his prime years.

Now is the time for another to seize their chance.

Could he not give Omagh a year or 2? Even their stiffs or thirds? Perhaps that wouldn't suit him

Lads, any Tyrone managers looking posts for next year?
