David Sheppard- contract not renewed, don't know where he has gone
Ciaran Foley- had an operation over the winter, ruled out til June/July. He may re-join the squad then
Ger Cheevers- think he has signed for our A Team/U-19 team
David Butterfield- Haven't a clue about him
Rhys Meynell- there were registration problems, cannot sign until June at the earliest. He may sign then, but I wouldn't be so sure

thats Sean Kelly surely? not Shaun? oh wait you have him in midfield. Have ye signed a Shaun and a Sean Kelly?
Both Sean Kelly (former GUFC, Limerick, Cork player) and Shaun Kelly (former Dundalk) have signed up.

He is sticking to the GAA this year I think, didn't rally feature that much last year anyway

Yes, Duffy is from Sligo, don't know anything about him apart from being a defender though.

Eduardo is a midfielder, I presume he's Brazilian. He'll be mainly with our A team aswell I think

There is 2 Eduardo's at Galway,

Eduardo Lacerda - 02/03/1992
Eduardo Dusi Alvim Silveira Cordeiro (Dudu) - 13/10/1989

Yes, it appears to be the same Keith Duffy.

Fair play to C Morrison on his winning goal last night, I was suprised, didnt think he would cut it, but gud luck to the lad.

He's a striker. He played one match last season as well.

Was talking to one of our coaches about him when he was in the squad last year (3-2 win v Rovers); was very highly spoken of. Might have come on in that game had it not gone the way it did. Great boost for the lad to score on his league debut though; be great if he can take some of the pressure off Rusky. Also meant we could go 4-4-2; never liked that 4-3-2-1 larky last season.
