If you check the Football Trivia post in this forum (around page 9), all the players are listed. You can add in Ronnie O'Brien (Juventus and Grasshoppers Zurich) and Niall Quinn (almost moved to Sporting Lisbon, but it fell through)

Shame on the Cork Ciry fans for missing Pat Morley for Sunshine St George in Australia and Anthony Buckley with some yankee team or are you only counting internationals?

Martin Sheehan, who played so successfully for Cork Hibs, played for a while in S. Africa.
Does that count?;)

These are the Irish players outside these islands that I am aware of. Kohlmann is said to be a good prospect. Many Irish players have spent time playing in the U.S., including Seán Finn of U.C.D.

BELGIUM

Graham Stack (G) (KSK Beveren) ON LOAN

CYPRUS

James Panayi (D) (Apollon Limassol) [mother from Co. Tipperary]

GERMANY

Jason Byrne (M) (VFL Kirchheim)
Patrick Kohlmann (D) (Borussia Dortmund) [Irish grandparents]

NETHERLANDS

Tony Emmelkamp (G) (FC Utrecht)

UNITED STATES

Paul Conway (F) (Charleston Battery) [son of Jimmy Conway]
Séamus Donnelly (F) (Charleston Battery)

Doh, forgot about him!:o

There's an underage goalkeeper, van Zanten or something like that, in Holland as well.
