is it mark hula ye are on about if so he played interfirm with us this summer still a great playerQuote:

As for hula, an average centre half, solid if nothin else, still at the moment the boro could do with him!!
He went for that haircut again a few years back.He looked the same and as you can probably tell,it didn't suit the second time round either.Quote:

Front Row : Jodie Delany, Ger Nash, Pat McGarry, (?), Karl Meehan, Jamie Dundon.
To answer one of the above questions, Jamie Dundon is signed with Hill Celtic this season as far as I know and why wouldnt he be a fine player back in the day??? He was 2/3 years overage and got away with it for years (as he produced a false birth cert, and he'll tell you that himself).
Taught it was stewy alright, sound foor clearing that up abbyvale
Abbeyvale, thats Paul Finucane between Pa McGarry and Karl Meehan.Quote:

he played with granville until the kennedy cup then went to pike for under 15s and 16s after that, i was on the bench for the same team under Pa Mul and we would have been a couple of years younger than that teamQuote:

Its amazing to see the few who made it through to play at premier level in Limerick, Its mostly down to the attitude of the player.
its def not paul as he wouldn't have been old enough, and the pike under 16's team he was on would have had gary power, jamie o'brien, and i think niall mc played with em up as far as 16's, just before he signed for forest, could be wrong thoughQuote:
