Have either of ye seen him play?
I doubt it!
Coz the couple of times I saw him (one in the Collingwood Cup final) he looked good for a intervarsity standard but not the kind of guy who'd make it at a higher level. I dunno, just my opinion.
Dolan was watching him back then and didn't sign him.

I doubt Rose will blossom in the smog of Inchicore.

Looked a little lightweight on Sunday but brilliantly set up our goal. Seemed very good on the ball but definitely needed a bit of work. How old is he?

That would be his main downfall, but then he can change that I spose.

I'd say he's 20.

Seen him play a number of times, like you say very good on the ball but he can be pushed off it very easily, no muscle in the boy.

For every goal he'll score he'll miss three or four sitters but he does get into the positions at least. Im surprised of all the UCC players he was the one picked to set up a level, there are much better players there than him.

In short a decent MSL player, not too sure about eL standard.

Lads, there's some terrible gardening punning going on here that has to be stopped, so lets just nip it in the bud now

**tiktok** · 22/07/2003, 5:13 PM

lads...this is a thorny issue and i think we should leaf it to those that know him, although some of them sound like stalkers.

Neil · 22/07/2003, 5:14 PM

He has to play for Tralee for a small while anyway............................................

for the sake of the papers headlines

Neil · 22/07/2003, 5:46 PM

His ma said he was a petal as a young fella..........

**tiktok** · 22/07/2003, 5:56 PM

well i heard he was a-pollen, that he can't shoot to save his life (apparently he's drunk on the field half the time, drinks too much bud-weiser)...although i don't trust the two lips that the rumour stemmed from.
