        Another thing I am excited about. I love watching the International Rules games. Each year my eldest daughter(a West Coast Eagles Supporter) and I sit up and watch these games. It has been great to see the skills and tactics evolve over such a short time. It really shows up those players who aren't thinkers such as the year Woewodin played(and Richo of course). Hird stands out like a beacon.
        Kirk, Crouch, Barry and Hall showed how good they were last year to people such as Garry Lyon. It was a real indicator to others in the know as to why Roosy was able to be so successful in his first year. He had a team of players who weren't complete and utter nobheads.
        I love the speed of the game and the look on the Irish faces when they are tackled.(Mind you the tables were turned in one game when one Aussie got off the deck to see who on earth had just tackled him and there was Tadgh looking at him)

            Does anyone know if the Irish team has been named yet? I am keen to see if Tadhg's brother gets a run.
            I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
            We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

              Hopefully this will silence those RWOers who just a few weeks ago were throwing Craig Boltons name up for trading. I hope those involved in such decisions at the club aren't so short sighted.

                    O'Keefe should have got a run, imo.

                      Five? Hall, Barry, Crouch, Kirk. Who was the fifth?

                      And before you claim Kennelly, he was injured last year and so didn't take part.

                        i am very wrong and youre quite correct. however, my point still stands that IIRC we were the most represented and in response to Will Sangster that some boys get a run this time we've had a strong representation in the past

                          To clarify myself there were no swans players in the squad last time the series was played in Ireland

                          I had the opportunity to meet the players while they were over here but unfortunately none of our boys played

                            Does anyone know if the Irish team has been named yet? I am keen to see if Tadhg's brother gets a run.

                            Provisional panel was announced at the start of September. Avaliable on the GAA website http://www.gaa.ie/page/coca_cola_int...es_series.html Unfortunately, Noel Kennelly isn't named. Kerry had the highest representation of any county, though.

                            O hAilp?n is though, which is interesting. I guess Carlton fans can't lose either. At least during the international rules.

                            May I take this opportunity to say:
                            GO IRELAND!!!!


                            Happy off-season,

                              Doubt Noel would get a gig, he didn't make Kerry's victorious all ireland team on the weekend
