    If he does, he must have decided that playing AFL for one more season would put his body at too much risk of a career-ending injury, and kill off forever his ambition to return home and play Gaelic football.

He apparently feels his body isnt up to it to go around another year in the AFL.
      If this is true, and it is only on SEN at this stage, then that is a piss weak effort by Tadhg. He would have known that at the end of last season.

        So you're his doctor now ?

        I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision for Tadhg, I thank him for his immense contribution to the club and wish him all his best in his Gaelic football exploits.

        His retirement does leave another big hole in the squad though, with Coney gone AWOL and Fosdike also retired.

            I wouldnt put blame on tadgh. He has been an excellent clubman. Swans player management are the ones who need a kick up the bum for not taking extra rookies to cover all these losses.

            Anyway, if this is true it will just give another young guy a chance like everyone seems to want.

              He is a big hole to fill in your half back line, even as unfit/injured as he was in the last part of the season...... will be missed as he has given you so much drive from across the midfield.

              Good luck in Ireland mate.....

                      There's a coup at the Swans? No wonder players are leaving.

                              I bet the board won't complain. Theyll save a lot of money.

                                V strange.
                                Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                                Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
