He played U21 for Kerry ; not sure if he played minor.

Dont really know enough to assess his chances of making an impact as regards senior properly. I don't think it would have been anytime soon anyway. Maybe down the line when our current midfield crop have moved on.

Maybe in 2 years time if his contract isnt renewed and having had the advantage of being a full-time professional, he might be a possibility - or he could marry an Aussie bird and never kick a [proper] football again.
