Conor McKeon

But he was like a fly half.

He kicked a winning drop goal in the World Cup.

You know, he was gorgeous.

Like he was all the things that you want.

And it didn't sort of resonate in any sort of international level.

I think Eddie Hearn is...

taking the Conor Benn thing a little bit too to heart and he's starting to run out of people for his stable it's a bit like the conversation we had in here with Ronan a couple of weeks back as to why Eddie Hearn all of a sudden woke up one morning and decided he absolutely had to get the Katie Taylor fight into Crowe Park well like his stable is after getting significantly smaller in recent weeks so he has to branch out somewhere

I am now.

Yeah, because I remember around the time all the kickers were going over and I was trying to get to the bottom of it.

And obviously there was that situation where you can have in the NFL, you can have...

one international player who doesn't count towards the number of players on your roster and kickers would seem to be the most transferable skill and you know the talk was well you know you're not going to get too many sort of linebackers people who are built like that knocking around playing GAA or wherever you want to go but this literally seems to be somebody who's tailor made to play the position yeah literally it was like a three second video clip and now he's getting a college scholarship and going to America next year has never actually played American football but we wish him well it'll be interesting what to follow and

Yeah, I didn't... You didn't hate it?

Yeah, no, that's exactly what it is.

I was fascinated to find out just what Donegal would do differently because they were faced with this.

It's a brilliant opportunity for them, whether they wanted to get to a league final or not, they were getting Kerry and Crowe Park.

So let's see how much we've changed.

And there was so much focus on last year's final and the tactical aspect of it.

You know, what would they do with Paddy Clifford?

Now, Paddy Clifford wasn't there, but it doesn't really matter.

It's the ball carrier.
