I think you can have poor performances during the course of a year and still ultimately, you know, make the shortlist.

I'd have voted for Troy.

Yeah.

Over Rory?

This year, yeah.

But that's my wheelhouse.

And the reaction of the country and the video montages of pubs and airports and scenes up and down the country.

But Troy Parrott brings Seamus Coleman back into the fray.

We would have probably been saying goodbye to Seamus Coleman if Troy hadn't nudged the ball beyond the Hungarian keeper.

You know, Troy has given us more to come.

For us or for himself?

Come on now.

It depends on what your wheelhouse is.

I'm not being patriotic here.

I'm saying it's an individual sport and I think I'm going to get much more enjoyment out of the playoffs and potentially a World Cup next year.

I really enjoyed the golf and I sat and I watched it and I embraced it all but I do think there's more for me in what the Irish team managed to do.
