One of the few things I know about Craig Rogers is that in the summer of 2006 he was on a J1 to Chicago and left a public chat up message on the Bebo page of a very attractive girl in my college class who he’d never met, who was also in Chicago on a J1 at the time. It became quite clear they’d never met from the slap down response she gave him.
He was the Simon Zebo of his day, you could say, except with less talent.
He lacks conviction to a enormous level. Outsidr of the last one he kicked away 2 other handy s ores due to technical faults. That last free was a joke. He had no respect for executing the skill. He set up as if he was 35 M out. It was lunacy. He deserves ridicule, maintaining technique at all times is what makes players good. Looking technique is real bottling, it shows there is no process.
ROG was ridiculed for years for missed kicks, but he was always close and always kicked pretty well. There is no defending Cahalane. None.
Even after Cahillane’s miss, the Portlaoise number 9 really should have scored with a left-footed shot. Had plenty of time but appeared to snatch at it and didn’t get close.
He had a handy free 13m out just off centre to equalise in the last minute of a Leinster final.
99 times out of 100 he taps it over. Unfortunately this was the other time. Very unfortunate for the lad but he bottled it, bottled it good and proper. Have to feel sorry for him but he over thought it and his brain was fried as he went up to strike it. His technique just fell apart.
For the sake of the county, it would be super to see Reilly on board in some capacity. But in the cold light of day, that would take a lot of conciliation. From what I hear, it was a lot of ould typical “comm-itt-ee” style cowardly horseshit that got Donnelly back in, people preferring the status quo to going in a different direction. I would have him out for the shop debacle alone, but he won the vote, the only thing to do is move on with gritted teeth.
Many times. And played midfield throughout Laois. The loss of Cotter necessitated him at full back, especially after A 43 year old took the previous wearer for 2 goals in the drawn final.
No Munster team has won the All-Ireland club football championship since 2003, they’ve had no finalist since 2010, and that trend looks set to continue this year.
It’s interesting how the competition has become the almost exclusive preserve of Connacht, Ulster and Dublin teams.
