It looks like we are back on the Irish wagon with a new Category B Rookie signing. The first ever County Offaly player to join the AFL. Playing Gaelic he is known for his intelligence, pace, and two-footed skill, he combines precision passing with the ability to deliver crucial scores

Hopefully he gets to debut in the potato match against Geelong.

Not to be confused with Cillian Burke who is an Irish kid that has been signed by Geelong as a Cat B rookie also…

How do you pronounce that?
“Berk”?

I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw the headline and went reaching straight for offal puns. He’ll never liver it down.

Good luck to the new fella. Seems a strong skilled type. Enough with all the offal jokes already. Please, show some heart

He’s got a cheek to just rock up to Tulla like this.

Like this, free hit really. Has $ cost involved obviously, but we need to find players by all means necessary. Another Connor would be nice.

I’ve always wondered why we didn’t try more Irish talent after McKenna was pretty successful, good to see, it’s a free hit.
