In contrast, Mayo GAA seen a total of 43 inter-county transfers ahead of the new season. Most transfers like this are mostly concerned with players going to live in a different country for a year or two, before they eventually return to their home club.
Barry O’Connor’s transfer back to Australia was unfortunately one that was expected, completely ruling himself out for a call-up to either of the Wexford squads after a fantastic campaign with St Marrtins. Meanwhile, former Wexford goalkeeper James Lawlor has made a transfer from his home club of Ferns to the same club that Barry is at.
Regarding the football, St Fintans are delighted to see Donal Shanley back on home-soil. The St Fintans clubman, who has returned from Australia, was also part of John Hegarty’s Wexford Senior Football panel last week against Limerick.
