Well, I vaguely remember Guthrie and Tuohy were pretty hairy....... Didn't even know Pussies had names. Can you name them yourself or do you have to wait until you are introduced?

This hurts Geelong, they had huge wraps on this boy. Had him slated as someone who could be a best 22 this year.And it continues…
Geelongs Irish recruit, Cat B rookie, 21 yr old Oisin Mullin, has quit on his desire to play AFL. It’s getting worse, this one never even came to Australia! Quit before he got here.

How they ever got that through way back in the dim dark ages beggars belief. To this day still it's an amazing entendre.The only named pussie I know of - is the Galore one

We should ask Ivan and Noah if they have any cousins from the old country that are interested in b catagory rookie position.
The Balkan area punches way above its weight when it comes to sports.
Australia's standard of living is far higher than that area so moving to Australia and have family around would be a plus.

Good luck to the lads. I hope they all find clubs and make a go of it.“ESSENDON, Richmond, Geelong and Hawthorn will host the four Irish prospects for trials this week ahead of their testing at the AFL Draft Combine.
The AFL has brought out four talents – James McLaughlin, Eoin McElholm, Odran Murdock and Conor Corbett – to trial at clubs and also take part in the three-day Combine later this week.
The players were at the Bombers on Monday, with trials also to take place at the Tigers, Cats and Hawks through the week before the Combine commences on Friday at the Melbourne Park and MCG precinct.
Corbett is a 192cm star at Gaelic level, while McLaughlin is a sports all-rounder having played basketball, soccer, golf and Gaelic rules. McElholm is renowned for his speed, while Murdock is the standout player from his county, with all chasing an AFL contract.
The AFL's venture back into the Irish scene has seen Carlton sign two players – Rob Monahan and Matt Duffy – as category B rookies already, while St Kilda listed Liam O’Connell recently as well.
It also follows the AFL Grand Final, where Irishman Conor McKenna played for the Lions and American Mason Cox became a premiership player with Collingwood.“
Good luck to the lads. I hope they all find clubs and make a go of it.
I was 10 years old when we immigrated to Australia so the go home factor was never an issue for me growing up. But I can understand how difficult it must be for young men to do so.
If I'm totally honest it's only now that I'm an old fart that I long for the mother country, even though I have no real memories of the place. Might be the beginnings of dementia who knows.
I read somewhere they went home about a week ago. They were only out for a week or so. Also read we were going to rerookie Mate so who knows.Do we know if the 4 Irish boys trained this week and whether we were impressed.
In this regard can’t see Mate staying on the list.
Racist.Hawthorn have delisted their Cat B rookie Irishman Fionn O’Hara. Yet another failure of the “Irish experiment “. It’s a farce.
