He's a cousin of one of Ireland's all time GREAT rugby union forwards and captains, Paul O'Connell .. let's hope that tenacity, indomitable will to win, great physical strength, bloody mindedness, calmness under pressure allied to a smooth personality, intelligence and eloquence is a family trait .. welcome Eoghan, (and how is that forename pronounced ? )
Its pronounced the same way as Owen. Very straightforward.
His first name is commonly pronounced ‘Owen’ which apparently means young fighter. From County Cork which is also where the Irish Olympic Rowing gold medalists come from, and also my late mother who came from Rath Luric. Cork is quite a singular county with a stunning coastline and an important dairy industry inland. Some parts are pretty remote, other parts are very beautiful indeed. Eoghan will have grown up in a nice place, in a country with hardly any class system or sense of deference, and a county where people can be fiesty and assertive and in my experience bow the knee to nobody. I hope he is a good player and a winner because I like him already. Blarney Castle is in County Cork.

We’re not called the Rebel County for nothing. My mates daughter has just won a bronze at the World Rowing championships for Ireland. The rowers coming out of Skibbereen are awesome 🤩

My cousin's son plays top flight premiership rugby and has been capped at England youth levels so far.
I like to believe I leverage a tenacious and rugged approach to my daily Regulatory Compliance job as a result.
I imagine all your colleagues call you a rucking flanker

Looked up Baltimore, Ireland on Google maps - bloody hell you are right down the southern end of the island of Ireland - looks pretty remote - I bet when the Atlantic gets a good storm up, the weather is pretty racy for you
Sounds like a decent signing and potential captain material? I'm loving the confusion on how to pronounce his name too....my boy is called Odhran, so we're used to people's general confusion 🤣😂 COYA
O'Connell Whooooahhhh, O'Connell Whooooahhhh, He loves to boss the game, We love to sing his name, O'Connell Whooooaahhh, O'Connell Whooooahhhh, He loves to boss the game, We love to sing his name REPEAT

Anybody reckon he'll be coming in as captain? We seem to be shaking things up so I think we might.
Will be interesting to see if a new look defence makes McGillivray look any better. If Eggs O'Connell can get the defence drilled and organized it might help McG get a bit more decisive.
Not that it excuses McGillivray for a pretty poor season last time out but playing behind a rotating cast of crocks, pensioners and converted midfielders certainly won't have helped his cause.

'Con' as in the artists Southall & Co

I'll get my coat and sneak out the side door.
Nowhere he'd rather play

You can't get the ball away from him

Oh when the goals
Stop flying in
Oh when the goals stop flying in
It's because of O'Connell
That the goals stop flying in.
MK Dons and us both had O'Connell and Tucker on their wish-lists.
Tucker signs for MK Dons, we get O'Connell.
Thank you.
