Shamus O'Connell

[TDK]

Does anyone remember or know of a Shamus O'Connell (not 100% sure if the spelling is correct) that played for the Dragons many years ago (not sure when).

I have a meeting with this guy tomorrow and i was told that he used to play for the dragons.

Seamus O'Connell actually.
Played with:
Easts (1983-84), 16 first grade games
Illawarra (1985-86) 15 first grade games
St George (1987-88 ) 17 first grade games + 2 as replacement.
Scored 2 first grade career tries.

Denis, do you know what position he played?

No, there's a limit to the amount of irrelevant information I can store. But seeing as he only scored 2 tries in his entire first grade career I'd hazard a guess that he was a prop forward or some such.

TDK: He won the wooden spoon with Illawarra in 85 so if the meeting doesn't go well be sure to remind him of it.

Don't you worry, that will be the first thing that comes out of my mouth if he misbehaves ;-)

Also, thanks for all the info guys, i really appreciate it.

According to this: http://www.concreteboots.com/props.htm
he was a prop.
There's even a pic there.

TDK, if you remember to ask, find out if he'd like to add anything to his profile at this website:

Thanks in advance and cheers.
