Kildare boss pleads for fans to give Paddy Brophy time to readjust to Gaelic footballer life again
Brophy confirmed last week that he was quitting Australian Rules side West Coast Eagles “for personal reasons, including homesickness”.
The former Kildare attacker was in his third season at the Perth club but had yet to make a first team breakthrough and said he wished to continue his studies in Ireland and rejoin the Kildare squad. It is a major boost to Kildare as the Celbridge man will be expected to feature in their upcoming Championship campaign which begins against Laois or Longford on June 3/4.
