Had his first choice come to pass, Ruaidhrí Fallon would be in MacHale Park today, not Croke Park. Had his first choice come to pass, he would be wearing the green of his province, not the primrose and blue of his county.

22-year-old Fallon started in defence for Roscommon’s final two outings of the League’s second tier. He was twice introduced as a sub during the early rounds before a first start of the year against Meath in late February.
