On South East Radio?! Seriously though he's got potential, played underage for the county, nice to see him starting to get on the pitch for your Senior team off the bench last year. He won SETU Carlow's hurler of the year at the end of last season.

I had seen about this Corcoran lad last year up in Carlow that he got hurler of the year,seen on social media,was wondering why he wasnt hurling with the harriers?? I was informed he that he got sports person of the year not hurler?? Was told he was average enough?? Havnt heard much more about him maybe a late developer?? Dundon at wing forward strange one?? Thought he might be a wexford hurler as a back??

Thought Dundon at wing forward was strange myself. He was an excellent back with the 20s. Is he with the seniors at all at the moment? Couldnt believe the size of him gone he looks like he's put a huge amount of work in the gym

Dundon might solve a problem for us as regards ball winning forwards down the line. Agree he's unlikely to be a big scorer, but then you never know. He scored a point from midfield for his club in their SF last year. Simon Roches shooting is improving game on game, and he was a back too.
Corcoran was hurler of the year in 2023/24, my mistake on the year, but definitely hurler of the year, not sportsperson of the year. Got his award off Cheddar Plunkett in April of that year. Started Freshers at wingback, and did so well he made their Fitzgibbon starting team at cornerback. Not too many lads go from Freshers to Fitzgibbon in the same year. He was captain of SETU Carlow for a game or 2 before last Xmas, playing midfield, think Dundon was injured.

To be honest I think we'd need him more as a forward than a back.

Corcoran was part of the harriers senior panel last year but mainly sub appearances.

Similar with the young brown lad who was on the county under 19 development panel
