Niall Donohue
Club: Firies D.O.B. 17/7/99 Height: 5’ 11” Weight: 74kg Minor Debut: Clare 2017 Favourite Venue: Fitzgerald Stadium Favourite Music: Hip Hop Favourite Film: Toy Story Has won two Hogan Cup medals in the The Sem’s defence and picked up an AllIreland minor medal last year. The Firies man has made the no.7 jersey his own this season scoring a point against Louth
Barry Mahony
Club: St. Senans D.O.B. 14/3/1999 Height: 5’ 11’’ Weight: 75kg Minor Debut: Clare 2017 Favourite Venue: Austin Stack Park Favourite Music: Coldplay Favourite Film: Forest Gump One of only two panellist from the Feale Rangers and Shannon Rangers regions, midfielder Mahony has all the attributes for the engine room: power, pace, fielding and ability to push forward to raise a flag
Donal O’Sullivan
Club: Kilgarvan D.O.B. 17/11/2000 Height: 6’ 0’’ Weight: 75kg Minor Debut: Clare 2017 Favourite Venue: Fitzgerald Stadium Favourite Music: Pop Favourite Film: Coach Carter O’Sullivan is just the latest footballer to emerge out of hurling country in Kilgarvan and the 2-5 he scored from play (plus three frees) was just one stand-out moment in a summer of great displays
Diarmuid O’Connor
Club: Na Gaeil D.O.B. 21/04/1999 Height: 6’ 2” Weight: 80kg Minor Debut: v Waterford 2016 Favourite Venue: Austin Stack Park Favourite Music: All Sorts Favourite Film: The Guard Another of the young talent coming from the Tralee club of Na Gaeil, O’Connor follows in the steps of club mate Jack Barry as a powerful midfielder well capable of getting forward for a point or two
David Clifford
Club: Fossa D.O.B. 22/01/1999 Height: 6’ 2” Weight: 86kg Minor Debut: v Waterford 2016 Favourite Venue: Fitzgerald Stadium Favourite Music: Ed Sheeran Favourite Film: Man about Dog Very much the star player of the team, the Fossa man plays with such insouciance it has made him a joy to watch but a nightmare for defenders. If Clifford performs well his team usually wins
Fiachra Clifford
Club: Laune Rangers D.O.B. 29/1/99 Height: 5’ 10” Weight: 78kg Minor Debut: Clare 2017 Favourite Venue: Fitzgerald Stadium Favourite Music: Vicetone Favourite Film: Django Unchained Like all good corner forwards, Clifford keeps the scoreboard keeper busy with his reliable score getting and the Killorglin man can be expected to rise to the occasion on Sunday with a point or two
