He certainly has an eye for a pass, point or goal. He needs to tidy up his general play and work harder in many aspects but in the league we are in, he can be more than useful.
But this is like a trend with Cork. The strong and athletic guys can’t kick it and the good kickers aren’t strong or athletic enough. One a bare few meet all the criteria for a top player.
Yes it probably was first outing in a while after being knocked out early with Nemo. That one spectacular pass is what makes the difference in games thoughabout 1 in 5 come off though, and when it does it's spectacular.
some of Saturday's stuff was abject - now maybe he's rusty and all.

If the alternative is someone who is powerful but has no eye for a pass or doesn’t have the skill to pull off a good pass then I’m not sure I want that.about 1 in 5 come off though, and when it does it's spectacular.

Connolly is a more than useful player to have on the panel. He won’t be required every game but I’m sick of looking at big lads running around and going backwards with handpasses.
All forwards should be able to kick a ball it’s a joke that there is still players out there in the forward line who can’t. O’Donovan and O’Callaghan both in the forward line on Saturday was a joke. O’Donovan is a brilliant player but not as a forward he is a wing backIf the alternative is someone who is powerful but has no eye for a pass or doesn’t have the skill to pull off a good pass then I’m not sure I want that.

You don’t get extra points for aesthetics unfortunately. Every second pass or shot with Connolly is a Hail Mary. That kind of wastefulness is a killer at inter county level.Yes it probably was first outing in a while after being knocked out early with Nemo.
