Yeah unused sub in 2006. Opted out in 2007 ahead of the league along with Mickey OConnell and Wayne Sherlock. Back on the panel then in 2009 and played 1 or 2 league games. As someone else said, fine fullback, just lacked pace.Won a Munster in '06 I'd say as a sub. Don't think he ever played a championship game but not certain, was on panel for 2 or 3 years I think
Millerick is versatile and could play anywhere from 2 to 9. I think a man marking job in defence is how we should use him....bit like Brian Murphy of bride rovers used to do...
On the hurling front, Cork, as has been documented in recent days, begin their Division 1 campaign with a home fixture against three-in-a-row All-Ireland champions Limerick on Saturday evening, February 4.
Cork will have two further home games at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, against Westmeath in Round 3 on Sunday, February 26 and Wexford in Round 4 on Sunday, March 12.
The Westmeath fixture (1pm throw-in) will form part of a double-header along with the footballers’ clash with Ray Dempsey’s Limerick (3pm throw-in).
The Cork hurlers’ two away outings will bring Pat Ryan’s charges to Pearse Stadium on Sunday, February 12 and to Ennis on the final day of Group A action on Sunday, March 19.
Mellerick is too small for a half back. I agree with some posters who suggest he could play as a man marker. He’d probaly want to bulk up a good bit but definitely dosent lack aggression and work rate.

No way is he too small, he's like wire and every bit as tall as Ciaran Joyce.
Was thinking the same thing myself. I was putting it down to "having a bad year" due to injuries & loss of form. In his defence he's been moved around a lot and that can be very unsettling. I think it's a real make or break year for him though.I hate singling out lads but I just wonder am I missing something with Millerick. I just haven’t seen anything much from him the last few years to suggest that he could man mark a big player out of a game.
I know to be fair to him he was played out of position this year and has struggled with injuries but I’m still a bit unsure of him and he seems to struggle against physically strong players. I hope I’m wrong because we really need a man marker.
I think plenty of lads of this standard around the county. He hasn’t done enough to be considered a definite starter on Cork team. Had average club year also.I hate singling out lads but I just wonder am I missing something with Millerick.

Christ, I hate to think what a below average club year would be! Ger is a definite starter for Cork if he's 100% fit.I think plenty of lads of this standard around the county. He hasn’t done enough to be considered a definite starter on Cork team. Had average club year also.
