Our erstwhile hurling captain and party-going regular unfortunately has had to leave our sandy shores for the big smoke of Germany. A stalwart and essential member of the club he will be missed...this little compilation should remind us of what he brought to Abu Dhabi!!
The famous togs...though these will never surpass the Monaghan yokes

His prowess on the dance floor was second to..well everyone actually, as many a woman with a dislocated shoulder will testify!

Warning: DO NOT Jive with this man
The famous Monaghan swallow!
And of course, always the life and soul of any party
Always a man of his word, this was photographed at his going away night when we presented him with a hurl signed by all the team members...of course that was in January...Dessie being Dessie he only managed to actually leave in September!
