If this turns out to be true i think we have seen the last of Bernard in a Dublin jersey which is a shame, granted he is a fringe player now i would not be expecting to see much of him over the summer but in his day a fantastic footballer and i wish him a speedy recovery as he deserves better if this is the end of his county career.

Not nice to see any player injured. Good luck to Bernard in his recovery. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11227 - 12/02/2018 10:14:35 2076108 Link 2 |
Terrible news and a big blow for Dublin if its true. You couldn't meet a nicer fella. What strikes you about him is his hunger to play for Dublin, it really is incredible and disarming given his honors already. The timing of it couldn't be worse for him.

A pity if it's true, as he's a class footballer. Ailteoir (Galway) - Posts: 859 - 12/02/2018 11:21:45 2076153 Link 0 |
Seriously good footballer. If his people had stayed in Mayo we would have won two or three All Irelands. Unless we played him at full back which would be a distinct possibility. Hope he makes a comeback as it would be a shame if his career ended prematurely. There are a few corner backs who will sleep a bit easier if it's true!

Probably will end his career - if it does horrible way to end. Wish him well, indeed anyone who suffers this injury. arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4895 - 12/02/2018 12:21:03 2076183 Link 0 |
Awful injury for any player to sustain and at the age Bernard is itvmsjd it all the more difficult. Certainly wish the man a speedy recovery and hope it doesn't signal the end of one hell of an inter county career. Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 12/02/2018 13:11:04 2076208 Link 1 |
Really sorry to hear about Brogan's injury. He put us to the sword manys the time but it would be a sad way to finish for him if that's what happens. Even had both assists for the two goals against us in the league opener. Dublin have plenty of very good forwards to fill in but it's still a horrible injury for the fella. Speedy recovery to him. kildare73 (Kildare) - Posts: 854 - 12/02/2018 13:18:56 2076213 Link 0 |
Thats a pity although I'm not sure he would have been a starter for the Dubs this year. In saying that he has been one of the best footballers in the country over the last 10 years. I wonder will he now decide to call it a day after this? If he does he will be missed. Hopefully he has a speedy recovery. aidan64 (Kerry) - Posts: 665 - 12/02/2018 13:22:07 2076215 Link 0 |
Terrible news for any footballer, all the best to Bernard in his recovery. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 12/02/2018 13:22:15 2076216 Link 0 |
Awful news for Bernard. He has been a terrific player and a great ambassador for the GAA for over 10 years. A sad way for his inter county career to end if it proves to be the case. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9108 - 12/02/2018 13:38:32 2076223 Link 0 |
Terrible news for one of the greats. MuckrossHead (Donegal) - Posts: 5028 - 12/02/2018 13:49:29 2076228 Link 0 |
How old is brogan? I remember when he came on the scene first he had pure raw talent and was awful ratty and I didn't like him at all (nothing new from kingdomboy I hear ye dubs saying) but in fairness to him he settled down under pat gilroy and be became the excellent footballer he is now . I hope we'll see him again next spring but maybe that'll have to do with wheather or not the dubs are on the drive for 5. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 12/02/2018 14:29:56 2076244 Link 0 |
I may be bias but Bernard has been the best forward of this decade, not looking good for the future but he will go down as a legend. realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8584 - 12/02/2018 14:34:30 2076250 Link 2 |
This is probably the last we will see of B Brogan in a Dublin jersey. woops (Kerry) - Posts: 2073 - 12/02/2018 17:06:12 2076331 Link 3 |
Would agree with you there. He definitively IMO has been the best finisher for sure over the last decade, never needs much time to get his shot away in the tightest areas. I always enjoyed his battles against Marc O Se in the years gone by. Always a pleasure to watch when not playing us. Hopefully we haven't seen the last the last of him but at that age it'll be difficult to recover. KY4SAM2015 (Kerry) - Posts: 898 - 12/02/2018 17:29:57 2076339 Link 1 |
