As Dublin star Diarmuid Connolly looks set to head out to the US for the summer in the coming days, the allure of Gaelic football in Boston is proving extremely attractive, with a host of inter-county and elite club talent basing themselves there this summer.<\/p>\n
Donegal Boston will have two All-Ireland senior club-winning defenders after Dylan Wall was confirmed yesterday as having joined his Corofin team-mate Liam Silke in the Massachusetts city.<\/p>\n
They will be joined by Crossmaglen Rangers and Armagh midfielder Ois\u00edn O\u2019Neill, a 2017 Sigerson Cup winner with St Mary\u2019s College. Miche\u00e1l Carroll, on the Donegal panel earlier this year, will also line up.<\/p>\n
Aidan McAnespies, who are favored to lure Connolly, have already seen five players with inter-county experience transfer to the club, including Robert Piggott, who was on the Laois panel that claimed the Division 4 title.<\/p>\n
Connolly\u2019s Dublin team-mate and St Vincent\u2019s club-mate Shane Carthy, Carlow\u2019s Brendan Murphy, and Laois\u2019s Colm Murphy will also be playing in Boston in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
Other recent Dublin panelists Shane Carthy (Naomh Mearn\u00f3g), Emmet \u00d3 Conghaile, and Ciaran Reddin could also play in Boston.<\/p>\n
Kerry\u2019s 2016 All-Ireland JFC-winning captain Paul O\u2019Donoghue will represent Shannon Gaels alongside Austin Stacks duo David Mannix and Denis McElligott.<\/p>\n
They will join Limerick squad member Brian Fanning and Brian Egan, who debuted for Sligo two years ago.<\/p>\n
The six-team senior championship is one of the most competitive club competitions overseas, with Shannon Blues the reigning champions.<\/p>\n
