Like all fans we will always be biased when it comes to our own so id like to get an outsiders opinion on Berno.Is he as good as we think he is and has he got far to go before he can be classed as a true great of this generation.Would he be in the same class as Mulligan,ONeill,Stevie Mac,Ronan Clarke,the Gooch etc? Or is he another overhyped Dub.Personally i think he can become a modern day great but as a fan its hard to really judge your own lads without being too biased.The 10 euro i put on him to be player of the year is looking good if we can get over Cork. finglas full ba (None) - Posts: 636 - 11/08/2010 19:22:37 743654 Link 0 |
Cooper and McDonnell are a class above everyone in the country in my opinion. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13837 - 11/08/2010 20:08:29 743699 Link 0 |
i think he has the potential to get to the next level,i think he is only 24 so he has a lot of time. finglas full ba (None) - Posts: 636 - 11/08/2010 20:26:16 743714 Link 0 |
Well the thing Brogan has that the other two mentioned there don't is that he's also a big enough man. He's been the outstanding forward of this year's championship at times living off scraps and Kildare would probably have won leinster last year if it wasn't for him so he's definitely not overhyped. He'll have to show consistency over the next 5+ years or so before he can start to be compared with some of the other players you've mentioned though. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 11/08/2010 20:33:20 743720 Link 0 |

I think he was talking about Terry O'Neill from Antrim rather than Pearse... maor_uisce (Tyrone) - Posts: 167 - 11/08/2010 21:04:05 743735 Link 0 |
For me bernard brogan is great player he would be my player of the year already only for him the dubs would be out of the championship.His work rate is excellent he,s strong an can hold the ball to make room for himself to take his point.He,s great off two feet.His movement off the ball is great.Hopefully he can keep this up and then definetely yes he can be called one of the greats of our beloved game...

Put it this way, Dublins hopes of winning Sam this year rests almost entirely on the shoulders of Bernard Brogan, he is that important and that good. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 11/08/2010 21:35:29 743769 Link 0 |

good but by no means the finished artictle, john o brien kept him scoreless from play until last minute against louth. no doubting his ability but don't hype him up for a fall if things go wrong for dubs jim_mal1 (Louth) - Posts: 120 - 11/08/2010 22:02:03 743794 Link 0 |
Like most on here, I would put Gooch out there on his own. BB is in the next level. Looks a seriously class act. Tongo (UK) - Posts: 1795 - 12/08/2010 08:08:41 743801 Link 0 |
He didn't get a sniff off Kevin Reilly v Meath either. Stuck_for_ash (USA) - Posts: 123 - 12/08/2010 08:53:49 743817 Link 0 |
Id have him on par with Paddy Bradley of old - on hid day he is great but has his off days where he goes missing. Derry_ledd (Derry) - Posts: 2093 - 12/08/2010 09:21:46 743835 Link 0 |

In all fairness Bernard Brogan is a very good player that any county team would like to have. Kicks with both feet, physically strong a good fielder of the ball, knows how to pass the ball (unlike his bro.). This season he has been as good as any other forward in the country but to be classed as a superstar he needs to perform at this level for a couple more years on a concistant basis - which I am sure he will do.
