  • Coach comment:
    A very talented Left sided defender who can play either as a Central Defender or in the left back position as he shows a lot of composure on the ball playing from the back and can also be an attacking threat coming forward from deeper positions. Played high level College football with UCD and has really showed that when it comes to defending, he can put his body on the line not to get beat. Has a really good positive attitude and huge belief in his ability that makes him have really good leadership qualities and communication skills to really get the best out of his teammates. With his versatility and balance in the back line, Shane will be a very good addition to a highly competitive program.
