Shane Duffy (Gaelic footballer)
Shane Duffy, not to be confused with the Celtic player, is a Gaelic football player from County Monaghan. He plays for the Ratoath club and used to play at senior level for the Monaghan county team. He was a very important figure in Magheracloone Mitchell's capture of the Monaghan Senior Football Championship in 2004, Ratoath's capture of the Meath and Leinster Intermediate Championship titles in 2015, and in Monaghan's 2005 National Football League Division 2 title.[1][2][3]
Duffy is an experienced goalkeeper,[4] although he has not always been able to hold on to a starting place in the Monaghan team,[2][5][6][7] with competition from players such as Glen Murphy.[8]
Duffy won the 2011 All-Ireland Kick Fada Championship with a 60-metre kick into a strong headwind.[9]
