Mayo players still think he’s Australia bound as of today. His partner has also been all over socials talking about covid and iso so I assume he’s been effected by that as well.
After breakthrough with club, Kevin McLoughlin eyes top prize with Mayo
A few months on from another All-Ireland final defeat, this time to Tyrone, it's hard for neutrals to be overly optimistic about 2022 but McLoughlin is clinging to his dream.www.irishexaminer.com
He is supposed to be here for the first week back of training for this year. Anyone know when they hit the track again? Monday?Shouldn't he be getting his arse over here and start training soon?
Michael Collins didn't die just so players could get properly paidThats perverse If players are paid its not amateur. Under the table means it's a rort or a tactical advantage. It sounds like a basketball movie I watched years ago..when the player got paid to turn on the automatic sprinklers. Is attendance at the game is free entry as well. If under the table payments are rife then they are in denial.

But but marty and his butter chicken.Reckon they'd know more than most about what Mullin is doing/thinking. Just seems like nothing more than pointed gossip, the rumours about him not coming.
You expect him to say "yeah it was an easy decision"?James Horan, Mayo manager (Head coach) was asked yesterday about Mullin after their pre season match against Galway. He’s notoriously full of disdain for the media in general and never gives much away, but he said “it’s a tough one for him and his family” that was the exact answer that I heard in the radio.
Make of that what you will I guess..
Think you are missing my point. He was talking in the present tense. If the decision was made you’d imagine James Horan would just have said “yeah he’s going to be a loss but we will move on without him” etc etc.You expect him to say "yeah it was an easy decision"?
It's also basically the same way cats people talked about GAJ leaving for the Suns 10 years ago. No one wanted to say it despite it being trueThink you are missing my point. He was talking in the present tense. If the decision was made you’d imagine James Horan would just have said “yeah he’s going to be a loss but we will move on without him” etc etc.
It indicates there is still some uncertainty about this that’s all. I’m only the messenger relaying what I heard!
Well now is about the time he's due so looks like he really might be stayingDoubts over Mullin’s AFL move raise Mayo hopes of keeping star

Todays Irish independent. Clearly there is some personal issue at play here. Could be a family issue or something like that.
This is nonsense. There’s no “outright threats” or anything of the sort. Plenty of players in Gaa leave county panels for all sorts of reasons. Who on earth would want to keep someone in an elite sporting environment against their will anyway, easpecially one where they don’t get paid.I wouldn't doubt it if there were some powerful local interests putting some pressure on him. Either guilt tripping him, offering more financially/job, or outright threats.
Or it could be from within the family. Really tough situation to be in for a young guy.
Or it just could be covid related.
Yeah. He's missed enough of the preseason to suggest he won't be playing much of a part in 2022 anyway. Give him the time and space he needs if there's family reasons behind him not getting his ass to Mars.. I mean Mooroobool St.. straight away.Well now is about the time he's due so looks like he really might be staying
merely speculation, for various anglesThis is nonsense. There’s no “outright threats” or anything of the sort. Plenty of players in Gaa leave county panels for all sorts of reasons. Who on earth would want to keep someone in an elite sporting environment against their will anyway, easpecially one where they don’t get paid.
I reckon it’s unfortunately some kind of personal family issue that’s holding him from coming over and I’m not going to speculate any more than that. Hopefully it gets resolved and if he ends up coming to the afl then I wish him the very best of luck.
Might not want to leave his girlfriend? Been together for 5 years it seems.Or it could be from within the family. Really tough situation to be in for a young guy.
Could be but given the reports are about his family I'm thinking he might have a critically ill relativeMight not want to leave his girlfriend? Been together for 5 years it seems.
That article appears to be at least a month old. Interestingly, there is a current article of some little interest to us, https://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid-40778649.html I hope he has a great debut.
GFC still have Oisin listed on website ......Guernsey 34.View attachment 1310014
Looks like he learned a thing or two whilst in Geelong anyway. These are NAB cup type preseason games, so nothing to gauge him on.
As for Mullin, it does look unusual to be so late leaving. Super player, similar mould to O Connor with good hard running and a good kick.
