Declan Rooney
Declan Rooney (born 1983/1984) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who played in the 2010 All-Ireland Final. He is a defender.[1]
A Burren stalwart, he won a Down Senior Football Championship medal in 2010 when his club won that competition for the first since 1997.[2] He won another in 2018, after turning 34 (he missed the 2011 county championship because of going over on his ankle).[2] His carpentry work brought him to Dublin, and in 2013 he joined the St Sylvester's club; while there he was nursing a shoulder injury but held Dublin senior player Diarmuid Connolly scoreless when he made a substitute appearance at half-time against St Vincents in a Dublin Senior Football Championship quarter-final, Vincents winning the game by a point and later lifting the 2013–14 All-Ireland (Andy Merrigan Cup) title.[3]
