I don't think so. Buying the type of player Connacht need to push on to the next level requires a large cost they can't pay at the moment. Especially with the building costs for the stadium finally starting.by king
Sunshine, that's a bit pessimistic, Burke has been great, duggan is decent in set piece and has youth on his side. Buckley is 31 not old for a prop, should have a year or two.
With Jennings, Forde, Dylan tm and winger can't think of his name pushing up from academy that should be relatively low cost contracts plus Arnold, Dillane, papilii, fafita and maybe a few more moving on we should be able to target a new signing or two.
What about Ed Byrne, Vakh Abladze and Martin Maloney with a short term cover option for Mick Kearney
TBF I think Milne would be someone Connacht would target rather than Dooley. Milne has links with the Connacht branch and nearly went into their academy. They could easily keep tabs on him and make him an offer if things have stalled at Leinster especially if Dooley isn't going anywhere.by wixfjord
The most obvious inter provincial transfer of all time is surely Peter Dooley to Connacht?
Clearly good enough to cement that #1 jersey, now fourth choice LH at Leinster with Milne / Boyle coming behind.
