Derrygonnelly Harps defender Denis Greene answers our questions tonight.

The 21 year old played for Fermanagh Minors in 2012 & U21s in 2015.

The 3rd Year Queens University Pharmacy student admits winning the double with Derrygonnelly Harps in 2015 was incredible but the loss of his Youth manager Damian McGovern was tough on him and his clubmates.

Name: Denis Greene

Date of birth: 03/11/1994

Position: Wing half back

Sporting hero: I wouldn’t say hero but I admire Jack McCaffrey of Dublin for his speed and attacking style of play at wing half back.

Favourite musician: Fond of Irish band walking on cars at the minute.

Favourite food: Southern fried chicken wrap with southwest sauce from the spar deli in the lands is the ticket.

Proudest moment: Winning Senior Championship with Derrygonnelly for Damian McGovern and the Parish.

Biggest achievement: Probably the double this year or non-gaa related; winning the Junior All-Ireland Cross-Country with my school – St.Michaels Enniskillen.

Toughest opponents: Any man with speed, never liked marking Tommy McCaffery of Erne Gaels.

Favourite song: Portugal the man: Modern Jesus

Pre-match ritual: Tough job deciding what boots to wear, then tape up all staved, sprained or crooked fingers and the finally bit of vics up the nose clear the airways.

Best player played with: Kevin Cassidy of Derrygonnelly is the complete package

Favourite movie: Wolf of Wall Street, plenty happening.

Favourite actor: Ciaran Corrigan of Maguiresbridge could always win a free very handy at underage, wouldn’t say much as changed.

Favourite actress: Any pretty face at all

Favourite TV programme: Suits

Biggest influence on your career: Have to say Francie Shaw with emphasis on personal fitness and all Derrygonnelly underage coaches, Damian McGovern in particular in my last year at Minor level and Brendan Rasdale has been about a lot.

Ambition for 2016: Retain Senior league and Championship titles and get a victory in the Ulster club SFC. Wouldn’t mind hitting the gym and getting massive either.
