Stick him on the edge of the square!
Breaffy have given up Aidan O’Shea as part of this year’s Toughest Trade documentary but it looks like they have themselves another ox for the edge of the box.
On Monday we brought you the news that former NFL wide receiver Roberto Wallace is the final participant in this year’s Toughest Trade and the ex-Miami Dolphin seems to be settling in well to life as a Gaelic footballer on the outskirts of Castlebar.
At 6ft 4in and a listed weight of almost 16 stone, Wallace has the size to compete on the GAA field, but footage released by show sponsors AIB shows the American also has an incredible leap and a decent right peg.
Full backs of @MayoGAA beware taking on @BreaffyGAA! @Roberto_Wallace is in town & he means business! #TheToughesthttps://t.co/4BTjRZQO86

We reckon the crossbar is still rattling after that effort.
The pacy Wallace, who completed the 40-yard dash in less than 4.5 seconds as a draft prospect at the NFL Combine, will be lining out for the Breaffy in a challenge match this weekend.
With that pace, that size and that spring… god help the man charged with marking Wallace.
