Aidan O'Shea's American football training is not going as well as you would expect

Catching an oval ball is clearly very different to plucking a size 5 O’Neills out of the sky.

MAYO FOOTBALLER AIDAN O’Shea is currently stateside to try his hand at American Football as part of AIB’s ‘The Toughest Trade’ programme.

The All star is spending the week in America in a swap-deal with former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Roberto Wallace.

Wallace captained Breaffy to victory in a local challenge game over the weekend but on this evidence, it appears O’Shea isn’t enjoying as much success across the Atlantic.
