[edit] Playing career
Eoin Brosnan has won the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship title with Kerry on three occasions in 2004, 2006 and 2007. The 2004 and 2006 finals were played against Mayo, while the 2007 final was against Cork Cork. In the 2006 tie, the six foot three inches man came on as a substitute in place of Tomás Ó Sé against Mayo and scored a total of 1-01 in the game. In the 2007 game he scored one point and set up another, but it was his defensive qualities that shone through keeping his opposite number, the previously influential Noel O' Leary, very quiet and having two impressive block-downs. 2004 and 2006 proved to be lucky years for Brosnan as he also won two National Football League titles in the same years. He has brought his club Dr. Crokes to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship final which they then lost after a replay. He scored a vital goal in the replayed semi-final match.
