Darragh Roche

Position: D R
Picture
An effervescent personality on and off the pitch, the former Pegasus man initially joined the club in 2012 and played as winger in a very strong seconds team under Paddy Hughes, before making his first team debut away at Portlaoise.

​Nowadays a quick and energetic fullback, Darragh returned to Seaford for a brief spell in 2016 before making a full-time comeback in late 2018, coming off the bench for the Premiers in their win at Parkvale and going on to become a regular in Eoin Dunne's side during their strong late-season run. 

The 2019/20 season saw Darragh end a seven-year goal drought with a strike away at DAA before his strong form earned him a call-up to the Majors team following the COVID pandemic, and putting in a series of impressive performances during the promotion run-in..

But it was in 2021/22 when Darragh really made his name at the club, establishing himself as one of the Majors' key ,men - rock solid in defence and relentlessly vigorous in attack - and it was only fitting that he score the most dramatic goal of the campaign, sparking jubilation with his 96th minute equaliser against Ballymun United.

Early in the 2022/23 season, he was a clutch hero once again, producing a magnificent 94th minute assist to help rescue a draw away at Railway Union.
