Eamon O’Carroll
I’ve loved my time here and I will miss the club. I’ve made some fantastic memories and made friends for life. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity to have worked with the Dragons

Steve McNamara, Catalans Dragons Headcoach
Eamon has made a huge impression and played a major contribution in his two seasons here at the Dragons. He is very popular and respected by everybody at the club. He has worked tirelessly under an extremely difficult situation given Covid and his young family having to go back to the UK. Our loss is certainly Newcastle Thunder gain and I really look forward to seeing him progress as a young Headcoach.
