The reigning footballer of the year is home and enjoying the football.

Dublin wing-back Jack McCaffrey has taken a year out form inter-county football to volunteer in Africa, where he did his best to keep up on his native county's march to the All-Ireland semi-finals. https://twitter.com/jackmcc93/status/761634085336940544 The medical student from Clontarf returned home this week ahead of the college year and, while he has already ruled out a return to Jim Gavin's squad in 2016, he is keeping a keen eye on the Championship action. No need for GAA Go now, but McCaffrey is less than impressed with one aspect of the RTÉ coverage of Mayo's All-Ireland semi-final clash with Tipperary - namely Marty Morrissey's co-commentator Tommy Carr. https://twitter.com/jackmcc93/status/767382973427621888 He is not the only one to have an issue with the former Dublin player and manager, with his grasp on the rules surrounding the black card coming in for particular attention. https://twitter.com/EdHolton/status/767385432170586112 https://twitter.com/LukeT3_2_1/status/767385378919747584 https://twitter.com/j4tune/status/767385191321104384 https://twitter.com/conor_dev/status/767384776294694912 https://twitter.com/mjoc13/status/767384557779881985 Others focussed on his assessment of Aidan O'Shea's contribution lately. https://twitter.com/KevinBarry15/status/767373635648647168 https://twitter.com/paddyk17/status/767373599212699648 https://twitter.com/moore_tomas/status/767373575762415616 https://twitter.com/IanFeerick/status/767379049526206464
