On long-term talent our Rating reads 11. At 30 Kelleher is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.4 reflects that trajectory.

Output in context · Cork City finished 10th of 10 · a relegation-threatened side
2.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 10) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 20.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 10.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
