Quick Facts
Biography
Adrian Hanlon is an Irish sportsperson. He plays Gaelic football with his local club An Clochán Liath and is a member of the Donegal senior inter-county team.
John Joe Doherty first invited Hanlon, a forward, to join the Donegal senior squad in 2009. That year he replaced Colm McFadden on McFadden's 100th Championship appearance, which led to some controversy. Later that year he made a substitute appearance in the Championship defeat to Cork at Croke Park, scoring a point.
Hanlon broke into the senior Donegal team during the 2011 National Football League and started the division 2 final against Laois. Donegal recorded victory, despite Adrian being sent off in the second half. He also played for Donegal in that year's championship opener against Antrim. Later dropped over a breach of discipline, Hanlon has since been included in senior Donegal squads again and was an unused substitute in the 2012 All Ireland victory over Mayo.
