Eire Og in Carlow too...win numerous Leinster titles but couldn't push on.

Other than Kilcoo, Scotstown and possibly Cross there's not a whole lot in Ulster to seriously challenge them so they may well be back.

Ulster Hurling and Camogie champions again. Would be some achievement if they could retain the football title too. I wouldn't bet against it though.

This run Slaughtneil are on really is incredible. They've been on the road now for a long time without much of a break, and a good few of them dual players to boot. Collectively they've some fire in the bellies.

Unless they're all IC players it's hard to make out they haven't had a break.

Why bother making a comment like that.  He was just pointing up that they are high achievers.  Derry clubs dont win hurling titles.  They did back to back and a big proportion of that team excel at football as well.

At this juncture, I would just like to point that you do not have a clue.

Intercounty I would hazard a guess

I have huge respect for what Slaughtneil have done. I don't know who wouldn't. But it's wrong to say they've had no break, realistically only McKaigue and the like have went without much of a break and even then Derry didn't exactly have that long of a summer. Their achievements stand high enough to be worthy of praise without adding unrealistic relish to it.

They started training for the 2016 season in January 2016. It finished in March 2017, at which point they would have  continued training for the 2017 season, which is still ongoing. Providing they win Ulster, that will be two years.
