There not alot of goalkeeping options in the county. Not alot of possible stand out future county men. Alot of the very good players are not big. There is a very good lad playing No.11 for Castledawson whos he? Wouldn't be the biggest!
I don't get to many club games these days but I'd have though there were some good players coming through from those county minor/u20 sides? We already have a 2nd keeper in Scullion at the senior county level so we're covered there for a while.
Championship is usually competitive enough, 3 teams realistic contenders and 1 or 2 others can always can always win on a given day.
Not that competitive the last couple of years. Glen have cake walked it (although I think you mean apart from them it's fairly competitive)
The result of the last 3 finals.
2021 - Glen 1-13 0-7 Slaughtneil
2022 - Glen 1-12 0-7 Slaughtneil
2023 - Glen 1-13 0-7 Magherafelt
Incredible consistency from Glen when you even look at those 3 score lines. Keeping the opposition to 0-7 in 3 finals in a row.
They had 6 men in the Derry squad at the weekend (Ciaran McFaul, Conor Glass, Emmett Bradley, Ethan Doherty, Eunan Mulholland, Danny McDermott)
Conleith Mcguckin left the panel a few weeks ago & Johnny McGuckain just finishing up with the u20's, he really looks the part too.
Their team is frightening, and then you start to add in other household names Dougan, Warnock, Carville, Tallon, Doherty, Flanagan etc
