Just a quick point high fielder you say we have the best man for the job in John surgu but we need to come up with a defensive plan??.. am I missing something.??is it not his job to come up with it the plan and to put lads in place to carry this out ?or am I totally missing this point because I expect John and his crew to do what you say or else it's no different because at the minute we have played the worst teams in Ireland and have two more to come you can dress it up anyway you like div 4 is terrible woeful in terms of any quality and to date we have beaten absolutely shocking teams

You talk some shite all the same.

He does! Where is he from?

Did ye not make an agreement last year to ignore this fella
The irony is not lost on me mentioning it

And as regards u calling me not arsed going to London well what was their to be gained from going? It was very poor according to reports .

Supporting the players was what was to be gained

Yep flying out saturday at 2pm looking forward to it.

Good to see the lads back at it this morning in portlaoise college. Look like a happy crew.
May it continue

Have no fear the London game is going ahead as planned. We can't play the 17/18th as the only teams we havent played Antrim/carlow are playing each other.
Pushing the league final a week to follow suit with the NHL will likely happen

Played well fitness was showing lots of faces got game time
No goals conceded free count was down.
Job done players were happy morale looks high.
Very easy to voice negatives than positives enough of that done here over the years lets enjoy the victories for a change

One change. Donoher for O'Reilly.
Harsh on O'Reilly. I'd have gone with Donoher for Farrell.

Anyone else? Was Lowry not on the panel in 2017, when UCD lost?

He is a spoofer just like the man who selected him Lawrence phealen.
Reliable source has told me he made a show of himself with a self indulgent speech in front of the football panel after the west Meath "challenge matches"..
Shocking appointment

100% heard it's being ratified tommorrow night by shaggy and co

Billy  o lochlin

Donnie is part of a strong bench along with Begley Lillis o munnely Donoher Carroll Mecevoy x2 Dillon Jaime farrel. Lots of injuries so id imagine he is fit player 26.
Best of luck to all involved great to see this many debuts its a statement of intent. Plus alot of experience on the bench to settle things if needed

Forbes still involved and Healy has made no decisions yet . The dual option has been touted ..

Forbes is 100% gone

Is Colm Murphy still on the panel?

Played under 21 with a cast id imagine he is in recovery mode. Heard he was doing laps a few weeks ago in OMP

Heard about Forbes. Not sure about moore but looking at it might not be a bad thing letting him play club and toughen up feed him the conditioning plans come back next year bit bigger and a bit of grit from club as he will be undoubtedly be man marked and targeted .
