Imagine 12 v 11 inside the 65. 4 or 5 attacking players going inside the 20m line to leave a 6v5 or 5v4 in a sweat box from the 65m to 20m line to set up two pointers. This will be the biggest innovation and teams whose keepers bring that extra value.

I am serious.
In your scenario if the keeper is out the field with 3v3 behind him and the opposition turn over the ball, there's a high percentage chance of conceding the goal. 1 on 1 always favours an inside forward imo.

Yea bringing the keeper that far out with a 3v3 in your own half is a huge risk now, will be interesting to see if many teams decide to go with that tactic still.

Yep. It's going to take time for all teams to get the right balance between defence/attack now.
I can't see anyone sending the keeper out especially as they can't receive the ball in their own half of the field.

Could we see rotating keepers to get around that rule? If teams "temporarily" make a positional change and swap the CB and Keeper, can the keeper now receive the ball during open play? Refs really are going to have their work cut out with these new rules.

Anton Tohill back training with the county. Any other new or returning faces?

Derry Optimist

As well as Anton Tohill being recalled to the squad, I believe that Lavey's Conor Mulholland has joined the squad along with fellow Lavey player Rory McGill. Paddy Tally has introduced a lot of younger players to see how they fit into the Senior set up. This includes two goalkeepers, Louis Regan of Lavey and James Gribbin of Newbridge. The latter's clubmate Callum McGrogan is also in the squad. Apparently, the current large squad will be pruned just prior to the commencement of the League. It would also appear that Emmett Bradley has joined Chrissy McKaigue in the intercounty Retirement saloon! Otherwise most of last year's original panel, including Matthew Downey,have returned.
Selecting Derry's defence in the absence of Chrissy McKaigue, and the injuries to Conor McCloskey and Padraig Mc Grogan will present a huge gap in our well-established defensive system. It would now appear that  Eoin McEvoy will be the lynchpin of the Derry defence, supported by Conor Doherty, Gareth McKinless and Diarmuid Baker. Presumably Donncha Gilmore, Shea Downey  Martin Bradley, Patrick McGurk and now Conor Mulholland will all now be
challenging for the other two vacancies before the injured duo return.

I was very impressed with the Newbridge CHB McMullan [I think], he is quite young I think but thought he would have been worth a look, has great positional sense and composure.

Those two goalkeeper selections would suggest the roaming goalkeeper is here to stay in Derry at least.Shocked Peter Stuart hasn't been asked as he's been the best keeper in Derry club football past few years in my opinion and hasn't got a look in

I was as well. Possibly a bit light at the moment but looked like he'd a decent frame to fill into too. Very composed and a strong runner.

He's with the U20's I believe. Was minor (U17) 3 years ago.

Some selections that are living off their fathers names. There's absolutely no way the Downeys deserve to be involved and Tohill might have the physical attributes but football wise is severely lacking. Derry selections as usual are just about keeping certain clubs happy for a new management team.

I'm not sure anyone is trying to keep St Brigid's in Belfast happy.
I would think the more players that the new management can have a look at before the start of the season the better for putting a final panel together. Would be nice if county teams published training squads or at least gave some information out so supporters aren't relying on conjecture.

2020 Liverpool running away with the league and the Féile is coming to Derry, then Covid spoils the party. 2025 Liverpool could be running away with the league and the Féile is coming to Derry...
