Not yet Red will hear soon

Moorefield tonight not Dit in newbridge

Danny o Reilly

Luttrel was brought on later actually didn't get much of the ball

Starters
Brody
Dutchie nerney rory
Donoher collins Crowley
Danny and johno
Alan Farrell Kingston Benny
Dowling Walsh Whelan

Decent game good run out defense under pressure through centre until second
Half when Collins got support numbered wise
Danny under pressure physically and johno mobility wise

Walsh Kingston dutchie nerney improved significantly after sluggish start
Dowling putting hand up big time

Begley Ross Glynn Stephen came in also

Rest of guys got flaked on top pitch....heavy work being done

Big fish in small pond

Very good player but would his attitude cut it in with the big boys...not a chance

I don't think John Sugrue will take a lazy mè fèin attitude that's the vibe I'm getting anyway

UCD Wednesday in Portlaoise(don't know where presume centre of excellence) and DIT Friday(no location so far)

[The first thing he must do regardless is manufacture the return of Mr D Kingston to the Laois Set Up]

This is a quote from John Sugrue's interview and it gives us an insight into the way he is thinking ..

A lot of the most positive fellas so far are the newcomers as far as I’m concerned. They’ve shown a real freshness and a real appetite for this thing and   they really want to play for Laois.

Unfortunately Donie doesn't want to play for Laois so I can't see John running after him. Maybe he thinks Div.4 is beneath him or something but I can't see John making serious efforts to get him to play if he hasn't the heart for it.

The big D doesn't feel like training with the panel
Well my view is it would have a terrible effect on group think if he waltzes back in May shouting at inexperienced guys bursting there gut if a pass wasn't timed correctly

Culture needs to change and I think that's Sugrues real major issue to address

Wednesday and Friday challenges against college s

Very interesting to hear Sugrue on SoundCloud same as the report above

Really seems like he's going to scratch some of the so-called more established guys up to now
And I'm thrilled

Lads I was happy with yesterday Nerney Attride Piggott McEvoy Lowry forbes also Dowling and Murray kept ball alive well with some impact

Content so far actually

Tks Merman

Quite thin guy but showed a bit of skill and pace plus a nice score

Certainly for a supposed mickey mouse Walsh cup game lot of the KK guys hugely up for it 3,8,11,13,14,19 serious operators  standing out

Who was No.26 for Laois came on Late?

Lee Cleere, Eric Killeen in spots and maybe Paddy Purcell

The rest were just not at the races last night...quite frightening the difference in skills,movement,awareness,catching under the high ball

What training has been done in the last 8 weeks? Couldn't see it folks

By all accounts this game was very poor from both sides

I’m looking forward to home return and see who is putting their hand up

Great to see Sugrue trying out guys with potential and motivation

Yes the ship has sailed but maybe sufficient interest to kick on again

Decent work being done underage and there will be a fallow few years

It might sound like I have it in for Mountmellick but a relatively large urban club having to join with a small rural club to play senior football? Mountmellick should concentrate getting up to senior on their own merit.

Ballyfin, a small rural club? Are they not a parish onto themselves?

Mountmellick should be ashamed of themselves for the situation that has developed, and Ballyfin are a testament to how a dual club should be run, but lets not get carried away here. Ballypickas are a small rural club.

Ballyfin deserve credit for Sure ...Mountmellick on the other hand mmmmmm

I can see this working as all the players have played with each other at juv level ...same for Timahoe stradbally barrowhouse and Joes...Can only be good to add to the quality of the senior teams!

Ballyfin are a dual club and they deserve credit but is that a reflection on the quality in Laois
From what I hear Ballyfin will be stuck for numbers over coming years aswell

James finn to Dubai that will have a big impact
