Munster showing contempt for Railway Cup. Ger O'Sullivan whom I never heard off is managing the team and calls up Tommy Welsh who was dropped from Kerry team. I hope Waterford, Limerick and Clare players get the call.

CONNACHT: Damien Comer, Danny Cummins, Fiontán Ó Curraoin, Gareth Bradshaw, Gary O'Donnell, Gary Sice, Liam Silke, Paul Conroy, Paul Varley (all Galway), Cathal Shine, Ciaráin Murtagh, Darren O'Malley, Diarmuid Murtagh, Neil Collins, Sean McDermott (all Roscommon), Chris Barrett, Captain, Conor O'Shea, Jason Doherty, Neil Douglas (Mayo), Eoin Flanagan, Kevin McDonnell, Pat Hughes (all Sligo), Kevin Conlon (Leitrim).

Connacht panel that was selected for last years cancelled game. You could say Mayo showed contempt also by allowing only 4 players play this competition and two O Shea,Douglas shouldn't be selected on Connacht panel when they haven't established themselves as county footballers.

Ger O'Sullivan was assistant to Conor Counihan when Cork won the All Ireland in 2010. Would be a lot better if an actual county manager or former manager was in charge alright.

As for players, can only speak for Kerry, but lot of players still involve in club activity (our divisional championships are still ongoing plus Kenmare and Crokes won Munster club titles last Sunday, Darran O'Sullivan playing Junior final this Subday), quite a few players went on the Allstar trip and prob couldn't be taking any more time off to commit/train etc. A lot of the rest are injured. A few more could commit maybe but it's a tough sell these days.

 Says on Hoganstand ,Kerry are in New York on a pre arranged fundraiser the weekend of the Railway cup. Aidan O Mahony is part of the Munster panel though. Michael Quinlivan and Gary Brennan also.

Apparently Connacht have pulled out of this for 2017, bit odd to make a unilateral decision like that

If 14 or 15 Counties can pull out of the JFC..........

I bet it wasn't the players themselves who pulled out though.

First decision JP has made that has universal support outside Mayo.

GAA website has Semi Finals down for 9th December . Connacht v Munster and Leinster v Munster.
So Ulster not allowed to take part, Connacht not taking  part and Munster split in 2...........
