I see Sean O'Sullivan has been dropped by Kerry yet again for the weekend.

Any time I've seen this fella play, he has done well. He has that rare combination of an eye for a score, an eye for a pass, and a great work ethic.

I know Kerry have a surplus of fine forwards, but I reckon he most be some sort of a fall guy down there. Even if not, he is one hard done by footballer.

Who else fits in this category?

Baiscally anyone who doesn't make the 1st 15 as in their minds, they are good enough and better than the lads that are selected !  ;)

Another Kerry man - the wee fella who for seemingly 5/6 years would start corner forward and score heavily through the league before being dropped for the championship - Declan Quill i think?

Philly Loughran seemed to disappear from the Armagh scene abruptly. Remember he played midfield in the AI FInal in 2003. Anyone know the story with this one?

Maybe a letter to Dromintee would be more helpful.

Never rated him that highly he is just a very big strong man with limited football ability and he got loads of chances with Armagh to nail down a spot and bar 2003 when he had a good season he always looked out of his depth IMO
