i notice that from the panel listed, to my knowledge there is no players listed who are eligible for the u21 team this year whi is also run in the early part of the year. from this i would imagine that the door for the likes of k o'rourke, etc is still open and these lads will join the panel if and when armagh's interest in the u21 championships is finished

Stefan Forker is def eligible for U21, Michael O'Rourke is as well I think.

Maybe he just wants to keep fit, He'll still be playing club football anyway.

Shocked that Kevin O'Rourke didn't make the panel

If they miss the closing date thats their problem!

Where will Ciaran Toner fit in when (if) he gets back from Austrailia?

I would put Toner ahead of Lavery as well though, seen him a right rew times last year and he was great.  Although I dont know when he's coming back from Austrailia or where he'll be playing.

As far as I know the draw is next Monday night (21st)

I dont think Ulster teams (apart from the Universities) are worried about playing top class football at this stage, as shown by the likes of Armagh and Tyrone fielding very under strength teams.

he plays for Clan a Gael

Any word on what way they lined up?

I'd go for McGrane, he's the natural leader of the team.  If he didn't want it I'd say it would go to A Kernan or Maybe Stevie

I know a lot of people dont like S.Kernan but at least he's capaple of getting a few scores, he was armaghs second highest scorer last year.  I think he could be capaple of a lot more this year with out the pressure of playing under Joe.

Does anyone know if the county championship draws taken place yet?

I agree with all that, he is a great defender but just doesn't have the discipline for CHB.  Not yet anyway.

I thought Moriarty done well in full back, in the second half anyway for I couldn't see much action in the 1st in Armagh's half.  By the way McKeever put his knee in yer mans face as well, think he's a great player but a pure gypsy on the field.  Dont think he's fit for centre half yet anyway.
