It's true, we always seem to get harsh draws in the qualifier I'm just amazed we managed to get home advantage itself!
Leaving aside the SJ issue for a moment, in pure football terms Kildare are streets ahead of Cavan right now and they've already got their wake up call and kick in the arse from Meath so expect that to be taken out on us when the day comes. Add in the SJ issue and it might balance some things out a little more in our favour but by nowhere near enough. Kildare are a streetwise professional outfit who operate in a different orbit to us and they very capable of dealing with the psychology around the occasion.
It's a shame because what this team needed were some more challenges against opposition more within our compass, to develop young players and give them a chance in the years ahead. Hopefully a plucky performance along the lines of the good patches v Donegal can prevent a hammering and stop any damage being done to our developing project.

Really tough draw had hoped for something a little easier. But, if you were going to pick a day to get Kildare this is it. Will be interested to see if the Kildare camp crack a little bit. One hell of a performance in Brewster, in fairness to McKiernan he dragged the team along. Caught 3 ~ 4 balls under serious pressure when needed and started and finished the first goal.

The pressure is on McGeeney if with 10 minutes to go and his team are two points down (dreamland maybe) Then what the hell was the whole SJ thing about if he does not play him. Had recorded the Kildare / Meath game and watched it last night (sad). Kildare have not a forward to kick the ball over the bar when under pressure. Now SJ has faults but that is not one of them

Sure a lump of cardboard and a marker would do rightly.

Hi everyone,

Sorry to hijack the thread but please bear with me!

I have been made aware of a study that the University of Ulster are currently carrying out into defibrillators in the GAA. It's an all-Ireland study that is based on line.

As this is such an important and emotive subject for many of us Gaels I thought that I should try to get the word out so that as many of us as possible participate in order to make the results more reliable. The link is below and I would encourage everyone to take the 5 minutes and complete the form. The idea is to get a picture of where we are at as an organisation with the provision of this life saving equipment.

I should state that this is not my study and I am not involved in it other than that I know the people carrying it out. But on their behalf I would like to thank everyone who does fill it out in advance. Your help will be greatly appreciated and hopefully will help the GAA and all of our members. Getting this information may eventually even help to save lives.

Go raibh maith agat!

He was using the Cavan gym when the senior panel were training and at the same time as he was whinging to the media about Val Andrews. Nothing would surprise me with the neck of that boy. I hope he is starting on Sunday.

Hopefully he gets what's coming to him this Sunday. Imagine some clown made that lad captain of cavan. Most have been the worst decision ever by a cavan manager.
