Our under 20s looked very good at times yesterday too, drawing with Cavan and finishing their league campaign unbeaten after three. Obvious progress in this sector, with half a dozen players or more marking themselves out for senior activity in the near future. Well done to Hugh and backroom team, this set up has been impressive and the panel has responded. Question.....how many McRory cup medalists are on this panel from either St Marys Mfelt (2017) or St Ronan's (2018).

Totally agree with you, Antrim were by far the better team. And only for a crazy 5 minute spell straight after half time should've been out of sight

Kildare. Not sure how to feel about that one. Hopefully they're wounded by the dublin defeat!

It could have been a lot worse
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Yeah. They're a lot weaker without Daniel Flynn but you would still have them as favourites. Still - nothing to lose.

Would expect them to be a big strong athletic team, but their shooting has always let them down, so a punchers chance.  Is there any possibility of getting them into an Antrim ground?

Tough enough draw but some good signs from us in the last 2 games so fingers crossed.

Will this be another 'away' game then

Take them to Ballycastle, the most northern part of the county. They'll never cope with the wind and rain, even in June  ;)

Louth came off a complete battering by the dubs and were in poor form when we beat them. Hopefully Kildare will be similarly depleted in morale- another great opportunity to take a bigger scalp as far as I'm concerned. The lads will be growing in confidence and, as Paddy McBride has tweeted, #WhiterockOrNowhere

Corrigan it seems for the game

Seems only sensible that we play our home tie in a home venue.  What is Corrigan's official capacity and are there any other grounds in the county that can hold greater numbers with sign off & approvals from police/health and safety?    All ticket affair then

We got battered too so were coming from a similar place.

I wonder would it be all ticket. Not much time to sort out the logistics of that. Is the safety check a capacity check?

think Brendan Crossen was saying on twitter that it would be 2000 capacity. it will be an all ticket game at that rate then.

I dont know what the safe capacity is for Corrigan at all tbh. Someone here might know better
hurl like f**k boi!

:P lol

id say Kildare will have a large support for the game so 2000 wouldnt cover everyone who wants to go to the game.
