Gutted would be an understatement. The game plan seemed to work perfectly up until we led 15-11, but we slowly retreated and that extra few metres of standing off the man in possession cost us big time. I don't think management encouraged that, it just happened. Maybe making the subs 5/10 minutes earlier would have helped somewhat.

It's hard not to think this could be our last chance of meaningful silverware for a while given the draw we got this year and last year, as well as some of the more experienced players possibly moving on.
Forker has been on the senior panel since 2012, Soupy, Murnin and Grugan a year or two after him - do they have it in them to give it another crack after such disappointment? Even some of the less heralded players are late 20s/30 years of age at this stage.
I don't think there are any players around the county that are banging the door down to be on the panel that haven't been given their chance. What we have at the moment is the best we have to offer. Hopefully there's more in the tank to give the summer a good crack, but I'd be fearful that our chance has possibly slipped us by for another few years.
