Is there many from either side back again next year?

Had a look at the 2022 Ulster Minor Final and Derry only had 4 from the panel that played against Tyrone that day, available again this year: McEldowney,  McGuckian, Higgins and Spiers. Think Boyle was part of the wider panel last year.

Dillon, Sargent and Young definitely underage. Next year , I think Grant and McCloy are too

North Man

Aye Grant and Mc Cloy are.
Adrian Mc Guickan's cub is too.
I think there is 10 or 11 on the panel that are eligible next year.
Sargent from Lavey is some operator.

You already know Sargent be a senior county man at this stage already, he stands out the way Mark Lynch, James Keilt,  did at this level.

Well deserved poty. Unplayable at times. It'll be interesting to see if Derry can fit him into the senior setup at some point with the role he plays.

He's probably only 17.

Give him a couple of years.

Yes, let's see how he goes at AFL first.

Not criticising the young fella in anyway but don't they usually go for taller players? He makes up for that in plenty of other ways of course

Where did he write him off? Totally fair point by Brendan, and if anything a fact - they do go for bigger lads in Oz

Fair enough. I blame Walter. And jet lag. A dangerous combo 😃
