any word on casualties for the county team last night

High Catch

Was everyone told last night at a meeting or something?

Suely there could not have been too many cuts with the Cross men still unavailable?

When are the league fixtures published?

your right Ben.  He's safe for the minute, as is shorty.  Haven't heard any other reports

diesel smuggler and arm mhacha abu won't be happy

Seany

Just heard it.  I haven't heard about anyone else tho.  Is it a further sign of a shift away from big men and towards speed and nippiness?  Paul Keenan is a good lad imo

Has shorty been kept on panel?? Forker and k.orourk are still there also.

yes shorty is still on the panel

There's another cut after the national league, so hopefully these new boys get a chance to play alongside some of the more experienced players to we see if they really have got what it takes

Having been at all 3 McKenna Cup games, it's very dficult to draw accurate conclusions due to the conditions and the personnel.
however i'd say the following:

Worries:

no young lads grasped the nettle.
Midfield without McGrane will be a trouble spot
full back remains a problem
McNulty struggled very badly in all three games against three different types of forward.
No obvious scoring talent at this level is emerging

Up in the air:

vernon, courtney, o'rorke, lavery & o'neill are possibly the best equipped to break through but haven't been seen with the established crew. only one scoring forward there though.
toner may be the best bet for full back but is unavailable for now.

positives:

there were flashes of potential and certainly encouragement from g loughran, moriarty and swift.
a o'rourke established that he can compete well and strentghen dfensive options.
all of our scoring guns are yet to tog out.

IMO your very wrong i thought the likes of forker did extra well and are more than capable of a score or two!
