The hunting season is well underway and the Lark has been wounded, but not fatally. Galway Bhoy takes over the lead.

Cheeky Dubs like their fashion

I would give it to O'Se. League and Championship he was excellent. Kerry's season turned in the main with the move of Donaghy to the edge of the square but remember the crucial score came in the first minute of the second half against Armagh. From then on the kingdom were on fire.

Keith Higgins will be Young Player of the Year taking into account his u21 performances, and championship performances (forgetting most of the Dublin game, and the Final).

Venter I'd like to see Brian Benson given a go.

Jimmy Nallen is a legend but his best days are behind him. He still has a role to play though and I would not even contemplate dropping him completely from the squad. You never know JOM may reinvigorate him - he did help Ray Silke win an AI after all. 

Of the Ballagh contingent I would rate David Kilcullen very highly. Not sure about Drake - he' certainly no Jimmy Nallen. Barry Regan looked to have potential but he looked like a fish out of water against Laois. In fairness he was thrown in at the deep end but I don't think he has the pace for Summer football.

The first XV needs tweaking in the backs in particular. Otherwise the rest of our team is as good as we have got unless somebody puts down a marker.

Look at the user profile. Talk about Big Brother with all the statistics! Time spent on line! Analysis of log-in times etc.

Club - cannot be disclosed as I am currently under surveillance by Mayo County Board.

County - Maigh Eo

Best Memory - well last year against Dublin is hard to beat, and the u21 Final was special.

Phew, found the way over here. Like the new set-up.

I think the JOM deal will be sorted out fairly quickly, but it needs to be.

Somebody mentioned above a 1 year deal. Its not what we want. We need somebody committed to changing around the team, and replacing the likes of Heaney, Nallen, Brady and McDonald over the coming 2/3 years. If he is not prepared to do that I would not give him the job.

Anyway I don't think he'll have to worry about Dail business. And of course the best way for FF to sell things - the county has the football manager it wants, why jeopordise that by voting for him!
