Good man Colonel Cool, if you don't like the thread make sure to post on it and keep it at the top of the page anyway!

Mr Tool's return

Mr Tool? Ha ha ha that's brilliant!! Unbelievable!

Please Kerry Mike tell us another one! Don't stop!!!

Anyone who accuses Eugene McGee of engaging in "gutter journalism" is obviously an idiot.

just need to harness him and get him to channel his aggression into CHB and teach him not to foul

Is that all? 

Seriuosly, he needs to keep the head if he wants to be a county footballer. It's no good being the best player on the field for 60 minutes and being on the line for the last ten when the match is up for grabs.

Any player who gets himself sent off can't handle the heat - this is something 100% of sports psychologists agree on believe it or not.

I think there's so many examples of each that it's obvious there is no reliable correlation between club and county success.

All an All Ireland winning club side means for the county is that you have a couple of top class players who know how to do the business in big games - nothing more, nothing less.

Eugene McGee in fairness to him wouldn't be the type to make stuff up, he's usually reliable and bang on the money. I would be surprised if he hadn't spoken to McGuigan himself off the record.

I honestly think Cavan will make a lot of progress this year (if their manager stays out of the can!).

We've hit one of the lowest ebbs we've ever been at - the only way really is up. There is a strong core of talented young players and a nice mix of experience too if they can be coaxed to put in a serious effort.

As someone pointed out on this board before, if you had've said in May '94 when we had lost our sixth first round game in a row that within three years we'd be Ulster champions (when Ulster meant something) and have made an Under 21 All Ireland final you'd have been laughed at.

That Under 21 team in 96 did nothing at minor remember, not unlike this year's Under 21 crop. Like 97, we've got a good draw at senior this year, avoiding the big guns really until the Ulster final (hypothetical obviously).

The spine of the defence are in their prime now - Miller (if he plays), Rabbitt, Forde, Gunner... Up front then we have three of the best 22 year olds in Ireland in Brady, Johnston and McKeever.

I mean the likes of Beano McDonald or Donie Brennan wouldn't hold a candle to Johnston. He's the main man this year, but a lot depends on McKeever. When he plays really well Cavan are a different team. He's the forgotten man I think.

Then you still have the likes of McCabe, Jason, Larry - surely they have something to offer...

What was the final score?

The whole county knew about it, sure he's one of the most high profile GAA people in Cavan.

However, as the saying goes, he who pays the piper calls the tune...

I hear there was a big spread in the Star yesterday about Keogan "Big name GAA manager faces 12 charges" or something

Anyone see it?

Anyone give us a report on the U21 final?

How did Killian Phair do?

I suppose by hook or by crook, you were determined to get that hurley through customs...

Dublin has loads of multi-storey parking,

not within an asses roar of Croker though

of the teams in the other side of the draw only Down could muster a crowd

Now I see what people mean when they say that Armagh supporters think Ulster football started in 1999.

Cavan definitely wouldn't bring any sort of crowd if they got an Ulster final in Croke Park. 

Ath this time of year if you're just super fit you're bound to stand out though. Come summer when everyone is flying fit it could be a different story...
