All good competitive games in the SFC this weekend
Expect Ld to win by wont be by much
Glenavy I think could spring a surprise with a win
Ahoghill should have to much for the Musgrave men
Rossa could give casements a game but would expect the casements to pull through
The IFC is appealing to but with TNN and MG facing off should be a cracker heard all the duffins are back playing for MG so that's a big boost.

SFC going to be a hard one to call this year but I don't think it will be heading to the south west think it will be a St Johns ST Galls Final. I hear cargin are going to have a few regulars missing for the LD game?

i hear it was rough between Ld and Kickams yesterday with a man having to be air lifted to hospital ? hope he makes a full recovery, was at st johns and cargin a draw probably a fair result but cargin have a bit more in the tank have to be favourites for the championship.

Will Big Marty J feature for Kickams this year ?
no idea but any thoughts on why Creggan don't seem to reproduce their league form in the championship? too much emphasis on league maybe?
That would be right could be cargin ever game in the league, but bottle it come the championship always seem to run out of gas- to many sessions from madden maybe £?

So yous all reckon the managerial dream team of Burns, Murray, Adams and whoever else is involved will be relieved of their duties, wudnt bet on it!! Oh sure throw Paul Mc Ivor's name in there too, swipe Kilcoo's manager again and chase him after a year!!
Wouldn't talk much on this forum but going by my experience Cathal Murray is one of the best about -  However the same cant be said for Adams and Burns out of there depth at this level

I don't understand his reasoning behind not playing him. His size and ball winning ability would get him onto most teams in ulster - he is also not a full forward the fella has good hands not feet. Lenny baffles me some of the players on the panel would struggle to make some of the top club teams on the county. Another disappointing year for the saffrons :(

Some of these players are the only ones who will make themselves available. Their maybe not the best but they are trying their best and that is all you can ask if they are willing to commit.

I understand that but the amount  of top players we don't have representing our county is a disgrace no other county has this situation. Crozier McCann brothers Dermot McAleese, John Mcnabb - who best keeper in the county by a mile, Niall oneill worth his place, Martin Johnston ,  Eoin McKeown , Donal Nugent if he got into shape I could go on I know there are different reasons and it is unrealistic that every player will commit every year but we need these type of players in the saffron jersey - Phone calls need to be made accommodating these players situations or else sadly we will be in the basement for the foreseeable future.
Nonsense
Will be interesting in division 4 next year !

Molloy seems to be a breath of fresh air brilliant hurler with piles of speed I thought he would have been to light but seems to have proven me wrong. I believe Gérard Walsh is worth his place on that team however

a good player yes but will he make an impact on Saturday ? no. We need players to make an instant impact at this stage to try and salvage our season and enjoy a run in the qualifiers

i know conor small didn't want to join up with this years panel because he didn't enjoy it last year - cant blame the lad he's only a cub

I believe he will be spending the summer stateside. However if I was the manager next year I'd be getting him onside

I don't believe that's the reason he didn't join up doesn't go away until the end of June, Antrim's season will be over by then.
