What's the status of our possible squad for 2007?
Who is likely to break into the squad?
Packie – Back for another year of eye poking and long kickouts
J.Devine – Are they still going to take turns this year or is he now No.2
Ricey – Thought he wasn't as good in 2006 but then again who was. Will he get in
trouble in 2007
McGee – Has he finally nailed down his place now or is he too small?
Carlin - Always promises a lot but never settles into the side? CB or HB?
Gourley – Always injured but I think can be a great defender but was poor last year.
C.McGinley – Seems to do well for club & Mickey likes him but will he be No3 this year
C.Gormley - Returning from injury. Will he be the same? Will be at 6 or 3 or 8?
Joey McMahon – Another who gets lots of injuries and does Mickey not like playing him
What's his best position? FB, CHB, MF?
C.Holmes – Always seems to be injured but plays the odd game. Solid but not
spectacular
P.Jordan – Has gone to Aus for the winter but should be to reclaim No7 shirt.
Is he still Mr Consistent and does he whinge too much?
D.Harte – Seems slow and awkward but has made the 5 shirt his own and scored the odd
Point
Hub – Came back last season but found the going tough and still seems to go a bit OTT
with the physical stuff.
Cavanagh – Sean still seems to be in good form and will benefit when others around him give some support. Again is he best in MF or HF?
Cavlan – Will he be back in 2007? Will he be injured every 2nd game? His potential is awesome and I would like to see him in the team.
Dooher – If he can get over his injury, which is still very sore then he can be great again.
If not we will miss his hoovering breaking ball big time.
B.McGuigan – We know what he can do and how he controls our attack but will he come back as good from such a horrendous injury? We all expect so but maybe not so easy.
E.McGinley – Another who gets lots of injuries but when he plays puts in a lot of work and can kick scores too. Best position probably 3rd MF from Corner Forward or maybe take Dooher's role if he's out.
Mugsy – Which one? Mugsy pre-Dublin goal or Post Dublin goal. Hard to believe he scored 2-6 in 2nd Louth game but I fear in tight tough games he has fallen back a bit.
S.O'Neill – Still outstanding if given the right ball but Ref's tend to let defenders constantly pull and drag at him but play the advantage as he's so strong.
McCullagh – Brought back last year and got a few scores. Is small and accurate but finds it hard to win clean possession.
Penrose – Huge potential and think will come good when in open matches. Not sure will he start though if full squad to pick from.
Mellon – Hot and cold. Has work cut out to make starting lineup if all fit.
Mulgrew – A lot of talk about the young fella and Mikey seems to like him but has played in some very tough physical games and not really shone. Where to play him?
I don't know much about the possible new additions to the squad but by the sounds of the trials these 5 seem to be mentioned a lot.
Colm Cavanagh (Moy)
Niall McGinn (Donaghmore)
Gareth Devlin (Stewartstown)
Paul Quinn (Errigal Ciaran)
Paul Mc Gurk (Cookstown)
