Can anyone tell me what happens in Div 4 after tonight's fixtures?  I believe the league splits into top six and bottom six.  Does that mean each club then has 5 more league fixtures or 10?  Or does the split have some relevance to the JFC?

Yes, I have asked our committee and I'm none the wiser!!

Down have named the same 1st 15, that they named v Cavan. Mason came in for McAleenan last week, I'd expect the same to happen again.

Shane Annett and Ryan McEvoy impressed when introduced last week, I wouldn't be suprised if either or both nudged their way in for a start.

Teams in each section play one more round of games against eachother, meaning 16 league games played in total. Not sure if there is any bearing on the championship though.

McEvoy should definitely be starting

[ardtole]

I'd like to see him in midfield alongside Murdock, could be the makings of a good partnership. In reality he could play in any position on the field and do really well.

No bearing on championship just split in half like MVNP says and play each other once

Good luck to the players and management tomorrow, hopefully good Down following down to cheer them on. Down by 5 for me

You beat Cavan by 5 so you should be beating Laois by at least 10 especially in Croker that's the way I look at it .

Down haven't won in croke pk since the all Ireland semi in 2010.  Ould be a shaky enough fame. Bar the kilcoo lads has any of the others played there?  Damp morning in Dublin. Looking forward to it. Hopefully Down turn up. Wide open pitch should suit the breaking at pace.

Might need to split Down in 2 way we're playing today

Our anti-everything contributors are going to be living on diet of scraps for today at least.
