Any more word on McEvoy? Lining out today I assume, how did he get on at the AFL combine?

Aye, I think the biggest problem was that the new venue had an artificial surface and the team had only grass boots with them.

Good weekend for Swatragh people with sticks, Camogie yesterday and back to back hurling championships today, going for senior next year for a hat trick

1 camogie title in 20 odd years and a second division hurling title isn't exactly the stuff of dreams is it.

And the club season obviously doesn't go beyond Division 1. Here lies a mindset problem that goes through the county. Snobbery at it's finest.

Bellaghy - Peter Stuart. This is the most obvious one for me. I look at everything Morgan did this weekend and think how we could have a Morgan Lite in Stuart.

Newbridge - James Gribbin. A different option at GK.

Kilrea - Larry Kielt. 2 pointers

Glen - Ryan Dougan. Surely we can incentivize him to play? Especially with McKaigue on the way out and questions about McEvoys availability.

Lavey - Ruairi McGill. Watched Lavey a few times this year and this young man stood out every time.

In fairness look at the Season Faughanvale have had, Promotion and a county final but I doubt there's anyone there able to step up to the county panel

Not what I'm getting at whatsoever. I come from a junior club myself. I've been to most senior championship games this year myself and was just asking the question.

Although not on a club on your list, Niall O'Donnell has been performing well

 Marty Bradley from  Screen will hopefully get more game time this year for  Derry , he was very impressive against Slaughtneil

Ryan Dougan and Conor Mcgrogan to shore up a softer back line, Padraig McGrogan will be back in March not sure about clucky

Would Dougan play??

I think Marty Bradley needs to be given some proper game time in the league this year. He was unlucky last year that he got injured during the McKenna cup when he could have played and didn't really get a chance after it so hopefully he can push on this year!

Bellaghy - Stuart & Charlie Diamond
Lavey - Rory McGill & Patrick McGurk
Loup - Caolan Devlin
Glen - Warnock & Dougan if you can get them
Serious lack of scoring forwards in the county. Also would love to know who these great hidden gems are playing Junior & Intermediate

The McKenna cup really is a huge loss, a safe space to play these guys. You can introduce 2/3 players in the league but that's about it, otherwise you leave yourself more open to relegation.
