Think the players are there to give Sam a rattle, it'll come down to how hard the supporting cast are pushing the front line, selection and arousal

Good to see Mark Bradley going rightly

[Truthsayer]

Can't see them push for Sam this year. Has been a few poor years, improvement be welcome. Armagh losing Rian O'Neill is huge, as bad as Shane O'Donnell out for Clare. Best Ulster hope is Donegal. Jimmy's a shrewd boy .. wudnt put it past him! 🏆

Seanie O'Donnell is the closest thing we have to a Ryan McHugh-Meyler-young Ricey McMenamin

I'd be disappointed if he's not starting, ideally at 5 and let him join the dots

Is that group of players good enough to win the All Ireland?

[Onthe40]

Oguz & ODonnell won't Start on current form
Big Joe didn't look at the races on Sunday
Daly whilst not his biggest fan chips in with scores every game and has been a constant, be surprised if doesn't start..id expect mccurry and daly to start

[tiempo]

A cohort of very versatile players playing in different positions week on week

We need specialists and continuity

Incoherent at 11 since the last All-Ireland, we absolutely need someone there who is a scoring/playmaking threat and not a join the dot workhorse

Ulster U20 Group A Round One
Down 0-11 3-15 Tyrone

Defending U20 All-Ireland Champions Tyrone began their Ulster campaign with a strong second half display resulting in a 13-point victory over Down in Burren.
Down were well in the game at the break, with the sides level 0-7 to 1-4, but two more Tyrone goals and 11 points to Downs four was emphatic for Paul Devlin's team.

The hosts came out of the blocks promisingly, with four points on the board before Tyrone got a meaningful touch on the ball.
Eoghan Travers came close to a goal from throw-in but Tyrone netminder Conor McAneaney made the close-range save for a '45 that Travers sent between the sticks.
Meanwhile Down goalkeeper DJ Farrell was spending most of his time in the attack line and it paid off as he hit a two-pointer and a single score to give his side a four-point lead.
Tyrone settled after that and it seemed they had gained control when points from Noah Grimes, Daragh Donaghy and Ruairi McCullagh preceded a goal from Conor O'Neill following a lovely one-two with captain Joey Clarke.
Still, there was no shaking the home side at that stage, as Travers raised an orange flag to stop the rot and with two more scores at either end, the sides were level 0-7 to 1-4 at half-time.

Tyrone senior player Eoin McElholm came on at-half-time and was dominant straight away with a point and four more to follow.
On 35 minutes Clarke once again set up Liam Og Mossey for the second goal that put Tyrone 2-6 to 0-8 to the good and while Down weren't ready to throw in the towel yet, the signs were there.
They almost pulled a maximum back when Callan Morgan dropped a free attempt short and Lorcan Ward rolled the ball inches wide of the empty net but Tyrone went straight down the field and while a Grimes goal was disallowed as a square ball, McElholm put them six in front from the resulting free.
It was plain sailing for the champions after that, with two points and a third goal from McElhattan giving them an unassailable 3-13 to 0-9 lead and while Travers converted a two-point free to put his side into double digits, Tyrone ran out comfortable winners.

Down: DJ Farrell 0-3 (1tp); B Christie, L Vaughan, L Lynch; D Murdock, J McFerran, C Morgan (0-1); D McKernan, L Quinn; E Murray, L Ward, E Travers 0-6 (1′45, 1 tp, 1f, 1tpf); B McEvoy 0-1(1f), C Clerkin, O Murphy.

[ShoresOfTyrone]

Slow start for the U20's but when they got settled and going in the second half they never looked in doubt. Squad depth looked good with their introductions from the bench, Michael McIlhatten and Eoin Donaghy in particular. McElhom was also brilliant when he came on.

Why was McElholm on the bench?

Is Caolan Donnelly Fintona injured? Why is Charlie Donnelly not on the panel?

I assume because he doesn't play senior football for trillick? Same as Nathan farry who was a big presence in those minor teams.

Obviously trillick have a lot of talent but I don't think either Charlie or Nathan even came close to coming on as a sub for them in the club championship. You can't expect to make a county u20 team if you can't even get on your own Club side.

Is this a serious post ?
Trillick have 6 senior county panellists,add in Lee Brennan, the second Gray, Daire and Michael Gallagher and there aren't many spots left.
If the two lads in question played for Gortin would you say they were good enough.
Surely lads should be judged on how good they are as opposed to how good their club team is

[marty34]

Does each county pick their U20 panel differently?

Trials or just ask 35 lads onto the panel?
