So, over the 4 games who really put their hand up for stepping up to senior panel? Any springers?

This competition seems to have been of huge value to the Laois under 20 panel for next year. A number of younger players in the county have really progressed throughout this year's championship and divisional games and these experiences should stand to them hugely going forward. Billy O'Loughlin (despite huge resentment/criticism within the county to his appointment) did a good job last year with Laois giving the eventually All-Ireland champions a serious challenge. You would hope that next year's team will be equally as competitive.

Yes there are a few lads who haven't played minor or U20 for Laois who impressed. Plenty who haven't played senior either but most of those who impressed are U20 so if nothing else it has been a very worthwhile exercise.

The players themselves certainly bought into it by the numbers involved. 
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That's real glory. VinceLombardi
