Completely disagree lads. Gearoid, in my opinion, shows more quality in almost every facet of his game. Stronger and more comfortable on the ball, much better at taking scores and crucially, executes the simple skills of the game better. Givney may be a better fielder of the ball. 
We can only hope that Gearoid can return to fitness, it would be a real pity if we had a Ronan Clarke type on our hands. He's hugely committed though which is a great bonus to recovery.

A great player going forward, but not the best tracking back. The League game this year against Fermangh being an example. Although Givney sometimes goes missing in that area as well, maybe not as much.

I will bring this over from the other thread Rodney

QuoteMiller was beginning to be a liability in nets so hardy a surprise he wasn't selected.


When did he start becoming a liability?

rodney trotter

Lapse's of concentration in games, Kildare last year drippling the ball out of the goal (although Gilsenan made one error against Monagahan solid championsip bar that until he was injured). I suppose his kickouts were becoming to predicatable aswell.

Is he a clubmate of your's?

I think Miller was always going to be in nets for the Championship. Better keeper imo than O Meara.

No its just he went from the above to the below without playing.

what?

He went behind Gilesanan and O Meara when he started missing trainings. I suppose not attending the bonding session in Athlone didn't help.

He was a great Keeper for Cavan for a long time, but I suppose he couldn't afford to be missing training with the young players involved.

I was just interested in why you changed your mind , you would have known all that when you made that post in may.

Was giving him the benefit of doubt tbh, then I heard about not attending the Session in Athlone, wasn't aware of that. The players were either 100% in it for the championship or they weren't.

That's fair enough but he had good reason for not going to that.

What you think of the other Keeper going to Las Vegas  between championship games?

Hope he done well at Casino 8)

tommysmith

It was an expensive trip for him.

Arva beating Kildallan 1-12 to 1-8 in jfc.. Shercock beat Drung earlier 1.13 to 1.8 in intermediate.
Ramor - Drumgoon this evening. Conor Moynagh out for the rest of the year, rushed back to early from his latest injury. Co U21's would need him fully fit next year,

He does be under serious pressure from Drumgoon management to play its not fair on the lad.
