Official Cavan GAA Thread

[Dougal]

to be honest i wouldnt give a toss if we had of lost today,we played some good football,played like we wanted to be there and played with pride.they really gave it there all today,lets hope they can keep it up,and hopefully we can get a decent crowd behind the team aswell.

As designated driver for the day Im just home, I even heard Croke Park being mentioned at some stage tonight!
Great team performance but repeating it next week and the week after is what we all wanna see.

I'd keep the bandwagon up on blocks for now, tougher tests lie ahead (Antrim next up who beat a decent Sligo outfit without most of their best players) but it sounds like the lads were organised, motivated and played to a gameplan so credit where its due and well done, it's something we can build on.

Good to see the thread has moved on from our discussions of saturday night 
One point to bring us back to earth,id rate Thomas Corr as a footballer as anyone who has seen my posts on here can see.
However i believe he will be badly exposed at full back before this league campaign is out.
I know Shine is a very good footballer,but Corr struggled badly at times i thought.
Hes much better out the field,id prefer to see him tried at Midfield.

Ahh I thought Corr done rightly on Sunday but either way would like to see him getting 3 or 4 games there anyway. Let him have a good shot at it.

What did you all think of mid field?  I thought the two boys did well but the amount of running around that goes on before a kickout so a keeper can try and pick out a handy catch for a mark is ridiculous and is definitely slowing down the game going by Sunday anyway.

[Denn Forever]

Don't see it either.  A lot of people's second choice there.

The homecoming for Damian will be interesting and thank you Gowna but there'll be no favours that night.

Tough draw for ourselves

Drumgoon and our neighbours the Bridge.

As favourites, yas shouldn't have too much problems with that group.

[Celt_Man]

4 fairly even enough groups in the Intermediate.  the only group I would even hazard a guess at predicting the top 2 would be the last one with Drumalee and Ballinagh.  Although Laragh and Kill are dogged and definite bananaskins in the making...

As for our own group, Bailieboro were semi finalists last year so will obviously tough, Killinkere - I have never had an easy game against Killinkere in my life and Cavan Gaels will be an big unknown come championship time. 
How come they can be in Intermediate without winning Junior anyway??
