I wonder will this change KK’s plan to keep Leigh Kavanagh and Ter Guinan for the Senior B.
You’d imagine it will, need to get their best team on the field


KK have managed both grades and squads exceptionally in the last couple of years, but I don’t think they can afford to leave a senior ...

All valid points. I know we’re probably getting a little off topic, but to me the parish rule is very much outdated and too simplistic. How is it fair on certain clubs, if we use Erin Rovers and Doon as examples, to try and compete with other clubs in the coming years when the population is ...

Realistically, it will never happen. I think there are far more problems than potential advantages, as I said in my original reply. LS has outlined even more potential issues that would arise if it were to be trialed, then when you add in how many club duals there are it simply would never work ...

The idea of joining clubs in the same parish/area is interesting. In Killeigh parish, you would be joining 3 clubs into 1 and in Daingean it would be 4 into 1, I might be mistaken on both. You might make a team capable of contesting a senior championship, but you will reduce playing numbers in those ...

I don’t know what the right answer is, but format now shows that it obviously isn’t of great importance to the CB and I think rightly or wrongly a lot of clubs look on it as an inconvenience. Clubs and club managers have done and will continue to stop players from playing in it, just think a serious ...

Might be time to get rid of it altogether. It’s obviously just a box ticking exercise at this stage and players are at risk of being overloaded. Not just the games, but club managers would want to have extra trainings which compounds the issue. Between our small player pool and high number of duals ...

I think there needs to be some personnel and positional changes to keep up the progress we are making. Hopefully Kelly and Mahon can stay fit and in the team, maybe Connelly pushes to 6 and Shirley can go to wing back or midfield. I think King in the corner is slightly wasted, while I think we lose ...

Hard luck to the team and management and congratulations to the Dubs. For me, injuries to key players throughout the year probably proved too costly, but Dubs deserved it today.

I disagree that this should be seen as the end of a journey. It should be the opposite in my eyes, the lads have brought ...

Interesting approach. Tough to know what’s the right thing. You could have a dual player who’s a squad player on both teams, would it be better for them to focus on one? But doing both has also proven to be beneficial. Hard to know, kind of damned if you do, damned if you don’t in my opinion

I'm hearing that the county board are no longer allowing dual players on development squad's and kids at 12 & 13 are now been asked to choose between hurling and football, I think that's madness


Don’t think it’s true. There are 5/6 duals on the U15 squad I believe, not sure about other squads.
