Carlow Under 21 squad 2012
That can't be true about Gahan. Why would he drop our best player? If it was a few months ago might be understandable but hasnt he been in training and playing games?

Players who can make an impact at senior level?
Pick any 5 or 6 from this years Eire Og minor team and you wont go far wrong.

Carlowstar its got nothing to do with Eire Og bias. I would start him ahead of Murtagh even. Hes that good i think.

Carlow obviously arnt very serious about the u21 championship. Gahan dropped, cant see lukes logic with that descision

Players who can make an impact at senior level?
Just looking to get some opinions on which young players around the county can make an impact at senior county level over the next few years. Let's limit it to minors and up. I'm just curious as to what people think as I was having a similar conversation with some friends recently. I'm not looking for a messiah or anything but surely there must be some youngsters who will improve the county seniors in the near future?

heard some of players have been dropped includin gahan which is hard to believe given that he is prob our best player. Cant share your optimism Supersub about Sunday, think we will lose and have to listen to sorry old excuses once more.

Best wishes to MLR in All Ireland Final
Best of luck to them on sat night. Great to see a carlow side in an All Ireland final.
Really hope we get a big crowd up, even so we'll be lost in Croker just like CR final a couple years back but sure any kinda roar will be heard.

Can't wait for it and look forward to mlr giving carlow hurling a very badly needed boost. A MLR win and Carlow footballers beating Leitrim on sunday wud make it a great weekends work!

Best wishes to MLR in All Ireland Final
With a small bit of luck that every team needs to win a major title, heres hoping that MLR can clinch that title on Sat, and write a piece of indellible history in Carlow's sporting folklore. All the best to MLR.

Fermanagh, Wicklow and ourselves haven't kicked a ball yet,(No disprect to Kilkenny as they're just not interested) and no surprises after yesterday's games that were played, it's early days and still all to play for. IMO, to win any game, a level of fitness that's greater than the opposition is paramount everything else is secondary, so if we have improved /increased our level of fitness by 35 to 40% over last year we will take both points on Sunday, I have no doubt what so ever about that, but if not it's game lost before a ball is kicked. Leitrim was one of the teams that I fancied to get promoted before a ball was kicked yesterday and even allowing for that defeat against Limerick and should they beat us I would be more confident of them going up to Div.3 it's only a matter of who goes with them, however should we beat Leitrim on Sunday, I see no reason why we wont get promoted at their expense and provided we have the level of fitness thats necessary to get us there. A huge plus for Leitrim is that they are going into that match with a game under their belt, 'tis a great advantage to them.
While there are a couple of favourites in some peoples minds as to who will get promoted, there are definatly no certainities, that's why I say theres not one team in Div.4 looking forward to playing any of the others. - - - - with victory guaranteed.

Best of luck to MLR on Saturday night next. A great occasion for club and county! Hope that all Carlovians make the effort to go to Croke Park and roar them on!!

I wouldnt be too disappointed of they lost. Clubs in All Ireland Semis would be flying and motivated. A county team wouldn't treat the game as serious. Presume Carlow would be giving the bench players game time.

Bennekerry - the carlow senior team play St Brigids club team yesterday and were beaten. I wasn't at it so i don't know what the team was or how much they were beaten by. I would hope that there would have been close to a full squad given that the league began yesterday - perhaps someone who was at it can give us the 'low down' on this game? Not sure how effective county teams playing club teams is especially if they lose to them -cant be a great confidence booster.

He lacks experience at county under 21 level, i agree he is a class footballer, but would you start him ahead of lads with more experience at that level? sheppard? Gahan? murtagh weir? dont think so lads, think with your heads not with your footballing bias just cause hes from eire og..

Didnt hear about Waterford IT . Lads were all in Croke Park on Sat night and in Glendalough overnight then for training camp. Heard only good things about the weekend in fairness.

Next Sunday def is a big game but I'm certain we will win. Rainbow has strengthened the back room team and preparations have been good. Wicklow had their easy win over Kilkenny and Limerick beat Leitrim in Leitrim. Clare had a big win over Waterford. That was a strange one with so many sendings off. Fermanagh had a wasted journey to London.
Did Carlow have a training session or a game on this free weekend?
The Carlow squad has youth on its side and won't lack fitness or determination.
Promotion has to be a huge carrot for them all and if they can achieve that they could develop into a fine team. They would be heading into Div 3 as a young eager bunch with all their careers ahead of them.
Two points next Sunday, two over in London. Then a toughie against Clare but at home before the All Ireland Champions Kilkenny!

I agree with you boss. I believe we are going to mess up again cos I dont believe the management are up to it. I think we will struggle to win more than 3games and then we will have the usual excuses trotted out again.
