Nearly at full strength really bar martin Dunne and cian Mackey and maybe 1/2 others! Interesting no Gaels lads? Maybe the Co Champions aren't good enough! Only Terry and his ex gaels side kick will know the answer to that one!! Any best of luck to all involved in the coming season! Good result today! dirtybag (Cavan) - Posts: 242 - 04/01/2015 17:58:27 1680414 Link 0 |
It's the McKenna cup dirtybag a chance to experiment so an absolutely idiotic comment. doratheexplorer (Cavan) - Posts: 1467 - 04/01/2015 18:13:16 1680419 Link 0 |
Dirtybag, have you ever said anything positive. Why does this forum and administration allow your constant attacks on good Cavan men like Terry Hyland. Cavan were missing Dunne, Keating, McEnroe, Mackey, Argue, Mounagh, Gilsenan and host of u21s and guys playing with there colleges. You are an embarrassment to yourself and your Gaels club. fredflint (Cavan) - Posts: 1483 - 04/01/2015 20:05:53 1680466 Link 0 |

Was in Newry yesterday, Very good workrate by the lads. Experimental team but early days. Some notable performances from Josh Hayes and Martin Reilly, Dara McVeety, Tom Hayes played very well when he came on, think he won all but one of the balls that went into him. Jack Brady lost 7 out of 8 balls that went into him in corner forward but when he went to half forward thought he produced a good display. Damien Reilly had a very good game at center back and set up a lot of attacks. DA lot of positives from yesterday without the regulars and under 21s. cavan97 (Cavan) - Posts: 369 - 05/01/2015 08:49:48 1680504 Link 0 |

I was at the Dublin game yesterday and Faulkner was marking Eoghan O'Gara. O'Gara scored an early goal and he was then switched onto him but did a good job on him overall. CFC (Australia) - Posts: 25 - 05/01/2015 12:59:57 1680587 Link 0 |

were we playing a defensive style football like last year? or was it more attack based? sammaguire1 (Cavan) - Posts: 279 - 05/01/2015 16:47:11 1680700 Link 0 |
Sammaguire it wasnt as defensive. When we attacked we did it quicker and committed a lot more forward. There was no extra man in defense but we did defend in numbers cavan97 (Cavan) - Posts: 369 - 05/01/2015 19:16:22 1680759 Link 0 |
Cavan 97, I like the sound of your report. Couldn't make it but looking forward to seeing more of what you describe. RoyalBlue2 (Cavan) - Posts: 198 - 05/01/2015 19:44:49 1680769 Link 0 |

It seems like Cavan were at the blanket defence set up again if you can go by the Down managers reaction.... Are we in for another year of puke football..???? Sean66 (Cavan) - Posts: 440 - 06/01/2015 12:04:25 1680853 Link 0 |
Was the Down manager at the same game as the rest of us!? Down frequently had 13 men behind the ball. Cavan were much much more positive than Down. We scored 2-11 for God's sake. Sour grapes from a man trying to deflect attention from his own failings. Inactive x5 (Cavan) - Posts: 1452 - 06/01/2015 13:14:54 1680876 Link 0 |
Only reading between the lines JonSmith so dont be getting too hot under the collar so early in the season.... I hope it was sour grapes from the Down manager...but if not an awfull lot of people will stay in those armchairs in 2015... Sean66 (Cavan) - Posts: 440 - 06/01/2015 13:39:46 1680888 Link 0 |
Sean66 there was no blanket defence nor was there a sweeper. Damien was centre half and it was 15 on 15. When down came forward our midfielders and half backs tackled and tackled well. Sure Barry Reilly dispossessed Down in the half forward line to set up our second goal. Down's Conor Laverty (corner forward) was helping out in corner back so Down were defending too. But for Jim McCorry the rest of his players didn't look as fit as our lads. For me Im booking my hotel for Galway. I love supporting this county and the effort that the guys put in I think we should do the same. I missed the Limerick game last year out of McKenna, national league and championship and if im gonna moan or give out about tactics or players then ill do it after watching them . cavan97 (Cavan) - Posts: 369 - 06/01/2015 14:13:42 1680904 Link 0 |
Cavan 97 where you at the game? There was no way it was 15 on 15. Roman Flanagan played as a sweeper. There no point in discussing anything with ppl who weren't at the match. dirtybag (Cavan) - Posts: 242 - 06/01/2015 15:05:34 1680942 Link 0 |
I think I'd believe JonSmith before I'd believe the Down manager. 2-11 speaks for itself any day. Let's hope it continues to develop and in fairness to the players it will take some time to move it on to a sharper level. RoyalBlue2 (Cavan) - Posts: 198 - 06/01/2015 15:05:43 1680943 Link 0 |
Sorry Dirtybag to disappoint, I was there and didn't see Flanagan marshalling anywhere. No one played in front of Rory or Damien. so where was he sweeping? cavan97 (Cavan) - Posts: 369 - 06/01/2015 15:24:38 1680955 Link 0 |
