Dara mcaveety playing in the full forward line poses far more of a threat than sj, so does Mackey, sj is far to easily marked out of a game at county level, you will say that they are different types of players yes they are but in the full forward line they have the strength to win their own ball and take on their man.

Depends on what way you define the forward. Johnston is better at shooting then McVeety. McVeety better at ball winning. Johnston was excellent alongside Givney when Cavan got promoted from Div 2. Givney the target man . FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 18/10/2017 10:14:40 2055946 Link 0 |
I'd agree with that.

Mackey or McVitty don't play in the full forward line . They are ball carriers. Both come from deep. Johnston is a scoring forward.. like Dunnie and Jack Brady give them 3 the ball and they will kick a score 8/10 times. Either of them 3 playing off Givney would be a good full forward line.

Any time during the league last year that dara was played in the full forward line he was far more effective than sj,

SJ has been the best scoring forward in this years club championship. Even his movement off the ball is class when playing with good players who supply him properly ie Kevin Meehan and Levi Murphy to name but 2. Kevin Meehan if interested is a must for this years panel. He has improved 100% as a player since he last was there. Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 18/10/2017 15:17:03 2056028 Link 0 |
Well sorry for having an opinion, I thought this was a discussion board & didn't realise we had to agree with your ideas. We all know the limitations in the cavan squad to well but forgive me for thinking that playing Louth, Meath, down & Tipperary at home & Clare away are winnable. We gained promotion in a far tougher div 2 two years ago & people were still calling for Terry's head. Yes Tipperary beat us in the championship but we were competitive in most of our div 1 games last year & surely we have to be optimistic of our chances bond (Longford) - Posts: 174 - 18/10/2017 15:42:20 2056035 Link 1 |
from what i heard the setup is in disarray, with more players not committing that committing, no selectors yet and some of the names that are in there on panel does not bode well for the coming year. gowna02 (Cavan) - Posts: 99 - 19/10/2017 10:20:18 2056155 Link 0 |
Probably not a surpirse the way players were being taken on and off in games. Other players barely being given a chance. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 19/10/2017 11:09:01 2056172 Link 0 |
They have been walking for the last 5 years . At least subs are getting game time now. 2/3 years ago they were getting 2/3 minutes at the end of a game . Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 19/10/2017 12:33:42 2056198 Link 0 |
Don't remember subs being brought on being taken off again. Ruining a players confidence. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 19/10/2017 13:28:47 2056208 Link 1 |
So they are leaving now because of Terry Hyland?

You created enough of completely classless threads about Terry. Maybe it's time to stop talking about him and grow up Deano. Hardtimes (Cavan) - Posts: 1056 - 19/10/2017 15:22:40 2056246 Link 0 |
Is there any word on whether Givney or Keating will come back in? That ball winning physicality was badly missed last year.

No need to relate me to other posters I've my own opinions. 1 username . My opinions on TH have been well documented. We will see how McGlennon does this year after his settling in year . I'd be expecting big improvement. Lots of lads I hear are not interested in joining the panel. Same as when TH was there. Everybody have a life and their own reasons. More to life than slogging your guts out for Cavan football Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 19/10/2017 16:13:29 2056262 Link 0 |
Haven't heard anything. Yes, Keating would definitely be a good addition to the panel.

Difference is lad you blamed Hyland 100% for fellas not wanting to commit but when the manager changed and the same thing is happening your opinion changes. Tells me a lot about you.

Don't remember subs being brought on being taken off again. Ruining a players confidence. Stick to your Hyland bashing though. Richiej/Awwnowww/inaroundthenuthouse FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts:1618 - 19/10/2017 13:28:47 2056208 I have been bashing my head here to remember this incident and yes it happened in Breifni? I think A Forde was on the side line. A player came on he kicks the ball twice one into an opponents hand and the second a wide was that player from Killeshandra midfielder he teaches in Dublin Declan McKiernan. I am open to correction off course. The Quiet Man (Cavan) - Posts: 4601 - 19/10/2017 17:36:20 2056299 Link 0 |
You have been known to do some Mattie bashing yourself this season Fredflint . Says a lot about you as a poster if you can't allow the manager 1/2 seasons but you could allow a previous manager 5 seasons. Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 19/10/2017 19:17:51 2056326 Link 0 |
Well we find ourselves back in Division 2, TH brought us to DIv 1 no one can take that from him. In the end of his time I thought THs selectors didn't serve him well enough, but overall under him Cavan made progress. shannon414 (Cavan) - Posts: 228 - 19/10/2017 20:52:24 2056348 Link 0 |
