Not the first time we failed to bear a hurling County, big dome of the previous managers fans don't like hearing it. It's just a reflection of where Cavan Football is but some of the die hards refuse to believe it. Nevertheless, encouraging come back for the draw with all those new comers."]If they were a Hurling County they would just be playing Hurling. They are a dual County. As if Cavan have some devine right to beat Clare and Tip because they are good at Hurling."]They are predominantly a hurling county. Always have been. Cavan are almost entirely a football one. It's clear that we should be beating counties we have patent advantages over."]Not really. They are bigger Counties then Cavan, so can compete at a decent level in football. Tipperary have won plenty under age in Munster. Kilmurray reached the All Ireland Club final in 2010. A Cavan team has never even won Ulster.

Good comeback. Well done to all concerned. Valuable away point. Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 27/01/2018 17:23:13 2071104 Link 1 |
Probably a good point considering 13 lads made league debut. Though killian was brilliant, especially in 1st half. Holla really good and full back line did well. Same issue as always though, very little threat in forwards until Mackey came on. Need 2 points on Saturday against Louth as games will be getting harder each week after that. fredflint (Cavan) - Posts: 1483 - 27/01/2018 22:04:30 2071195 Link 0 |
Well done to the panel for their efforts yesterday. One point nearer the 7 needed to stay in the Division. A win against Louth would be a major help next Saturday. Given the backdrop going into the game it was a positive. Paddy Power were offering 4/11 about Clare during the week. kildare blue (Cavan) - Posts: 578 - 28/01/2018 08:31:00 2071249 Link 0 |
Paddy Power were offering 4/11 about Clare during the week. kildare blue (Cavan) - 28/01/2018 08:31:00 They were 4/5 all week and then went 4/7 Friday. They may have gone 4/11but were not near it during the week. RHF (Cavan) - Posts: 847 - 28/01/2018 12:14:44 2071301 Link 0 |
The odds obviously changed when the team was known, a bit like the last round of the McKenna Cup. kildare blue (Cavan) - Posts: 578 - 28/01/2018 14:12:21 2071324 Link 0 |
Delighted to say I put a tonne on the draw.good start to the year (for my bank balance anyway). Not convinced by the management so far.think he just throws darts at the list of players in the squad and that's how he decides his starting lineup.

If you are the type of fella that bets a tonne on a draw in gaa I'm guessing the bookies love to see you coming.

I like to start the year with a few big bets.after that I keep it small just for bit of interest .ive also put a bet on the team I feel will win the county championship and it's not the reigning champions although they were super impressive last year.heard there's bit of trouble in the camp.hard to keep such a talented squad happy.

Good point with a young team up against a very physical Clare team in tough playing conditions. Really struggled in midfield first half to get meaningful possession and what we did get we lacked composure at times. Our shot and pass selection was very bad when opportunities arose- some will say we were lucky to be still in it at half time but we gifted them a goal and spurned 3 or 4 decent attacks. A bit of composure and we would have been well in it. Hardtimes (Cavan) - Posts: 1056 - 28/01/2018 17:11:46 2071410 Link 0 |
Lad, cavan lorded primary possession from kick outs in midfield in first half, Clarke dominated Brennan. Dont know what you are on about. The problem was no final product and ball kept coming back from our forwards who couldn't make any inroads. Most primary possession won by Clare was due to bad kick outs. The only purple patch Clare had in midfield was the first 10 minutes of 2nd half.

I didn't think we lorded possession at all. Thought we got caught in possession and turned over too often. Clare looked more physical. Hardtimes (Cavan) - Posts: 1056 - 28/01/2018 17:51:35 2071443 Link 0 |
I did travel to Ennis yesterday to watch the game. We got away with a point from that game. Any point away from home will be hard earned. You didn't know what to expect from the Cavan team. Some crazy mistakes were made when we were in possession. Handed back to Clare and got punished. We currently are missing players in vital positions on the field of play. Can anyone on here name me 15 players from the Senior Div. 1 Clubs in the county that would be fit to wear the county jersey? What is wrong within the county? It's no disgrace to the current team of lads!!!! I heard the same old story from Cavan followers at the game yesterday. Very worrying times ahead for our Senior County Team.... upandcomingblue (Cavan) - Posts: 37 - 28/01/2018 17:54:45 2071446 Link 0 |
We'll take the draw lads. I couldn't make it in the end but listened to it and I didn't get the impression that it was anything but a snatch and grab from our lads. Credit where it is due. It seems Mackey had a very positive impact and I guess he was our second highest scorer (with only 2 points from play) after Caomhin and he only came on in the second half! That is worrying.

Enlighten us with your bet for the senior championship...I can tell you now, if you put your money on any team aside from the current champions, you'll lose your money. As for the camp, there's nothing but harmony in the camp - there was a full turn out for training on Christmas Day...how many clubs did that? cavanblueman (Cavan) - Posts: 636 - 29/01/2018 10:44:32 2071812 Link 0 |
What Gaels lads are we talking about? Do you know who has been asked? Do you know who have declined? Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 29/01/2018 11:00:45 2071819 Link 0 |
I presume Niall Murray is still on panel.

Well one of the players of the year from last year wasnt asked in at all. Sure Cavan have the best players available according to Mattie and D Mc Veety...... This is not the case however.

I was told that there are 3 gaels lads on the panel and now training. That one guy hasn't come back and might come back later in the year (I bet you can guess who that is!!). fredflint (Cavan) - Posts: 1483 - 29/01/2018 12:39:37 2071893 Link 0 |
