There's realistically not that many county standard hurlers on LLG, they're a strong group with not many stand out players. Obviously the two Williams', Dan Higgins would be a shout but hasnt been involved for a while. Other than that I'm not sure who else

Can I ask who most unlucky to not get in ? Clarke from castletown . Did Luke deserve hurling place maybe especially in half forward line .

Replying To Iveagh:  "We are up against it Jobber for sure. I'm with Dheen. 3 + year rebuilding process. Focus on younger players see where it gets us . A few of the LLG and CTG players might be good to have as mature players at start but Manager must sure cast a wide net and look at giving others a shot. We might have to go lower to rise. Maybe I'm wrong. There are maybe not too many LLG players and maybe same for CTG that he might want."
Agreed but we will need some physical presence that some of these Gaels and CTG players can bring whilst the young players mature.After the many successes and failures of the last 20 years with 3 Christy Rings when it was tier 2 and a Joe Mcdonagh and countless finals championship and league it looks like we will hardly be contenders in 2A and survival in. Mcdonagh will be the name of the game. Does anyone know how is Dara Egerton, is he back training?
