Replying To Afinestick: "I think missing those players McGovern and Flood included we will need to pick our best team available to compete with Galway. Id go with Lawlor , Devitt, Ryan, S Reck, Carty, D Reck, Donohoe, R Lawlor, Dee, Mcguckin, Dwyer, Hearne , Ross Banville, Mac, CByrne Dunbar or Pepper We are going to have to be very smart in possession and not lump ball down on our half forward line or Galway will swallow us up." Think McGovern and Flood are available but don't know if either are up to speed in terms of realistically starting, Joe O'Connor another option too.

I think in an ideal world, we would have the starting XV planned out for each game in the league prior to the first game. That way we could every one a chance and help us to decide who to pick come Championship time.
15 starting spots for each game x 5 games = 75 total starting spots
Lawlor and Fanning would split 5 between them
Liam Ryan, Damien Reck, and Conor Mc would probably be essential so would start 4/5 games
Could rotate the two starting corner-back spots between Shane Reck, Simon Donohoe, Conor Devitt, and Conor Firman
Could rotate the two starting wing-back spots between Conor Foley, Ian Carty, Simon Donohoe, Matthew O'Hanlon, maybe Gavin Bailey as well
In midfield, you'd be mixing and matching between Dee, Liam Óg, Richie Lawlor, Conor Hearne, Charlie McGuckin, and Kevin Foley
Could have the last five named above competing for spots in the half-forward line along with Chin, Jacko, Ross Banville, Oisín Foley, and Connal Flood
Could rotate the corner-forward spots between Rory, Corey Byrne-Dunbar, Mikie Dwyer, Oisín Pepper, and Cathal Dunbar
Think I have 28 players listed above there (26 outside of the two goalkeepers). 70 spots available for outfielders so would work out at most players starting either 2/3 games. I think that'd be ideal really, some of the older players already have enough experience behind them so don't exactly need the matches whereas some of the younger lads mightn't be quite ready enough to start 4/5 games in the league. As long as we don't get relegated and as long as we blood in players, I'll be fairly content with the league.

Think you have covered everyone who will be pushing for championship places.

Heard Richie Lawlor broke his foot last night in the college game. Big loss if true as he was giving us something different in midfield.

Might be worth trying other lads in the other 3 positions for a game or 2 in case Ryan, Damien Reck or Mac get injured during the Championship though. Maybe try MOH at fullback for a game or 2, Carty at centreback. Conor Foley played cwntreback for the u20s and did well midfield for his club also. Would be inclined to leave him, Pepper and Byrne Dunbar with the u20s come championship unless they get rid of that stupid rule though.

Hopefully he can get back for championship, depends on how bad the break is.

Think that's the third time he's had this issue in the last few years. Desperately unlucky for him coming when he was hurling so well and looking like he had the potential to be a starter come championship. He was back from previous injuries within 6/8 weeks so he could play a role for us yet this summer

I feel we are very light on players for this fixture
No Paudie Foley or Rory O Connor or Richie Lalor
No sign of Hanlon, Oisin Foley, Liam Og, Connal Flood or Jack O Connor so far this year.
Chin seems injured. We've barely seen Kevin Foley or Fanning and both looked very rusty.
No free taker
People I was excited to step up to senior this year such as Cian Byrne, Cian Molloy and AJ Redmond havent made any appearance so far
I dont see why the panel seems in such a state before the start of the league with regard to available players. Literally no idea what team will be named tonight.
I am completely in favour of only building for the championship this year and uncovering as much talent as possible but the list of unavailable players is alarming since the club championship has been over for 6 months

All looked a little rusty though. MOH is carrying a slight knock. Cian Byrne was only on the pitch a few minutes against Waterford but got sent off in what was a pretty dirty game. I'm not sure Cian Molloy was ever in the panel or if AJ Redmond is still in it. Fanning played a whole Walsh Cup game as did Jacko. We have plenty of players fit for the game though!!!!

Great opportunity for Conor foley to impress. Are u20's still ineligible to play this year if they play senior championship? No recognised free taker with chin injured and Ross banville only a sub(understandable decision with his fitzgibbon cup duties). That would be a concern

Outside or Mac though, who is going to keep the scoreboard ticking over?
That would be my main worry, but listen let's see how they go.
I wish them the very best of luck anyway.
