the automatic choice for full back is Kieran Ryan St Eunans

Lads forget Kieran Ryan. In my opinion he is far too slow off the mark and no pace. From what Ive seen he doesnt have a great footballing head or is a great reader of the game either to make up for it. Hes lucky he has a good team around him at Eunans because if he was with Glenties, Ardara, Kilcar, etc would we even be talking about him?

jamie sweeney should be given a chance, a quaility full back and twice the player neil mc gee is, mc gee has too be the most overated player in the county in my opinion, he is a strong lad and a good club player but inter county football is a step too far!! give sweeney or ciaran ryan a chance they can do no worse.

1 durcan
2 neil mcgee
3 ray aweeney
4 AN OTHER
5 barry dunnion
6 eamon mcgee
7 kevin cassidy
8 neil gallagher
9 brendan boyle
10 AN OTHER
11 rory kavanagh
12 ciaran bonner
13 colm mcfadden
14 michael murphy
15 Brendan devenney

I think this is as good as we can hope for. there are a number of inclusions that i still wouldnt have great faith in but they're all we have. at best there r two places up for grabs and hopefully lacey will be back for one of them. devenney is still doing the business and deserves to b included, and with boyle back it allows casiidy and kavanagh to play in their favoured position, and thats a huge plus as they've suffered in recent seasons due to the lack of a genuine foil beside big neil

regardless of living in the uk or not it does not mean we know less about football. so dont be throwing this crap out that its "you soccer ones in the uk". thats just pathetic grow up. we are till busy over ere still involved in club football and gettin on with things unlike yourself messenger who probably has not seen a size 5 since the all ireland final on tv.

Yes we are the semi final against killalla of mayo. its just everyone at home has this mad opinion that english gaelic is muck and some teams are to be honest. but when they are still involved in championships at this stage they have to be a serious team which are going places. you wud have to agree. yes there are 8 donegal men on the panel of 25 players
1 Joe Donaghey burt
2 Conal Reddin Muff
3 Rocky Ivers Urris
5 Declan Noone Urris
6 William Carter Buncrana
7 Peter Walsh Ballintra ????
8 Conal Cunningham not sure

Willferral - I think Philip Duddy from Naomh Ultan is on that side aswell. What your man Rocky Ivors like now? Played against him about 4 years ago an I thought at that time he'd be one of the best midfielders in the county in a few years time.

sorry i forgot about him duddy is class he wud be close to some county panels at home. rocky is quality as well he scored a few excellent scores against monalvey in the quater final last weekend.

I am to understand that these divisional games has shown very little new talent
Indeed I believe it has exposed a St Eunans man for being what he is ie a fancy Dan

Tomsmith would you like to become a fancy dan? You seem to be fascinated with them.
