    Mother of God! There's another round of club games next weekend, where Derek can attend and analyse players. Dan was at a number of games this weekend. Derek watched our likely opponents and can watch club games next weekend. Surely that's getting the best of both!

    You are living in the dark ages, intercounty managers know their squads by now and have had winter cup competitions, the league, training sessions, Fitzgibbon to decide who they need. Focus now is in getting squads ready for championship. It's good that club matches are happening but inter county managers are not depending on club matches at this time of the year for players to "come into the fore". Applies in every county, football and hurling. Maybe back in the 60's and 70's when training only started a few weeks before championship that applied.

    He was at games Saturday and I think the chance to see Tipp going full pelt in a match makes him right to go see them on Sunday. Also if suddenly new fellas were brought straight into panel after having a good game in first round of championship you would on here saying it was a sign of desperation bringing new players in so close to championship. Of course new players can come to the fore and I'm sure with all the back room team they have,every game was watched but at this stage it would have to take an unbelievable performance in my opinion to get onto championship panel now. Last years club championship and 3rd level competitions at start of year are when fellas should be scouted for this year. Have good club championship this year and get your intercounty chance next year. I also feel your putting down alot of great players and managers by questioning there mentality since 1959.

    McGrath should not have been at it, he should have gone to the fourmilewater post match day debriefing!

    Look he should be in the two places at once - we will never win an all ireland until he masters the art of bi-location

    Oh? I heard it was a 200 year contract with a 10billion buy out clause, but I could be wrong I suppose.

    If Derek doesn't get it, he should go to the courts n drag culbaire with him.

    It was nice to see the U17s get a positive result against Clare after the walloping the minors got..

    Granted i do realise all the best U17s are playing minor this year anyway so not much can be read into it.

    Derek knows all. He is God. Waterford won an All Ireland senior title in 1959 and contested the 1957 All Ireland Final, playing hurling as it should be played!

    Sarcasm: The refuge of the shallow mind! Apologists for Derek McGrath out in force in recent days. Face facts. He has no interest in the club championships. Showed that yesterday!
