The Official Cavan GAA Discussion thread.

There was a couple of Divisional teams about 15 years ago. Blackwater Gaels had a team. It was a bit of a shambles. They played junior championship thursday and with the amalgamation at the weekend.

The clubs probaly think it would be the same scenario again. If a chairman proposed playing junior first and left it open for divisional teams with a few weeks to prepare there would probaly be interest.

they did throw their lot in with swad for a year and it didn’t work out and like I said Templeport was a better fit for them it wasn’t about disrespecting anyone.

Didn’t seem to trouble them driving a bit further when they were in the Dernacrieve amalgamation.

Templeport aren’t exactly testing themselves at underage level either. They’ve teams littered with underage development players but their U16s started in Div 3 and their minors the same.

From what I’ve been told, they’d 4 on the Cavan minor panel (U17), three on the U16 panel and 4 on the U15 panel.

Cavstream mentioned a couple of times over the weekend that Fintan Reilly and then Seamus McCabe were in Breffni watching games and expected to be part of the setup.

Butlersbridge were cruising against Knockbride 4-9 to 9 pts. It ended up a draw.

and by the looks of the video of it doing the rounds, one of their club backroom team could be looking at a long suspension

I found the quality of it low over the weekend. Some dreadful shooting in the games I saw. Ballymachugh particularly poor & Lavey not much better Saturday evening.

Who are the bottom teams playing each other and avoiding relegation? Drumlane, Shercock and Drumgoon are all on 0 points but none play each other.

A brilliant player, even if it is at junior , that’s no barrier to playing for cavan as we’ve seen before, he definitely has the footballing ability to play for Cavan, the only doubt I’d have is if he has the ignorance/physicality? Could be wrong on that too, just an observation, but on footballing ability alone more than good enough to be in with Cavan

Bar possibly Lacken, who at the same time were a Division One side this year, I wouldn’t expect any of those clubs to be in threat of relegation from intermediate.

It hasn’t exactly done much good for Lavey, Lacken & Shercock hanging around the lower levels of Senior over the past few years.

It was a knockbride lad he got.

He has a child in the Cavan area and doesn’t drive. Therefore they may be able to work on getting him back. My understanding is he only went to Japan as the money was too good to turn down but it was only ever going to be temporary.

There is nothing that i have heard that he will possibly be coming back other than the chairman responding to a question when asked about him. A lot of talk coming out of the County Board in my view is just trying to let people hear what they want to hear and continue as normal.

1. Andre Quinn
2. McCabes role will be monitored ( like fcuk it will)

Quinn wont be kicking the ball over the bar. He will have teams in good shape like any performance coach, but and maybe less injuries. Though there was lots of knocks when he was there before. There was no improvement with underage results when he was there last

It’s the youth board running those. The GDM is setting up the regional competition for the U14s again and looking for coaches from the clubs so the whole process can be questionable again.

It does actually appear you are correct and the blitzs are being run by coaching and games. The U13 grading comp is the youth board.

No juvenile championship finals in Breffni. Who’d get more from playing in Breffni - a 13 or 14 year old playing in a final that may never play there again or a mid 30s club player in yet another boring group game?

It’s a bit ridiculous.
