homerjay2005 wrote: » already posted my comments on the game on the main thread, am proud of how we played yesterday, it just was not to be. one thing that sadly cost us dearly was the introduction of Jack Sherwood. not sure if i would go as far as saying it was the decision that cost us the game, but its not far off it. it was pretty much like we played with 14 men when he came on. unfair on the lad to bring him in to a game like that. the game was level in the 69th minute, so i am not sure how you can say we died off. the reality is, our subs were not as good as theirs - that has nothing to do with dying out.

Declan O Sullivan missed a fairly handy point seconds before the goal. who knows what would have happened, had that been a point. the goal decided the game. small margins, but i refuse to believe that a team who was level in the last minute of the game and had a chance to go 1 point ahead seconds before the match deciding goal, was hanging on. i belive also we were essentially playing with 14 men such was the poor impact of Jack Sherwood, which then became 13 2 minutes into injury time.

All super players who have had fantastic careers but I can't see any of the above starting in the championship next year. Hope a few good young players emerge during the league. Management have much to think about over the winter.

Boom__Boom wrote: » I'd be shocked if Eoin Brosnan stayed on for another year. Odds are that he will be on the road with Crokes for a good while yet this year. Crokes are 1/4 to win Kerry and Munster is the softest province in terms of getting to the semi-finals, so chances are instead of having the winter off he will be training and playing. Really find it hard to imagine he will be back.

lukin wrote: » Damien Cahalane is a poor player IMO Aidan Walsh has not lived up to his potential and at this stage probably never will Colm O Neill; has to be doubts about his long term fitness after doing his cruciate three times in his career. Cadogan may not even be playing football this year. Shields is not a proper full-back, would be better in the half-back line Brian Hurley; not convinced about him; he was very poor v Dr. Crokes last Sunday
