My opinion on the teams: Clooney/Quinn - Would be a big shock to them, they've put a lot of work in the last few years, wouldn't be down for long I'd say. Kilmaley - I think they made the play offs every year in the 00s, the loss of Lynch and Clancy to them has been huge. They could stay down for a while if they go down, they are waiting on their minors to come through. Tulla - of the 3 senior teams probably the most likely to go down, don't know if they'd come back up quickly either. Broadford - Don't know much about them to be honest, but I get the impression that Senior B is probably their level. Doora/Barefield - Great example of a mis-managed club with over reliance on a specific group of players. Will probably drop down. Whitegate - Again, don't know much about them, but I get the impression that Senior B is probably their level. Wolfe Tones

By all accounts they fancy taking on anyone. Feeling pretty good, will have o donnell back from injury and a few others from j1 visas.
