About 24/25
The final will be something.
Please God itâs fixed for Thurles and Fergal Horgan refs it.
It canât be Johnny Murphy at least
Liam English was excellent again
Dan Joy won a lot of dirty ball
I do like Houlihan and think heâs a super club hurler, and heâs game but heâs behind his own teammate OâReilly in the queue for the panel. Heâd also be behind English, OâDonovan, AOC for me. Thereâs some queue of fellas to get onto the 36.
Wasnât OOR only used corner forward before? Looks a live option as a sub for half forward now. Currently David Reidy is first in line there. Houlihan surely not far off that level either.
I feel POD is too light at the moment to get near Kielyâs squad
Really strong full back line. Theyâll need to up it again to limit the production of Ballygunnerâs forwards
Well then the best place for him is inside with them surely??
Heâs not, and he can take the frees too, so is in direct opposition to Reidy.
Great Avatar
Not my own work unfortunately.
Some good stuff. Does all codes.
An awful prick that lad
Frank Costello wasnât starting for Adare this year, be a bit harsh to have him ahead of the players that actually did start. Largely seems fine, although by including extended panellists, the City team becomes way stronger.
South looks very strong too. How is DOS getting on these days with the Bouncers? He was always a bright prospect.
Cremin didnât start for NCW either, he seems to have just thrown down former county minors for the West side.
Boyce in Feenagh wouldnât be near it anyway.
If I was to have a go, excluding players on the current panel and anybody born before 1995.
Definitely left out a few obvious ones but shur⌠the East side looks very strong, youâd make them favourites.

Havenât seen many west teams this year and really sure of the ages of some of the fellas from Knockaderry, Tour, Feohanagh. As far as I know, most of their big players are older lads.
