Itās a pity that some counties are now dependent on big money sponsors to try and buy success.
They should have focused on developing a top class academy system like Limerick.

Jesus that one will be like a dagger to some fellas on here.
Thatās a fantastic point.
I wonder why no other county has followed the Limerick model?
Arrogance?
Nickyās sister is married out in Ballygunner his nephew hurls for the Gunners
A South Tipp manager
Give it to Maher to fuck and let him bring his own backroom team inā¦
Brendan can cut his teeth with the U20ās with a view to stepping up again in three years.
Iām not at all against Cummins in a Senior management position but he hasnāt the apprenticeship served like Willie has.
Cummins probably seen as more sponsor friendly though which I fear is the Co Boards main 
in choosing the new Manager.

Agree with you fully.
If Maher doesnāt get it now, he will never get it
Kerry couldnāt get rid of Cummins quick enough. Heād be a disaster at the top job. Hopefully Maher gets it now. Although the county board could do anything.

Willie Maher is an Eamon OShea/Declan Ryan type of appointment.Add Gleeson to that.
Ye boys have missed out on the real McCoy.And I donāt have to say who that was.
And as ye lads would say down in Tippā¦āDats Riteā
Cummins profile might see him over the line here, didnāt even realise he was in the running. Whoever gets it now is on a hiding to nothing imo and is only keeping the seat warm for the fella taking it on in a year or twoās time.
Only Nicky can save us.

Hilarious as it sounds in your head, if heās manager he will do fuck all coaching bar a bit with keepers at most.
Managers are front of house guys now. Delegate and keep a watchful eye on the organisation. Motivate the players & keep supporters onside.
I canāt fathom how Wexford Gaa are taking a gamble on Egan at this stage in their development.
How many selectors come managers go on to win L McCarthy? John Allen & Mick Church obvious ones, after that?
Lads whoāve struggled, Bonnar, Eamon OāShea, TJ Ryan, all the lads who followed Big Jim McGuinness etc.
Wish Egan well but itās a huge ask there for him imo.

All reports from Kerry regarding Cummins are desperate as @Declan_Moffat says. He actually worsened OāConnorās management team when he was introduced.
If he is to take over and OāConnor is to join him the CB need to get a Tommy Dunne/Ken Dunne/ Declan Fanning (quality coach) to join them to make sure the u20 ship doesnāt sink.
Itās Willie mahers time for the top job, he clearly had aspirations for it so itās time to step up.
Really, I didnāt know that
