Having gone to most of the league games I was pretty sure the squad depth thing was an illusion. Some of the chaps tried in the league were poor enough. Your man Harney who came on for the second half yesterday, did he hit a ball over the entire second half? The lad from Clonea, Dalton who got game time in the league never got a minute in the championship, nor did Kirwan from Kill who also got a couple of runs in the league.
Shane Bennett came on in most games and didn’t hit a ball. Montgomery wasn’t a huge upgrade on Kiely. I’d be better than Paidi Mahony at this stage, at least I might hit a fella a slap.
In reality the wheels came off the wagon when Iarflaith Daly got injured. We had no viable replacement. That’s fairly damning of our squad depth that the whole thing could come asunder because of a young lad in his second season
