Replying To JimmyNail:  "Made a decent effort in the second half for 20 minutes to get back within 2 points but kildare gradually took control again their running power exposed gaps in our defence far too often. Hopefully we can get a win next weekend far from certain but that's probably as far as we're going"
Great to see Mark Plunkett back to form with 3 PTS yesterday.We can definitely make a semi final with the right draw

Replying To Leitrimforliam:  "Below are my league predictions for this year:

Division 1
1. St Marys
2. Fenagh

Winners: St Mary's
Relegated: Leitrim Gaels & Carrigallen

Division 2
1. Manor
2. Gortletteragh

Winners: Manor
Relegated: Aughnasheelin & Kiltubrid

Division 3
1. Aughavas
2. Dromahair

Winners: Dromahair"
Glad to see the club league being discussed should be a great league this year. Div 2 and 3 I feel could throw up some lively games.

Div 1 Fenagh, Carrick, Carrick to win
Last years promotions Allen Gaels and Carrigallen relegated, Leitrim Gaels should still have enough to hold

Div 2
Manor Melvin Gaels final, Manor win
Aughnasheelin relegated but hard to call another, annaduff and kiltubrid a big one next weekend

Div 3
Agree with you Dromahair Aughavas Final, but disagree with the winner, Aughavas bet Dromahair by 10 in the opener!

Cloone could challenge if they get a bounce too

Wicklow it is next weekend toughest of the potential draws in my opinion only lost to kildare by a point and laois also. Will need to be at our best to have a chance.

Wicklow the toughest draw we could have got. But a win over them would set us up nicely.

It's exactly the right draw for us - removes any form of complacency. Of course they're a serious outfit and are deserving of every respect. We've been at or about their level now for many years and Coach Moran may remind his charges than any silly indiscretions within 50m range will be punished by their goalie Mark Jackson.

Of course we're entitled to a shot of optimism but we'll earn it the hard way with Wicklow who are no mugs.

Feckin Wicklow. Worst possible draw. Waterford not qualifying from our group made it more likely not to draw London or New York. Tipp are in bother lately too and would have been a good draw. But Wicklow are resurgent since their League relegation. It's gonna be tough. Feckin Wicklow.
