Replying To sleater:  "I think the starting line up won't be far off the above. Maybe McAnespie in the forwards for Carey. While I heard that all the injured players are back training, it's still very different to who is match fit for 70 minutes. Even Hamill is expected back for All Ireland Group stage games. Perhaps we'll get Mooney, McCaul, McCarthy, Lavelle on the bench? Hard to know to be honest. For a Monaghan /Cavan championship game it's the most lowkey build I can ever remember for it. I suppose that's a reflection of where both teams are at. Talking to some Cavan friends over the past few days, the mood isn't optimistic either form their standpoint."
There is no All Ireland Groups this year, its 8 losing finalists v 8 other All Ireland teams, with winners going into winners section and losers playing each other(losers of that game are out) 8 Provincial finalists get home advantage in that first round.

Replying To farneygael3:  "It was a hiding to nothing last night. Bar Cavans win over Tyrone it's been a poor year for them. They were leading by 8 last week in second half and Down secured a Draw. It'll be same this weekend for seniors, we have nothing to fear of the current Cavan crops. Well done to Neil McAdam and team, they have really turned it around this last 2 weeks in training."
You must not know that Paul O'Connor is the manager of the 20s not Neil McAdam

And you mustn't know what the players are saying. As I said, serious turnaround in training the last two weeks

Darren Hughes is making all the calls, that's directly from a players mouth who has credited him with the turnaround
