Replying To MonGaa123:  "Both toome and eire og have been up and down to intermediate but I wouldn't say they are competing. They are up and straight back down with a few hammerings along the way."
With the exception of last year Toome have generally competed well in intermediate over that time period. Think they reached 3 intermediate semi finals over that 10 year period.

Atleast these teams are able to get up out of Junior, I'd be more worried about the clubs who are stuck in Junior, intermediate be more competitive next year with 12 in Senior so will be interesting to see how it plays out

I don't think David Hanley or Jamie Mooney would be near the Clontibret team

Replying To 222:  "Your a bit harsh on toome there, themselves and blackhill I don't even know if they have juveniles but they have a decent 10 12 years there, up and down to intermiedate and competing at that grade in fairness to them."
Was at Toome v Oram game yesterday evening very poor quality game when Toome were missing wilson the 2 mc mahons and Frank Connolly they where always gonna struggle. Teams like Blackhill and Toome probably are working of smaller panels than anyone in monaghan and have had success over the last 10 years while other alot bigger clubs in Junior have been struggling so credit to them both

Good start to the senior championship with only a 1 point margin across 2 games. Carrick Scotstown will be emotionally charged for good reason, hope its a competitive encounter but hard to see. Inniskeen should lay down a marker too.

Scotstowns 5th team HAMMERED Rock and Truaghs 3rd team beat Killeevan. Would love to get junior clubs opinions on these teams in the competition. They will deny some club a semi or final spot which in my own opinion isn't right
