What will the minors be like next year?. I hope they have a better championship next year and maybe league, good luck lads.

I was at the under 17 tournament below in Kerry a few weeks ago, which Mayo won. And the stand out player by far in my opinion and many others who attended the game was Haran lad from Crossmolina. His work ethic was a joy to behold and he must have the sweetest left foot that I've seen in underage football for a very long time. His shooting ability was magnificent and his vision for his team mates was outstanding. Also his ability to shrug off the opposition players was amazing. It reminded me of Aidan O shea in his minor years.

days iv ever seen him play he was on his bad day and i have seen him play a few times but never for the under 17 squad so i may be rong. i also believe that him self and darren duffy had a great year when they were under 14 and i just wonder is the name he got bak then going to get him on the minor team

sweet and all as his left foot might be, he's a long way short of true minor talent in my opinion...will probably make the panel but will have to struggle for a place...there are few very decent forwards coming through in that age group. Have seen very little from him the past 2 seasons...thats not to say he wont come back into it, and he is certainly the best they have in crossmolina.

mchugh is the best crossmolina have. hes a very hard worker and would preform well against the kerrys and tyrones in the later stages of the season

james quinn ballinrobe fantastic forward!!

here we go again... another year of posters praising players from their own clubs as if they were the greatest players to ever put on a pair of football boots!

Any taughts on a team.

Wel from south..stephen coen..thomas lawrence. Adam gallagher kevin lynch..is stagg still minor?..henelly from shrule..stephen morrin..what do ye think..?i think these are real quality players..

There is 9 from last year:
Adam Gallgher
Shane Hennelly
Stephen Coen
Conor Byrne
Diarmuid O Connor
Sean Moran
David McHale
Ryan Coleman
Ryan Leonard

and stagg is over age.

Any U16S from last year gna make it?.did any1 watch the u16 championships dis year?any stand out players?

The young guy ye saw from Crossmolina was Ciaran MacDonald pretending he was under age! Will ye stop that rubbish..."I saw a young fella from such and such a club...what was his name? etc" We have been down that road before where ma, dad, brother, sister, girlfriend puts in "who was number 6 for ***** Club, Jesus he had a great game last Sunday". Its old hat now. Minors become great when they make it at seniors. We have had since 2001 four minor teams in AIFs and we still are looking for natural forwards, full backs and maybe a centre back so go easy on the "great minor". We have had them by the ton.... a few good seniors is what we want now.

Bejaysus on the road if McD is playing minor for us this year we might win it. At least he'll be on some mayo team anyway....

doherty from kilmaine!! also a guy 4rm balla called val roughneen..ny other suggestions guys??

Whats ur taughts on captins guys??? and mid-feald and half backs and half forwards key roles.

hennelly be good choice

hennelly or gallagher maybe

gallagher will be captain, hennellys attitude is poor, no doubting his ability though probably the most talented foward in the county at his age..

darren duffy will have to be the captain next year.

pooost94, aghamore man yeah? cant really say who will be a good captain until a few games are played surely?
