Looking at the under 17 squad there seems to be a mixture of a lot of players from different clubs...who will be the stand out ones do people feel??

Maybe none of the young lads in North Meath were good enough to get on the panel. Or maybe its discrimination. Or their clubs couldn;t be contacted. Or they all really want to play for Cavan or Louth. Or their mammy wouldn't let them go. Or they were out cutting corn or sillage. Or were not being paid enough.

Lots of possibilities.....I'll go with my first guess though!

yeah tommie rooney is a great shout ive seen him a bit and he's consistently brilliant,great heart looks like a young john mcdermott! will have tough competition in midfield from conor sheridan,jamie farrelly and darragh curran. looks to be a great panel when do they start? controversial managerial appointment

Thunderstruck and Michaels_lad.

I was only joking re North Meath minors. Apologies for any offence caused. If it had been the same comment re south Meath, I would have said they were busy washing their Dublin jerseys or had it been the west side of the county, they would have been busy bemoaning the fact they haven't developed thumbs yet.

Seamus Mattimoe from kells will probably be captain

Some very biased posts it has to be said about people from their own clubs , Tommy Rooney is a hard worker but not a great player god help us if he's the next John McDermott. And Seamus Mattimoe is a very good player but dont think he is captain material. The main players will be the players with experience from last year along with Ciaran Fitzsimons

should be several o'mahony's lads as on that as the majority of their minor winning team from this year are minor again next year!

i can see an all ireland winnin team in next years minors ratoath will dominate squad numbers but also theres a lot of lads from north meath that stand out at that age, farrelly from oldcastle, i think theres 1 or 2 from kells too. 6 or 7 from last years minors are still able to play this year, i dont know any under 16's who will get on nxt yrs minors? they always bring a few lads to get them used to playin at minor level

hoganstandboy19
as i said will dominate squad number, only 3 will be o brien mcgill and mcmahon starting or even playin in the championship at all. along with cathal smith from o mahonies, thomas cox o mahonies , conor sheridan stown, david donnellan walterstwon , and young farrelly from oldcastle after that places are anybodies

agree completely with you there that is a serious starting team before anybody else comes into the frame...could be a good year if management chooses the right lads
