Replying To mick2007: "It's not about one game, much bigger thing at play here, Every junior club stands to gain by this because it will hopefully waken and tighten up the rules around grading etc for many years to come…it's become farcical.. no 3rd team should be allowed near a junior championship…
The whole junior competition has been impacted by Monaghan county boards sheer refusal and incompetence to deal with this issue, this game took place on 7th August and hasn't been dealt with which is unbelievable at this stage so fault should firmly lie there…
It's aghabog that are the real losers here and got to feel for them…" Absolutely correct. It's the incompetence of the Monaghan governing body that is really being highlighted. Loopholes in transfer regulations, unaware of what rules actually apply to Junior championship....
No 2nd teams should be allowed in the Senior, Intermediate or Junior championships. Reserve league and championship is where these players who cant make the club's first 15 should be playing.They are reserve players. One club, one championship team. Let the smaller clubs have their chance for a bit of glory. As I've said before, it would be like Manchester City being allowed to put a "Junior team " into League 2 and boys moving between the first and second teams a la Scotstown and Truagh.
Fair play to Killeevan. They're showing a bit of fight for the junior clubs.
Other games will be won by:
Junior
Drumhowan
Oram
Scotstown ABC team
Senior
Inniskeen
Carrick
Latton
Magheracloone

What more can be said about the talented sisters. Truly amazing. Should be great Castlerea homecoming for the double European champions.

Replying To The_analyser: "Tomás Gilleran the new Roscommon U17 manager taking over from Shane Moran after two successful campaigns.
Tomás a St Dominic's man manged his own club to Intermediate county success in 2022 and has been a coach/selector as part of Cian Smith U20 management this year. Best of luck to Tomás as we look to keeping the conveyor belt going." We do indeed Analyser.
A 3 in a row Connacht SFCs would be the icing on the cake.
Best of luck to Tomás and the team and management .

Replying To brayballer: "ROD is a better tackler but Clifford a much better scorer..In my book the poty is over the year and young Clufford was much better.ROD probably more important to Mayo but Kerry have SOS and the older Clifford to do the tackling.ROD was very dull against Roscommon.For me Clifford poty.Also young Beirne fr Mayo young POTY. Kobe had a great year and the hype kept his name up but young Beirne was much better." I wouldn't have any issue with David Clifford winning it. He's exceptional.
My point is comparing O'Donoghue on scoring only is a fraction of the story. He does way more than that. He also scores plenty too.
ROD is a much much better tackler than D Clifford. He's elite at it. D Clifford would be one of the worst tackling top forwards in the game. He just doesn't do it.
ROD also carries much more ball from deep than D Clifford. As you said, he's also doing a Páidí Clifford role at times for Mayo.
ROD was the most important player for the All-Ireland champions and was excellent when it came to the most important games. He'd be a very worthy winner of Player of the Year, if he wins it.
I'd agree on Beirne for Young Footballer.

All very good points but the performance in the final has to carry significant weight in the judgement and in that respect Ryan was awesome, he was inspirational on the big day, bossing Kerry players all over the park and yes if this was "one off" maybe he would not deserve it but he has been very consistent.

They should think of moving quater finals and semi finals out of pairc sean and have them in cloone, mohill, drumshanbo or home advantage for the quarter finalists that finished higher in the group. Like in Mayo Garrymore v crossmolina was packed.

Dont see any games been played in drumshambo. Are they not allowing any games in there???
