Replying To Trump2020:  "What's the story with Jack Canning? I figure he should be around 25 years old now and looked like a good prospect a few years ago. Is he not good enough, injured, or just not interested?"
He played wing back v Antrim in the Walsh cup up in Louth back in January.

Didn't hear much after that.

Not sure if he was cut from the panel or just wasn't interested, but you'd imagine he would be good enough to be on the 26 man panel.

Replying To galway19:  "Much stronger minor team named for tomorrow. A lot of lads back from injury, most notably Stephen Keane, Jason Rabbitte and Vince Morgan. Still missing a couple of key players like Counihan and Fallon but id expect a more polished performance against Laois."
At this stage, I'll wait for a polished performance at u20/ u21 level, before i get excited.

You'll get that on Saturday week in Tullamore.

Laois can't be up to much given that they got murdered by a Kilkenny team who were a man down for over half the game.
Unless of course this is an exceptional Kilkenny team, I suppose we won't have to wait long to find out on both counts.

Seems strange. Maybe he picked up an injury.

Isn't he focusing on rugby? Apparently, he's very good at that game, and more power to him.
