Replying To sourmilk93: "Where did posters expect the scores to come from with the 15 named to face Monaghan
We have got very little from the selected 1-9 all year.
The 6 forwards were Ruane- A workhorse who on a good day can contribute 2-3 points- Scored 3 points in fairness to him D Cregg- Not in the form he was in earlier this year- Scored 3 points Neary- A defender- Didnt score, Not his job tbf Murtagh- Scored 4P, Was always going to be tightly marked too when Enda was missing. D Heneghan- More a goal scorer and was always going to be tightly marked when Enda wasn't fit for the game. Got 1P R Heneghan- I was baffled by his selection again. Scored 1-1 in the previous 3 games, Scoreless against Monaghan"
Not near enough return for the front 6. Also scores from the half backline and midfield seemed to completely dry up against Tyrone and Monaghan. Saying that I think Kerry got all their scores from their forwards at the weekend and Mayo similar bar one from Carney. So not necessary as long as you are getting chances for your best shooters. Hopefully Ben O'Carroll can get his form back and be in the mix next year and the likes of Colleran and McGinley can put pressure on the more established lads as well.
