Replying To Fionn:  "Managers and coaches take up positions with other counties all the time.
Some are more travelled than others.
I have no great issue with it tbh.
Par for the course.

I would be more concerned with clubs in Dublin inviting/taking in or having inter county imports on their starting team."
Hasn't Gilroy denied that rumour?

He distanced himself from the rumours alright so let's see what happens.

If Armagh do get him, he would be a major asset to them.
Pat got the Dublin juggernaut going back in 2011…

Yes I know but for me Gilroy is a little different given he was arguably the brains behind the whole resurgence in Dublin. And while someone mentions Jayo & Ger going to other counties to earn their stripes this is a completely different situation given the sheer wealth of experience Gilroy has. He is on a completely different level to arguably anyone else that we have had involved in Dublin football aside from Jim Gavin I would argue.

Anyway he has refuted the rumours last night so hopefully nothing in it ;)

Pat was defo the mastermind behind the Dubs success alright. And a different level to the others that were mentioned above.

I just read that Ger Brennan gave competitive game time to 60 different players in 2026.
Now it has been said that he is monitoring 50 potential newbies, who include 42 players from this year's club championships, as well as 8 members of Jonny Cooper's U-20 panel, and all will be given an opportunity to impress over the coming weeks.
There were 39 players on last year's Championship panel, with only CK retiring in advance of next season.
I am expecting to see a lot of new face throughout our league campaign.
