Replying To BadgerDog:  "All well and good listing off loads of players but realistically a lot of them aren't actually good enough to play at senior county level. Not going to single lads out and name them but from that list at least 8 or 9 not good enough.
You have to think as well are these lads actually going to be as good as or better than what is currently there and there aren't many from that list that are, maybe 5 or 6."
Agreed,

I would say 5/6 max of that group are potentially good enough, some are but have probably missed the boat in terms of S&C etc over the past number of years. And would need to be in the setup for 2 years minimum to get up to the required level.

They certainly had. Though some on the list had a very tenuous link to this years panel. Its very easy to print off a list of names...!

By that logic, Luke is too old too so.

Replying To WestmeathGael1:  "He was in the stands for the Moate and Athlone game anyways, although some people were saying he was also in looking at Reilly and McCabe in the match before hand. Would be a blow to the hurlers if they were to switch codes"
Seemingly, the cruciate curse has hit two players in CTG, so if he loses another two, Kevin O'Brien could be in big trouble.
