Replying To sleater: "Anyone want to take a punt on what the starting 15 will be on Saturday against Cavan?
IMO , it's very hard to predict, given it's a new manager and the raft of players given match time during recent challenge games. I do think Bannigan will start Sean Jones and Andrew Woods. McAnespie is fit and flying. Think it will be between McCarron, Mooney and Garland for the other corner forward slot. One corner back slot will be up for grabs as a couple of half back positions. Midfield, I reckon Bannigan will opt for his club colleague Wilson to partner Mohan, though I would prefer McBennett. Possibly 1 or two league debutants starting with another couple coming in from the bench.
How about this starting 15? (but no doubt I'll be wildly wrong)
Rory Beggan Ryan Wylie Killian Lavelle Ronan Boyle Ciaran McNulty Kieran Duffy Conor McCarthy Gary Mohan Joel Wilson Ryan McAnespie Michael Bannigan Stephen O'Hanlon Stephen Mooney Andrew Woods Sean Jones" I'd be surprised if McBennett didn't get a start. I thought he was one of the successes of last year. Time will tell.

Beggan Wylie, Lavelle, Boyle McAnespie, Duffy, McCarthy Mohan, Mcbennett Bannigan, O'Hanlon, Hamill Garland, Woods, Jones
Shifting mcanespie back gives room for hamill - both impressed in the mayo game...uve also got scotstown trio jack, o'toole and mccarville and despite what anyone else thinks theres plenty of capability there too

Mooney (and some others) a far better choice ! Is Jack available for league ? Has the full panel been announced for the league ?

Mooney an excellent player - Id love to see him start too but I threw in Garland for his frees. I just think he'll start too...Also Im not sure how many real chances he's actually gotten so go easy on the criticism
