Any thoughts on a starting 15? Almost no read on who is available although there is some talk now of McCarthy and Lavelle togging out. McCarville? Hard to see how they could drop straight into a championship lineup If they were ready to go it would look ok at: R Beggan D Treanor K Lavelle D Byrne A Carey L Kelly R O'Toole M McCarville K Gallagher C McCarthy D Ward M Bannigan D Garland A Woods S O'Hanlon Eddie the Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 1301 - 14/04/2026 15:15:18 2666402 Link
Mc carthy, lavelle, Dylan Byrne, Louis Kelly, Ryan McAnespie, Bobby McCaul and Gary Mohan are back in contention for this weekend. However, Michael Hamill will definitely miss the game. Emyvale clubman Hamill has a knee injury Bannigan described as "worse than a cruciate". He could return for the All-Ireland series but will miss the Ulster campaign. Article up yesterday. monaghanfootballfan (Monaghan) - Posts: 10 - 14/04/2026 16:34:42 2666418 Link

Biggest concern is when was our last good performance in clones? Clare give us a good rattle last year there too. monaghanfootballfan (Monaghan) - Posts: 10 - 14/04/2026 17:10:59 2666426 Link
