I wonder could somebody who is familiar with this grade post the team they feel Jack would select if all his players were available. It would be interesting to compare the two teams. Shane Ryan Brian Begley Cathal Long Tom Sullivan Matthew Flatherty Andrew Barry Cormac Coffey Barry Sullivan Marc o Connor Michael Burns Jack Savage Brian o Seannachain Conor Keane Eanna Connor Tony Brosnan That's just a general guess given who's out with Rob Sé and Liam Carey pushing to start too out of the injured players

I wonder could somebody who is familiar with this grade post the team they feel Jack would select if all his players were available. It would be interesting to compare the two teams. this is the minor team from 2013 - KERRY: Shane Ryan (Rathmore); Fionan Clifford (Waterville), Cathal Ó Luing (An Ghaeltacht), Pádraig Ó Conchúir (Dingle); Matthew Flaherty (Dingle), David Foran (St Senan’s), Sean T Dillon (St Senan’s); Greg Horan (Austin Stacks), Conor Jordan (Austin Stacks); Michéal Burns (Dr Crokes), Jack Savage (Kerins O’Rahilly’s), Éanna Ó Conchúír (An Ghaeltacht); Conor Keane (Legion), Shane O’Connor (John Mitchel’s), Killian Spillane (Templenoe). Subs: Darragh O’Shea (Ballydonoghue), Brian Sugrue (Renard), Kevin Shanahan (Ardfert), Kieran Murphy (Glenflesk), Tom O’Sullivan (Dingle), Tomás Ó Sé (An Ghaeltacht), Tony Brosnan (Dr Crokes), Barry O’Sullivan (Dingle), Joe O’Kelly (Austin Stacks). the following 12 were involved in both panels - Cathal Ó Lúing David Foran Greg Horan. Michéal Burns Jack Savage Éanna Ó Conchúír Killian Spillane Darragh O Shea Brian Sugrue Tom O’Sullivan Tony Brosnan Barry O’Sullivan i make that only 4 players from the starting team back then, are starting on Wednesday and 3 off the bench - thats a huge turnover. means 8 lads are starting that werent first choice 3 years ago for this league, also shows how many lads are missing.

Jack would obviously prefer not to have to call on some of last years minor winning squad but he knows these guys and has their trust; if we advance, Cormac Coffey and Barry O'Sullivan should be available in the latter stages of the Munster championship but injury will still keep Liam Kearney, Liam Carey & Mark O'Connor out.

Kerry triumph against Tipperary in 2013 Munster minor football final
The Kingdom won their first title in this grade since 2009.
Kerry 0-15 Tipperary 0-10
JACK SAVAGE KICKED 0-10 as Kerry defeated 14-man Tipperary in the Munster minor football championship final in Killarney this afternoon.
The Kingdom won their first title at this grade since 2009 with Kerins O’Rahilly’s player Savage leading the way from centre-forward.
Tipperary, chasing a third successive title at this grade, were hit by the sending-off of centre-forward Josh Keane before the interval.
The Premier stayed in the hunt thanks to captain Colin O’Riordan and his midfield partner Liam Casey who both shone as they kicked three points apiece.
Savage’s free-taking was central to Kerry building up a lead early on as he helped them move ahead by 0-5 to 0-2.
And inside attackers Killian Spillane, Shane O’Connor and Conor Keane all looked threatening as well for Mickey Ned O’Sullivan’s side as they moved ahead by 0-8 to 0-5 at the interval.
Tipperary started the second-half brilliantly and drew level at 0-8 apiece thanks to the efforts of Alan Tynan and Casey.
But Kerry took over in the final quarter with Savage pointing the way and goalkeeper Shane Ryan denied Tipperary net minder Jack Brady from the penalty spot in injury-time, as Kerry ran out victors by five points.
Referee James Bermingham red cards Josh Keane of Tipperary Pic: INPHO/James Crombie
Scorers for Kerry: Jack Savage 0-10 (0-8f), Conor Keane 0-2, Shane O’Connor, Killian Spillane, Michéal Burns 0-1 each. Scorers for Tipperary: Liam Casey, Alan Tynan (0-3f), Colin O’Riordan (0-1f) 0-3 each, Josh Keane 0-1 (0-1f).
KERRY: Shane Ryan (Rathmore); Fionan Clifford (Waterville), Cathal Ó Luing (An Ghaeltacht), Pádraig Ó Conchúir (Dingle); Matthew Flaherty (Dingle), David Foran (St Senan’s), Robert Wharton (Renard); Greg Horan (Austin Stacks), Conor Jordan (Austin Stacks); Michéal Burns (Dr Crokes), Jack Savage (Kerins O’Rahilly’s), Kevin Shanahan (Ardfert); Conor Keane (Legion), Shane O’Connor (John Mitchel’s), Killian Spillane (Templenoe).
Subs: Eanna O Conchúir (An Gaeltacht) for Shanahan, Brian Sugrue (Renard) for Flaherty, Tomás O Sé (An Gaeltacht) for O’Connor
TIPPERARY: Jack Brady (Ballina); Danny Owens (Moyle Rovers), Jimmy Feehan (Killenaule), Willie Connors (Kildangan); Luke Boland (Moyle Rovers), Ross Mulcahy (Moyle Rovers), Kevin Fahey (Clonmel Commercials); Liam Casey (Cahir), Colin O’Riordan (c, JK Brackens); Paul Shanahan (Upperchurch Drombane), Josh Keane (Golden Kilfeacle), Ciaran Lowry (Arravale Rovers); Alan Tynan (Inane Rovers), Tom Kirwan (Ardfinnan), Paul Maher (Kilsheelan).
Subs: Padraig Louram (Clonmel Commercials) for Shanahan, Stephen Quirke (Moyle Rovers) for Boland, Padraig White (Clonmel Commercials) for Kirwan, Michael Connolly (Clonmel Commercials) for Fahey

That team had Tyrone beaten with seconds to go in the semi final only to get caught working the ball out of defence.
Tyrone the final.
Tipps star man Colin ORiordan is now in Australia playing aussie rules.
Another of their key men is concentrating on hurling i understand.
Even though Jack is now playing with a full deck I expect Kerry to prevail. Mainly because its Jack!

If we could break 50/50 in the midfield area we will win this game comfortably. I have been to a few of the training sessions, the forwards are flying. The Crokes lads and Savage especially.
Jack Morgan is unavailable to the panel as he is sitting his Leaving Cert this year.
Is there joint captains this year with the two KOR boys. By reading it seems that way or else Savage Interim captain while Coffey is still recovering with injury.

Sure he was a starter last year- Coffey will only be captain if savage doesn't start

Was hoping to attend the U21 game on Wednesday but though I can take a bus from Newcastle West to Tralee there is no bus back to Newcastle West after the game. Does anyone know if there is a way to get back from Tralee to Newcastle West at that time?. You could catch a lift in the tipp bus with players!! Seriously though, there has to be people going back to tipp that way, throw it up on Twitter, you'd never know. It might be a bit dodgy if they dont get a result though. Thought about contacting Tipp supporters. Done that before when I was living in Belfast with the Down supporters bus. I think most GAA supporters are gallant enough that they would not mind the opposition supporters at, even after a loss, and I rarely encountered supporters gloating or sulking after a win/loss. Probably even more true for those making the extra effort to travel to minor and U21 games. Was hoping to see the game but if not I'm sure someone here will keep us updated. I suppose a possible Munster final v cork will be played in PUC or Fitzgerald stadium?

What's the story with Mathew Flaherty? Don't see him on the list of injured players - he was one of the 2014 minors that I felt would make a smooth transition onto the senior panel.

I heard that Tony Brosnan has broken a finger and may be unavailable tomorrow which in turn would more than likely see Killian Spillane come into the starting 15. Jordan Kiely was dropped as far as I am aware, I'm not sure that Jack has much time for Jordan but they do seem to be very strong in the forwards and he was supposedly not playing his best. Still a strong team considering how many we are missing. Best of luck to all involved.

Matthew Flaherty started wing forward last year and while he may have been out of his comfort zone playing here he was largely disappointing. He was a free man and failed to have any sort of an impact on the game. I do think that he is a fine player but not many players of his physique make a smooth transition onto the senior panel especially with the physicality now required. I am not sure what is his situation in terms of non selection or injury.

Tipps star man Colin ORiordan is now in Australia playing aussie rules. Another of their key men is concentrating on hurling i understand. I think it was before Tipp's first league game this year that I saw a thing that there was no player even available for selection for the Tipp football team from the Tipp winning minor football panel from 2011 between hurling (I think there are a fair few lads who have opted to go down the hurling route), Aussie rules, injuries and the fact that Clonmel Commercials were still in action in the club.

I would presume Savage was captain but reading this led me to believe the opposite. Both players started last year also. Fierce bad luck from Brosnan too if that is the case.

Is Brian Rayel injured or is he just not on the 24 Must just be outside the 24, heard he was playing well too so surprised by that.. Unusual that they didn't publish the players who are part of the panel, they usually do

Fingers crossed the U21's get a win tonight in Tralee. Level of expectation is all based on JOC being the man in charge but its the team on the field we need to support and focus on. Five of last years minors starting is a big ask and that is without Mark O Connor who was probably the top rated minor from last year.
