I watched the game and Spillane was excellent midfield. Very mobile. Good jumper and great link play. Also he kicked 3 great points. Deserved MOTM.However he could nt get on Templenoe s starting team. Strange but that was as a forward so maybe more suited to midfield. Jack Maguire very solid at full back also and another Kerryman FF for St judes David Mannix (former Stacks) did well too. Pity to be losing some very good players to Dublin clubs. I had wondered where Mannix was gone. He was a very good club forward and a man who used to pull up his socks up so high that I reckon he could have tucked them into the elastic of his jocks. Always entertaining when you played stacks that you’d not see a millimetre of his leg |

And I saw another Listowel lad give a man of the match performance for clonakilty in cork quarter final last Sunday week, Joe grimes. Wouldn't surprise me to see him on cork panel with way he's playing |

Likewise the Maguires, Sheehy, Conor Cox etc - a lot of talent being exported and it's a killer. Same for most clubs, I suppose. |

Likewise the Maguires, Sheehy, Conor Cox etc - a lot of talent being exported and it's a killer. Same for most clubs, I suppose. Is it a coincidence we are only hearing of losses by Listowel? - is this relevant to Fitzy's study on NK football, or is it just a case of migration to Dublin for work that has fellas playing there? WFH (Working From Home) might reverse this a bit, but how much remains to be seen. I would imagine that fellas are more likely to transfer the further the commute, and Mayo would have suffered in this respect. Wasn't there an interview with was it Maguire and he detailed the hours travelling and given how high the bar now is and the consequent commitment required, it is nearly impossible to play for your native club. Reminds of MOM training half the 70s/80's team who were Dublin based, I think they made it down once at the weekend and I also recall MOM saying he wasn't a may for over exertion in training, he said he liked lads to be 'fresh' for their games, like his greyhounds! Funny, or not, but Vincent O'Brien had a similar view with horses, flat ones - he believed there was only so many top performances in a nag so best to save them for the racecourse - now over to our sports scientists! |

Ya, I read that some where as well as a Saturday night clash with Mayo, but for the life of me I can't remember where I read it? Think it was Twitter but I've been checking my history and can't find either |

I am looking forward to it already. Kildare Monaghan and Armagh away are handy enough for me being based in Dublin.
A few nice weekend trips for the Home games.

Interesting fixtures. Tyrone at home again? 2 years in a row. Dublin in Tralee whets the appetite. We played Tyrone up in Edendork in 2020 |

I'd say if Jack was making out the fixtures himself, there's very little that he would have changed! Playing what should be the 4 strongest opponents at home and remaining 3 teams away, couldn't have asked for better. |

My understanding is that these fixtures are to be confirmed early next week. I've been making provisional bookings for the home matches as I'm in Meath. Here's hoping we get a good run at it next year.

As an aside, Kingdomboy do you ever look at your messages on this place? Myself and Horse were trying to contact you.

Thanks for posting this mg72, great to start making plans already as I'm based up the country.
All three away trips within easy reach and never been to Armagh for a game so will look forward to that one and seeing them up close.
Dublin and Mayo under lights in Tralee will be brilliant, the League in 2019 was something special with the same fixtures. The night of the Dublin game was like Stephens night or something, the town was hopping. You could feel something building with the team even at that early stage, alas ultimately the All Ireland slipped through our fingers.
God I just hope we get to have a proper League campaign with supporters being allowed to attend. 'High Plataea', King Tony telling us things are on a knife edge and now an Omicron variant out of the savannahs of Botswana. Feeling very low today, wondering if we will ever get out of this.

Wanted to avoid the Toy Show last night so ended up going through the Sky box, deleted or watched stuff sitting on it a while. I re-watched the Tyrone matches from the League & semi this year, talk about chalk and cheese. Had a quick look down through the forum posts for the league match this morning. We were all very positive and skipping to an AI Final based on a match played when Tyrone it seemed to me didn't appear to be trying.
Jason McGahan was lauded for the S&C job he'd done with the team, fast forward to August and the lads were dropping like flies with cramp.
So here we are facing into a new campaign with a new (old) manager and pinning our hopes on the return of Sam in 2022. I dearly hope we will get to enjoy matches as we used to pre Covid. I hope to see some of you on the road and indeed to return to Croke Park in the new year. I normally do my look back between Christmas and New Year but this week it seemed like a lot of things were finishing up, talking to friends it seemed like we're all worn out with the drudgery of Covid and all it's consequences.

Tyrone was a strange one, the walk in the park and the Covid - still they won and now the question is can we, or indeed others, turn them over? They will improve and doing back to backs is probably their target. Though I don't like mentioning gambling, what I can't understand is they being considered such outsiders. What am I missing I wonder - it is theirs to lose? |

Cavan could have beaten Tyrone. Donegal probably should have.
But once Tyrone hit Croker for the Ulster final they were a much better team. Any better they got.
Mickey Hartes team was the same too.
They are vulnerable playing in the Ulster venues.

I was just thinking with this swanky multi-hundred million redevelopment the walk down to Pairc will never be the same again! As long as they build a pub a little closer to the ground for the last pitstop I'm all for it  |

The last time we were up in Armagh Darren O Sullivan knocked out their keeper with a shot at goal. Hit him square in the puss and his cap flew off. |

I don't know if this has been posted before but here's next year's master schedule.
Based on this, we'll be playing Cork sometimes between 16th of April and the 14/15th of May (assuming 2 weeks between Munster SF and Munster Final on the 28th May)

There has been a bit of talk around Jack putting together his initial panel. Does anyone know what new players are involved and if there’s any one who was on the panel excluded?
