If I was guessing, Charlie Keating, Tomas Kennedy from Strand Road, Ben Murphy and Daniel Kirby are four I'd be pencilled in... serious blows to the county cause.
When is enough enough...

He definitely is good enough just a matter of time. Did I hear he took a breather a year or two back - often a good idea, was he getting too much or was this just the usual rubbish? 10 years since Listowel wore G&G (Green & Gold) but sure that's the sporadic nature of things, of course you'd love more but nice to see Emmets back on top and that might impact the situation. Then again with this down under crack you never know - is Healy farming? Tadhgeen will be watching closely - gosh with 7 approached there is trouble down the road, reminds of Donaghy's 'What do you think of that Joe Brolly' moment? Funny if not so serious. Chairman Tatler suggests the GAA get paid for recruits and while that may be the only option, acknowledging it is recognising it and legitimises the practice, we are open for trading transfers, and that is only heading one way. Will it also upset players as they are effectively being sold? And then can they be forced to pay - I don't think they can, unless players have signed up to GAA and now we have the lawyers in the mix. Maybe Tatler has done his homework and is telling us the reality is that we are in a damage limitation situation? Worst for me is that once a lad shows promise the fear sets in and it becomes a wedge between the various parties, bearing in mind that a player is entitled to do what he wants here. Solutions on a postcard, etc and I don't think the postman's bag will be heavy.

Charlie Keating, Tomás Kennedy, Ben Murphy, Daniel Kirby, Luke Crowley, Killian Dennehy and Ronan Carroll are likely the 7 being referred to from what I’ve heard.
Ben Murphy is a cert to be offered a contract unfortunately.

t.co/OsX7lyD2eg7 more players contacted by the AFL in Kerry. Anyone any idea who they are? While it's easy to blame Kennelly for this it's not the only thing. In reality the CB have to take some of the blame. With the current management in place it's not hard to see why lads who are 19/20/21 wouldn't want to stick around. But of course their answer is form them to be paid for anyone who does go to AFL.

Sticking to script, project 25, to be fair I would only see one of those lads involved this year, which leads me to, who is in training, I assume collective training has commenced.
