The Official Cavan GAA Discussion thread.

I don't agree about that. If you hark back to our last competitive match in Breffni with a crowd, we played very naively against Clare in similar conditions (well, minus the hailstones). I remember Mickey Graham being fairly annoyed about that and he referenced it after the championship match against Monaghan about having to be patient when playing into a strong wind. We seemed content to hold Wexford off at arms length having done the hard work in the first half and it was mostly comfortable. Granted, Wexford are very poor and you wouldn't want to be that flat for 30 minutes against a decent team but it's the second game of the season.

In terms of the age profile, i think lots of players are well fit to play into their mid-30s. Gearoid has never looked better. The idea that as soon as you're past 30 that you might as well pack it in doesn't hold. If you're good enough, they should play. Martin Reilly is a brilliant example of that. He came on and looks a cut above.

But definitely against Carlow and Waterford we should be looking to get game time into the likes of Brady in goals.

Don't mean to be smart but I don't understand what you are disagreeing with? I said that Cavan chose to treat Wexford like a Division 1 or 2 team to develop tactics for games ahead and you refer back to a game two years ago against Division 2 opposition? I agree with you that Clare managed that game alot better than us that day but I don't understand what exactly you are disagreeing with in my post and what referring to the Clare game illustrates - there's a big difference between the quality of Clare and Wexford to be honest.

Anyone hear the review of the Wexford game on We Are Cavan? I slung out the hook and caught me a kipper!

Any word on Connor Brady’s injury status? Or ciaran the holla will he be back soon? Or Cian reilly? Anyone with any news of this?

Injuries just seem to follow him about i wouldn't be surprised if he isn't playing football in a few years.

Jordan Morris to Kingscourt transfer confirmed as per We Are Cavan.

I don't think he will but I've heard a few Meath people say they think it could happen due to a divide in the Meath camp between the North and South Meath factions. I'm sure he'll have the likes of Padraig Faulkner in his ear but Cavan would be a lot more attractive proposition if we weren't languishing in Division 4 whereas Meath are in Division 2. We might be in three next year alright but I can't see Meath, despite recent results, being relegated. They've played arguably the best two teams in that Division in Galway and Roscommon and should pick up a few wins in the last five games.

Important match for Cavan this weekend. This is a game which could shape our season. They'll be nothing easy about a McEntee managed Sligo in their own back garden. Hopefully we have as clean a bill of health as possible.

I'm assuming all the snow will have cleared by the morning, but will there be any talk of a pitch inspection? It's going to be wet, cold and wild and sometimes those conditions suit us. We have well conditioned players who are more than capable of rolling up their sleeves. Sligo giving Carlow an absolute shellacking is no bad thing as it will have us going up there giving them the respect they deserve. It will be a tight game, but I'm going to give it to Cavan by three. Sunday is the day we stick one in the net as well. :)

Can see this game been called off with yellow rain alert in Sligo until 4 tomorrow and all that's has fallen already.

Leitrim and London moved to the Dome in Mayo.

Yeah I see a few heading over tonight but I don't think they be to worried if its called off!

I’d be surprised if it goes ahead looking at the forecast.

Well Myles, any inside info for tomorrow’s game. Should I head for the train early in the morning or stay in the cot, content that the game won’t go ahead!!!

It's brutal weather in sligo at moment. Its a new pitch but I'm not sure it could take this sort of rain. If I hear anything in morning I'll stick it up here right away

Game is off

No big surprise

Looks like a March 4th or 5th refixture as it seems to be the only weekend available
