Templeport

They feel they're undervalued.

But the four that were nominated were Ian Ward from Arva, Cillian Brady from Gowna, Luke Maguire from Mullaghorn and Michael Devine from Templeport.

We could only go with three.

Yeah, it was one of those weeks.

The three we went for, Damien, one from the junior and two from the senior.

We went for Michael Devine from Templeport who was listed at 15 but I was at that game and he certainly played as a defender.

He put in some big hits and generally put himself about and showed his experience.

A very robust player on the tackle as well and did well for Templeport.

Okay, full backline nominations.

Brandon Keoghan-Den, Cillian Brady-Gowna, Ciarán McManus-Templeport, Conor Fahey-Templeport, Conor Maguire from Butler's Bridge, Dan Wharton from Cornufane, Dara Keegan from Bailioburra-Shamrocks, Fergal Quinn from Red Hills, Cillian Farley from Kingscourt Stars, Mark McGee from Knockbride, Ryan Coyle from Lackin, Shane Ryan from Killing Care and Luke Fortune from Cavan Gales.

We may have...

A tough job.

They're absolutely unbelievable athletes.

I picked one of them out last year in the Division 2 Under 16 final in Milltown, I covered that where they played Templeport, and he was brilliant.

Now, I get confused between Excel and exceedingly, but I'm not sure which of the lads it was, but a bridge man was telling me on the way out that day that they were afraid they might lose him to soccer, but you can see the quality there, like fantastic athletes, fantastic players, strong, the speed that boys have coming out of the fence, breaking up the field, exceptional, and There were no bad players on either team in that Division 1 final, I have to say.

I thought there were 30 very good players that started that game.
