I'd agree covid stopped the momentum that seemed to be building up. This season is the last roll of the dice for a few great servants of Roscommon football.

Agreed it's a shame McCormack is taking a year out this year as he had really established himself as a key player but best of luck to him and hope to see him back next year. Championship team if everyone was fit? 1. Carroll 2. Higgins 3. Stack 4. Conor Daly 5. Ronan Daly 6. Fallon 7. Fallon 8. Doyle 9. Nolan 10. E Smith 11. C Murtagh 12. Declan Kenny (I know hasn't played a minute yet but very impressed by him and I don't his energy could be useful with new rules. 13. Cregg 14. D Murtagh 15. O Carroll 16. Brady? Not sure what keepers are on panel with lavin gone 17. David Murray 18. Niall Daly 19. Senan Lambe 20. Paddy Gavin 21. Robbie Dolan 22. Shane Cunnane 23. Cian McKeon 24. Donie Smith 25 . Cox 26. Heneghan Light on options round middle third I could have left someone out there what do we think of that? Rossie2020 (Roscommon) - Posts: 176 - 11/01/2025 21:52:43 2585562 Link 0 |

You have Fallon playing in 2 positions?! Is this a new tactic by Davy? Seanfanbocht (Roscommon) - Posts: 2015 - 11/01/2025 23:28:13 2585574 Link 0 |

You have Fallon at both 6 and 7. He's a good player but not that good. I'd expect Cian McKeon to be a starter. Don't know about Doyle and Nolan being our midfield. Big men but would that partnership be mobile enough. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2307 - 12/01/2025 01:17:22 2585580 Link 0 |

Ultan Harney not on the panel this year? and didn't John McManus,Shane Killoran return.

Midfield will come down to the kickout strategy with the new rules. 2 big men might be necessary. The alternatives I see are Fallon in the midfield with Daly at center back or maybe Kenny playing wing back and letting us get another shooter in up top.

Yes, a fully fit Ultan Harney will be a nailed on midfielder. What a player he is when fully fit. I'd imagine Eddie Nolan will probably partner Ultan but I expect Doyle to see plenty of game time too. Shane Cunnane had a brilliant season last year in my book and I expect him to really push on this year too. Think he can be a really influential player for Ros in future years. He's a lovely play maker and pulls the strings linking defence to attack really well. Overall it's a very exciting time for us supporters. A lot of potential in this squad and I just hope we get it all this year and in the years to come. On a side note, does anyone know why Jack Duggan is not on the squad? Was he told he wouldn't be selected and hence transferred back to Longford or is he just taking time out? I thought he was definitely one for the future. Think the new rules would have suited his game too
