Definitely missed a huge opportunity this year but we have to grin and bear it unfortunately, Galway and Mayo having the last laugh and could easily be in All Ireland semi finals this time next week. Hopefully we can fid the balancing act between winning a Connaught and having a strong run in an All Ireland series.

Have many Roscommon players gone stateside ? Usually there is a strong number for the best clubs out there, considering how early we have exited the championship. I heard Eoin Ward has gone over.

Club championships will be in full swing in weeks time. Usual suspects Brigits and Pearses will be hard stopped. Cant see anyone getting close to either.

Boyle should be in the mix with Ros Gaels best outsider.

Ros Gaels should be able to go the whole way this year. It's there for them. Boyle, Glaveys also in the mix. Brigid's could be caught by the town side.

Roscommon gaels were in chaos the last time I heard. That was a month ago though. No doubt they have huge talent coming up. See Brigid strolling through it to be honest. Boyle with Fergal their only test. Fancy Oran to make a semi final.

Boyle in the mix but Pearses,Brigids better defensively and better strength in depth than them. Hard to know what you'll get with Roscommon Gaels, have already replaced their outside manager with a local guy to steady the ship, their team is filled with recent Connacht U20 winners with Roscommon and well done to Michael Gillooly and Eoghan Carthy named on the U20 team of the year yesterday.
