Replying To Gavlar:  "6 years and Tommy Rooney saying he's staying for two more"
Tommy Rooney said it? Joyce himself said it, agreement in place last September to stay on until 2028.

Replying To FullOfPorter:  "He is really, Diarmuid and Enda are the only ones around for years. Debut season for Darragh Heneghan, had a wobble at the end but a very good first year for the lad. O Hanlon has been playing inter county for the best part of 10 years, a ridiculous comparison. Daire Cregg has only been an established starter since 2024. Still has to find more consistency but ends the year scoring 2-46. Mooney scored 2-8. First year for Robert Heneghan as well."
In fairness Roscommon had a lot of championship starters this season .Players like Daire Cregg and the Heneghans are only going to get better. Despite the disappointment of Clones, the future for Roscommon is bright. We need to build on this season by getting to Croke Park next Summer and hopefully winning a championship match there.

He will never win one with any team

The likes of cregg needs to do better. He had a good start to the year but very inconsistent. Cregg and Henaghan must be 24/25 now they are no longer young players. Cregg has years of experience and yes Henaghan will learn from this year definitely but cregg needs improve a lot of what he does because he has the potential.

Roscommon forwards are nearly all inconsistent, first seen at underage and brought through to senior. I've lost count to the amount of games we have lost at all grades due to our shooting efficiency not up to the requred level.

Jason Sherlock was brought in to help out in that regard, the Dublin management team he was previously with was pretty flawless on their shooting efficiency. One year was never going to enough time but we seen green shoots in our shooting in wins v Galway,Armagh,Donegal and Mayo matches this year.

Daire Cregg turns 24 this month he made his championship debut in 2023. Darragh Heneghan a year older and made his championship debut this year, his club form got him a recall to the county panel and hopefully a few more do the same in the upcoming club championships.
