Replying To Onion Breath: "Interesting team picked for Sunday. Darragh back in on the 40, choo choo starting but Ciaran Moran left out. Kyle Nolan in at midfield - I didn't see that coming and Niall Hickey in at centre back and John Phiri at wing back. Paddy Mc picked at corner back so lots of runners picked in defence it seems and it is a very athletic team, with lots of pace in it which is good to see with top of the ground likely on Sunday. Jamie Clarke left out is another surprise.
Biggest news for me though is Ben McCarron into goal for Johnny Furey, who is not even a sub, unless he's injured? If not injury related I assume this means Joe wasn't happy with our kick outs and I'd agree with that as they have been a problem.

There is no chance the team lines out like that. It's Joe keeping everyone guessing. Same way Tom Mulally's hurling teams are always different than named.

Where to start with that performance today?! Slow, lethargic, poor first touch, never developed a set pattern of play, allowed kildare the freedom of the park. All things you'd never associate with the carlow hurlers over the years. Kerry game probably didn't help as it was almost like a training match. Going to have to regroup for the westmeath game and not look beyond that. They're good enough to bounce back but will need a reaction after today.
