Replying To tommyc: "Perhaps so but I still think Clann are one of Top Six sides in Roscommon. They were in a difficult group and our championship format does need tweaking to make it more interesting. To have just two SFC games and be out of it is not good enough. Teams need at least four and maybe more championship games to make it meaningful. That said the over riding issue is we have a less competitive senior championship in Roscommon in comparison to other counties" \Roscommon is one of the best senior championships in the country

Replying To currinman: "I'm sorry,
But this comment smells of complete arrogance and a complete disregard of all club levels in the county.
Had we any trouble going to clones or croke park in the kast 10 years and watching lad like Colin Walshe and Neil Mc Adam putting on the county jersey.
If we are that interested in going to watch the senior game/games go to the venue itself and watch them.
GAA is about promoting the game at all levels and there more clubs in the county than the 10 senior clubs.
The teams in Intermediate and junior deserve as much respect.
And co nsidering Intermediate is the most wide open competition of the 3 levels this season, it's probably the most exciting to follow this year." Disagree. The stream should cater for the majority not the minority. Facts are senior games are of a better standard, people like to watch the game played at the best level etc. there's a reason the senior games in the county draw the bigger crowds.
So, why not utilise the streaming to accommodate the same?

Replying To ohwow: "Yes agreed, one team winning all the time like St Brigids is very boring." Yes it's tedious and draining thanks so much. They need to change the structures I think so millions and I hope they read this and take note. Thanks in advance.

Replying To moros: "Definitely thanks very much for agreeing. Standard in Leitrim is poor but any team there can win the cup. In Ros it's probably a pick of Brigid's /Pearses/Boyle and Oran. Brigids haven't as much depth though as people think but have quality. Love to all." There's really no pick at all, it will just be Brigids winning it again hmm. One day there will be competition for them.

Replying To Tarismelting22: "\Roscommon is one of the best senior championships in the country" And before anyone says you're biased it's opinion shared by many pundits and Journalists around the country.
Strokestown county champions in 2022 and relegated the next year really showed how competitive the senior championship. Clann this year should look at that and be fully focused for their relegation play off.
Brigid's favourites but I wouldn't put any big cash on it when it's nearly a decade since any team retained the Fahey Cup. Brian Stack in the Irish Independent today rightly said they haven't look past the Roscommon championships when he was asked about Brigids All-Ireland hopes.
Intermediate championship strong also with 4 of the last 8 Connacht winners from Roscommon and was three other Roscommon Finalists losing narrowly.
We had a group format with more games a few years ago and it didn't work. A group stage with 1 home 1 away and 1 match in a neutral venue is a more group suitable format.

Replying To Overtheblackspot89: "Exactly Magheracloone have been shown 3 weeks in a row now" This narrative needs to stop, and quickly.
Magheracloone can welcome Clubber in no problem because they aren't short of cash, lots of money flowing there from Gypsum after the disaster a few years ago.
Every other club in Monaghan has been hit with a county board "maintenance fee" of 3-6k each depending on grade. That's why clubs aren't so forthcoming in clubber access to their grounds… because they want to get more people in the gate to pay the fee

Replying To moros: "Pearses and Boyle in Roscommon would harbour real ambitions too. Oran and Ros Gaels might be chasing too. Real top notch stuff. Remember Brigid's haven't huge reserves so any injuries maybe precarious. Love to all." St Brigids havent huge reserves. Is this a joke? They have had something like 13 players involved in Roscommon senior football panels in the past couple of years. They played virtually all of the Division 1 league without their county contingent this year which was 8 players and still got to a league final. And actually won the Division 1 league final last year. They have 6 or 7 subs that would make any other senior team in the county. I do agree that Pearses and Boyle will give them plenty of it in the knockouts and Brigids winning Roscommon isn't a foregone conclusion by any means but they have more than enough reserves to cope with injuries. Eddie Nolan and Shane Cunnane, two inter county midfielders didnt feature yet (Cunnane for 4 minutes in one game) and they still didn't need to get out of first gear.

Replying To Farneylad275849: "Who's the top forwards in the championship so far?
1. Steven Mooney
2. James Maguire
3. Max McGinnity
Mooney hitting 9 points from play this weekend on Dylan Bryne surely makes him no 1 so far" Luke Hughie McKenna from truagh ??? Hes playing some tasty stuff. One for the future for Monaghan. Heard he was giving Ronan Boyle a tough time at training and Ronans one county best defenders keeping Stephen Mooney to 1 point.
