A week to go and things are very quiet on here! Are we a little apprehensive? We have every reason to be
Waterford may not have a great championship record over the past few years but they are always a team that cause us problems with their running game and unorthodox tactics
On paper we are better than them but games are not won on paper. Waterford will try keep things tight and make it into a battle. Going on past spring visits the pitch won’t be in great nick either which will suit them down to the ground
We have to be ready for them and meet fire with fire and pick our team accordingly
Presuming everyone bar Kingston is fit, this is the team I would start
PCollins
EDowney, DCahalane, SODonoghue
GMillerick CJoyce RDowney
TOConnell TOMahony
DDalton DFitzgibbon STwomey
SBarrett AConnolly PHorgan
MColeman, ROFlynn, BHayes, SHarnedy all to come on and do damage in the second half. None of them dropped, championship is now a 20 man game
PS I don’t see the selectors going with my team seeing as they threw it back in my face when I handed it to them
. in fact I think they will start at least one player I haven’t even named above, and another 4 or 5 could easily come on, that’s how strong we are now and whatever team they pick let’s all get behind them
The championship nerves are building
