If Cooper is available and fit then no reason he should not be in the panel, that would be good news. Realistically getting Flahive back to full fitness should be the priority there, I think the three mentioned all have something to offer, good point regarding Tommy Walsh he should stay with his own age group. Thought Ring actually played reasonably well against Dublin in Croker, v comfortable going forward in that match. Merritt playing Sigerson in UCC, good chance to judge him in those games.rebel boy
I understand John Cooper will be available after Christmas, whether he's selected then for the panel is the issue.
Kevin Flahive shouldn't be available until later in the league alright.
Paul Ring has been involved long enough to develop and hasn't, imho his ship has sailed but I hope I'm wrong. Shane Merritt way off it, too lightweight and Tommy Walsh should get game time but I'd rather see him start with the U-20's first in his last year at that level.

You seem to forget most of us have seen Brian O'Driscoll play senior inter-county before and then he lacked the right attitude and was without discipline big time. He is now a good few years older and hopefully matured but should be slower or less sharp for this level.
What club championship was this? Saw him 3 times twice against Argideen once against Barryroe and if anything his man markers more deserving of a callIf Cooper is available and fit then no reason he should not be in the panel, that would be good news.

Brian O' Driscoll was very impressive in club championship in 2022, certainly has matured. Again McGrath cup games might tell us more. Cleary and his management team were at club games all summer at all levels and have seen everyone in the panel last year, I think anyone worth their salt has been looked at.
Corkonian1 is there anyone you would like to see that was not part of last years panel involved? ( excluding those that do not want to be there, pointless exercise)

I could be wrong but I am 90% he was on that Minor team that won the county in 2018, so that would make him 23 next year. And I agree, he definitely could be looked at.Does anyone know how old Peter Cunningham from St Michaels is??. He was incredibly impressive anytime I watched them this year
I'd tend to agree with ya.What club championship was this? Saw him 3 times twice against Argideen once against Barryroe and if anything his man markers more deserving of a call
