Good choice, and nice to see them take care of business so quickly as well. Avoided the drawn-out will-he-won't-he soap opera which I was afraid might be coming.

Any idea who might be in line for the U20s? Might be worth trying Furlong, since he'll already have worked with a lot of the players they'll be drawing on over the next two seasons.

That would be my plan if i was KOD. Last year was too soon for Furlong to be promoted to the senior management, he should have been given the u20 job instead and he would have had another 12 months under his belt at this stage. The minor and under 20 appointments are just as vital as the Senior one and in lots of ways are even more important

Im really excited by Pat Ryan’s appointment, looking through the panel i can see only one player that Pat would be secure in the knowledge he’s my man, that’s Ciaran Joyce, he is everything any manager would want in their players, courageous, competitive, consistent, skilfull and has that irrelevance of opposition players that all great players have. The battle now is get the rest up to that level and weed out the guys who can’t.

Pat Ryan apparently wasting no time getting his squad together. Been told Colin O'Brien had a phone call asking him to join the panel for the winter again. Wouldn't be surprised if Ryan is already working on getting Brian Hayes to switch codes also!

brilliant news, Colin has huge potential

Unfortunately I think we are 12 months too late on Brian, if we had any long term planning it should have happened the day after last years all ireland final

If he hasnt been on to Dalton yet,im calling for his head.

you can be sure Pat will be asking Deccie back in, I think he’s our free taker going foward and he would revel in the pressure

I wonder will shane oregan get a phone call? Was very effective u20 under pat and brings something different?

Any chance he'd give you a shot at selector. Since you're on first name terms and you're such an expert.

He needs some coaching so he doesn’t shoot from impossible angles.
He will also need some managing.
I’m sure Pat knows the possibilities.

Brian Hayes would be a great addition and if he’s interested in all Ireland’s, hurling is way more promising. What about Brian Turnbull … too underage player a few years back.Add in Roches and Power to existing panel, and we won’t be waiting long for glory

Lads are getting giddy already...by God

Very interesting if true. Not that O Brien got a call, I would have expected that. But that its supposedly being done within 24 hours of Ryan's appointment and 7 months before our next game. I'll be interested to hear who else he has rang already.

He clearly has a vision and plans on implementing it immediately. I'm expecting a good club championship. I would say any lad that has a good club campaign will have a more then reasonable chance of getting on the extended winter training panel and seeing where it goes from there.

I'm really hoping Wayne Sherlock comes on board. And I think he will.

Out of curiosity, what is Tom Kennys role in hurling these days. Heard him on 103fm last year and was impressed. Got the impression he had a lot to say but wasn't going to say it over radio.

Coaching with UCC freshers, I think??
