| It would be disastrous for kildare gaa if they were to get contract , all be it there prerogative , to seek a better future , I suppose we would wish them well , and hope they come back better players for the experience they would gain , i suppose now is it worh the seanies now , this will push homegrown talent away for sure due to been cast aside for a journeyman , it all adds up , how many now leaving kildare shores for sunnier pastures |

| I hardly think these boys are going for AFL trials because of Seanie Johnston, that's a bit of a stretch. |

| i know hurley attended one back in october so that was well before any johnston rumours. he seems very interested in going though. his club man cribben already out there. def would be a loss to kildare in the coming years if he eas to go. cant hold a lad back though if he is going tio get a wage from football. he has to put in similar effort here and has to be in full time employment also to survive. |

| You couldn't blame a lad for going. Only thing we can hope is that they'll come back as animal footballers. |

Well if you were in the 21/22 bracket and had ambition of playing for the Senior County team , then you discover it may effect your selection by vitue of the arrival of a player from a different county , who appear to be told he shall immediate gain a place on the senior county team , what would be your attitude be when you realise well my services probably wont be required , and now a professional sport are calling knocking on your door, what would you expect they would do in light of this journeymans arrival, I say take a chance !! as this journeyman seems to be the flavour of the month with the current mangement committee , I am not hanging around if I am not wanted ,

No personal attacks. Debate the post, not the poster. Personal attacks are taken seriously and will be dealt with using whatever action is needed. If you think you are being attacked you should ask yourself why it is an attack. If it simply disagrees with your post and tells you that you are wrong, this is not an attack. Violent personal attacks and threats will result in a suspension or permanent banning, depending on the situation.
Examples: "Your post is idiotic." - Not a personal attack. "You are an idiot." - Mild personal attack, generally not a problem but try to avoid it. "You are a " - Strong personal attack. Your post will be removed and you may be banned from the site. "You are a ******** idiot... I wish death on you and a pox on your family!" - Violent personal attack. You will be banned from the site and have all offending posts removed.

Yet again is this an acceptable comment in light of the rule and regulations of this site , as this in the 3rd incidence of verbal abuse, has a precedence been set on this site directed at myself !!

| Vodafone, I just refuse to believe that someone would base a major life decision on the possible arrival of Seanie Johnston.
Are you really saying that player X, who would have turned down a chance to play AFL initially, would now say: 'Well, there's a chance Johnston might be ahead of me in the pecking order, sod this, maybe I will move to Australia after all?' I don't believe that.
Also, 'journeyman' isn't a word that really describes Johnston well. He has consistently been Cavan's top scorer and close to making international rules teams, he is also a former All-Star nominee.
Although I would add that you're entitled to your opinion and welcome to post it here. I just think you're wrong. |

Well the credentials you state are fine and commendable , but you must ask , is there a underlining issue in Cavan , as there is alway 2 sides to a story , I would say the fact now , if player X was approached again, this would or could push for change of mind, considering the events that have transpired . |

| Nah... if you're good enough to be asked, you're probably getting a call from the county soon enough. Paul Cribbin went before SJ landed. I would wager that the boys would be gone in a shot, whether or not SJ were coming, and at this stage, he's still not a part of the panel as it stands. |

Yes I agree in some respects that SJ is not on the panel , but every mans cat & dog knows when or if his transfer is granted , it wont take much club action to enlist his services , should he not be required to play a bit for the club ball to prove his nailing of his colours to the Kildare mast , I just feel when things dont go his way like in Cavan as proven , he will be on the road to another facilitator ,
I am hesitant to use this example as its Not liked here , but St Brigids in the unmentionable county had the same encounter with the Gallagher Brothers of Fermanagh , as there intention was to decalre for the unmentionable county
When there transfers were not santioned they headed back. |
