28.9 - Shels
25.3 - Derry
25.2 - Cork
24.7 - Bohs
24.6 - Longford
24.3 - Drogheda
24.1 - Pat's
23.5 - Bray
23.1 - Dublin City
23.0 - Sligo

Apparently the league average (24.2) is down four years on six years ago.

No surprise that the 3 eldest teams are also 3 of the strongest squads in the country. And I presume the average is down due to the fact of more clubs going full time!
