If we can beat Kildare next week we'll face Pat's at Richmond. It's perhaps not as bad a draw as it sounds on paper as Pat's have a heavy schedule and may well opt for a second string side.
As always with these things we're playing Pat's that week.

On the other hand we're playing Cork on the Thursday before hand and yourselves the following weekend so we'll be more rested than most. We've a small enough squad.
Last year McDonnell rested about 4/5 players against a first division side and they beat us

It's only the league cup:p
That old joke aside, Setanta Cup playoff place.Quote:

Last year Mahon rested about 11 players and we were knocked out by a first division side as well.Quote:
