Ya Pike away to Collinstown in Dublin

Your post had not yet been made when I pressed reply.

Neville's save was mentioned in Tom's report. It was indeed fantastic.

This Mullins thing has been blown way out of proportion. I reported on a poor performance from him against Aisling. I didn't question his ability as a defender. In the end, you're right - Pike needn't have had any concerns. But then he wasn't under any pressure. He was cover for Enright up against one striker for most of the game. I don't recall him needing to make one covering challenge in that period, such was the dominance of his partner in that battle.

What you said was Pike would have concerns about pa in their upcoming big games.pike would never have concerns about pa you obviously dont know that.pa got in as many challenges as colm did yesterday they took it in turns to deal with him.no goal again from play from probably the best striker in junior football.seamus carroll gave the watching junior international manager food fir thought.

Seamus O'Carroll was indeed very good. He mostly played to the left of centre, targeting Lee O'Mara who hasn't had much game time recently, skinning him impressively on more than one occasion. Obviously he pounced on Glasheen's spill for the second goal, but he could have been more clinical with the two good chances that he was presented with in the first half. Still, in any game where Pike are expected to come up against a deep defence (which is most games), he'd be the striker they should be picking. Healy, on the other hand, is a great option off the bench on the counter if Pike are defending a lead.

Certainly have a much more rounded squad than last year.

Carrick away to St Brendans Park Sunday at 2pm and Hibs are away to Galbally. Two hard games for the Waterford league teams. Is there many other 5th round games on this weekend?
