    Not sure of your vintage Buller but your selection is very like the famous Irish Olympic side for the Seoul 88 campaign, and what a team that was, all LOI, it was something like 6 Rovers, 3 Dundalk, 1 Derry, and 1 either Bohs (Jackie Jameson) or Waterford lad, can't recall his name, striker, good player.

    Off topic big time here but I had a great gra for that team, my form teacher was best mates with Jim McLaughlin, we went to most games, Tolka or Dalymount, Spain, Sweden and Hungary in the group. Alan O'Neill, Gino Lawless and Barry Kehoe (RIP) were the Dundalk players. Derry also had a player called Patterson I think.

    Fogra - Mick Bennett was the Waterford striker

    Christ, what has no football for 3 weeks done to us all !!!!
    #DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).

    Not a single Bohs player deserves a spot in any XI. Talbot is error prone this year, Devoy has been terrible, Burt looks disinterested, Promise for some bizarre reason has lost his spot to Junior.

    Long has lost the dressing room

    Mid-season break in the WNL takes place very soon, so here's my attempt at the half-season WNL team:-

    Eve Badana (DLR)

    Jess Gargan (Shels)
    Della Doherty (Wexford)
    Jess Stapleton (Shels)
    Chloe Mustaki (Shels)

    Jess Ziu (Shels)
    Kylie Murphy (Wexford)
    Ellen Molloy (Wexford)
    Aine O'Gorman (Peamount)

    Saoirse Noonan (Shels)
    Emily Corbet (Athlone)

    Killian Brouder has been good for Galway this season, plus van Geenen for Athlone looked handy in the one game I saw him. Paterson at Waterford has to be in team for sure. The Cork keeper Harrington, has impressed me as well.

    Is that Phil Harringtons son for Cork City Wonder88?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    I think that the team of the season so far is straight forward enough:-

    GK: Mannus
    LB: Lyons
    CB: Hoare
    CB: Pico
    CB: Grace
    RB: Cotter
    MF: O’Neill
    MF: Watts (aka best player in the league).
    WF: Byrne
    ST: Gaffney
    WF: Mandroiu

    Happy to be able to help.
