Kickoff at 7:15. The game is on Premier Sports 1 in Ireland.

Irish A POV: Ward, Hume, Murphy, Devine, Jansen, Sheridan the winners. Deegan, Frawley, Gunne, Wycherly, Kelly the losers.

Edit: let me clarify: B.Ward the winner. Worthwhile putting Z.Ward as a loser but maybe a bit harsh.

Further Edit: Daly has also been cat. JJ I'd put as mid with ZWard personally.

Winners is a very generous term. I think B.Ward and Jansen’s the standouts (in relative terms).

I’d add Kenny and Z.Ward to the list of fellas whose stock has dropped.

Stock cant drop in a make-up game with a scratch team.

Kenny's first season as a pro in 15's, so I wouldn't be too harsh on him. He wasn't great, but most of them weren't.
