I know everyone else is going with Lynch and Flynn in midfield but I would like to see Flynn paired with O'Neill. Think it would give extra strength and be a better partnership.

You have a point here. But O'Neill centre half forward a good option too.

Peile are you agreeing with me,that would be a first

I agree that O'Neill at center forward is a good option (a very good option) but for me he has being our best midfielder this year and for that reason I would leave him there.
My Team would be:

Connolly

McGrillen
Foley
McLoughlin

Leper
Whyte
Bolton

Flynn
O'Neill

Kavanagh
Doyle
Cribbin

Dowling
R. Kelly
Smith

thought he was back training the last few weeks??

Well I'd say myself O'Neill and Lynch will start again in the middle.
I'd say Flynn will come on and O'Neill will go into the forwards then.
I'd rather have Lynch than O'Neill in the middle with Flynn but that's just my opinion.

I think we need Flynn on the top of his game on Sunday. The good start our midfield made this year seems to have stagnated recently, in fairness the whole teams performance has dipped. I'm not sure who to drop as I liked the look of O'neill at the start of the year but the fact if isn't a natural midfielder might go against him. For me I'd go with the following 15:

Connolly

McGrillen
Foley
Mac

Flats (if fit)
Flanagan
Bolton

Flynn
Lynch

Leper
E Flats
Cribben

JD
Kavanagh
Dowling

Obviously I'm leaving out the likes of Smith, Kelly and O'Neill out but I think its necessary to get the likes of Jimmers, Flynn and Morgan into the team while also trying to keep the younger lads and the team leaders in the team.

Our defence also needs to settle down and gain some continuity. I think we need to settle on a defensive 6 and keep them together. Constant changing does them no good.

i cant see flynn starting sunday. he had a huge bearing for moorefield in the county final this year when introduced from the bench. i can see the same happening sunday..

I think it's essential to keep O'Neill on the team as he is one of the few players that can score points from 40/50 yards out. As I saw it in the last couple of matches our difficulty was that the forwards tried to work the ball to within 20 yards or so of the goal before going for a score with the result that more often than not they lost possession with a score coming at the other end.

Tomás O’Connor has returned to full training too. Would like to see Brophy getting a run out soon.

A big crowd expected in St Conleths on Sunday, time to knock the squirrel eaters off their perch, but the form is with the queens, expect some red cards....................

Doubleagent it's a pity you wouldn't put up a few informative posts such as fone's instead of some of the rubbish i've seen spouted here recently by your good self.

Nice, I was hoping you'd do that.

I'll add this from doubleagents first post

"I enjoy reading this forum especially during the football season so i had to join to keep in touch. I'm not a Kildare man"

Considering the rubbish he has been coming out with make of that what you will.

Don't think it's your place to be making posts like that Admin. If he's done something worthy of censure or banning, do it, but stirring the shit is definitely not your job.

Very nervous about Sunday but I don't think that the wet weather will suit the small queens. Very hard to call and don't call me a prophet of doom.

Paddy Power has us as favourites.Here's hoping for a win

Paddy power had us as hot faves for the U21 Championship, we are going to get hammered

Hopefully it is a good game of football between two footballing sides and not the bare knuckle fighting we have witnessed between the two over the last few meetings.

Anyways best of luck Kildare and for the boys living in deep south Kildare I hope to god we win!! But for us located around the curragh plains atleast we wont have to face them monday morning in work!!

Ogie apologies if it came across wrong, what I was trying to point out was that because someone on here is posting it does not make it mean they have the best for intentions for Kildare GAA . Everything should be taken with a pinch of salt.

As for shit stirring, there is enough of that going on without the like of me adding to it.

Kildare 1-12 Laois 1-10 put a tenner on it
