The Players who ARENOT on the Starter squad for 2014

The best and easiest way of doing this is accounting for the players who were involved last season and are not named in this years panel.

By process of elimination and accountability


Injured
Shane Lennon
Ray Finnegan
Cathal Bellew
 
Emmigration
Joe Flanagan
Ruairi Moore
John Bingham Travelling
Ciaran Byrne AFL bound

Trialled.
Tommy Durnin
Thomas Costello
Ronan Greene
Anthony Williams
That's 11 we know have reasons for not being there.

 Which  leaves us with...
JP RooneyRonan Carroll
Mick Fanning
Jim McEneaney

Pepe Smith, 
James Califf 
Conor McGuinnness

Some surprising omissions there...7 very surprising Omissions.
Alot of quality there and could be championship starters!

Why are they not involved

allow me to fill in the blanks, the best I can.


Mick Fanning and JP Rooney have been very unlucky with injuries especially under the AOR reign so maybe thats why they've been omitted.

The Clogher Duo have tons to offer but work commitments might be the reason they are not involved? Same goes with McGuinness although he may have fallen out with AOR anyway.

I'd understand why Jim might not be included as the the Gers are still be involved in the All-Ireland series but then why include Gerry Hoey? 
It says to me, Jim will not be involved with the early part of the season.

However, injuries/operations aside he should still be involved in the panel conversation much in the way Shane Lennon, Ray Finnegan was clarified by AOR. 

That says to me he may be omitted long term.

Finally Ronan Carroll,
It is no surprise AOR wasn't Ronan's biggest fan in and out of the side last season and never really fancied. Ronan maybe has decided to take an easy option and not come back for this season if he wasn't wanted in the first place!




Lads worth a Shot...?
Bear in mind....we've just gone through 54 players already today
who said we don't posess the talent in this county!
This is a section I've made up from people's opinions


The list is mainly made up of players from the county champions from across the 3 grades this season.


Newtown Blues
Hugh McGinn  Top scorer in the Senior Championship wasn't asked?

James Murray injured ??
Stephen Moonan
??

Gers Contingent that could be drafted in after the AI semi
Michael Rogers
Glen Traynor
Shane O'Hanlon

James Craven
Tiernan Hand

and maybe more worth a try....?

Hunterstown Duo
Ryan Burns
Keith Brennan
Definitely worth a call up at least.....
