Charlie Mitchell obviously couldn't be involved because he's currently out after taking ill after the Kenny game.
And Cormac Egan was playing football for Offaly yesterday as opposed to playing for Hurling.
But of those kind of
It's been an amazing way to bring them through.
You always get a certain amount of attrition from under-20, but they were all involved in the matchday panel today, essentially.
Donald Shirley out because of his knee injury.
Charlie wasn't involved.
12 started and 3 came on during the game.
So 15 under-23s were involved, basically.
Yeah, I'll bring you in this in a second, Scott, just to pick up what Murph was saying, because I was kind of having that thought on the way home after the game, which is that often you need to benchmark this against what they've done in the year more generally.
So there was always the risk that trimming was going to happen.
These two have been saying I've been too pessimistic all year.
At one point, I think Murph said earlier on today, you've been saying they're going to get a kick in from one of these teams.
It'll happen at some stage.
But I think when you come up against the real elite, whether that be Limerick, whether that be against Cork,
So I think there was only one point of a difference between the league results and today in terms of the score that Cork put up against Offaly.
So clearly there are levels, like was it 626, 625, that type of area in both games.
So clearly Cork are that bit ahead and Limerick are that bit ahead as well.
The very top three or four counties are miles ahead.
The thing is for Offaly, they need to get to a point where they consistently stay in Leinster and they get to a point where they're able to challenge Wexford and Dublin and try and finish in the top three.
