Any update on appointments of club managers for 2023? I presume Fletcher will stay with Shinrone? Any truth Arien Delaney is heading back to his own club?

Will be a lot of changes on the managerial front.

All bar Shinrone will be weighing up their options.

Gary Cahill is new Birr manager with Martin Bennett on board as S&C coach!

Belmont and ballinamere are definitely looking

Any word on Rynagh's and Coolderry

You'd imagine not seeing as it was their first years and both had to deal with players not available

Rynaghs looking as are coolderry

Wow, find that unfair on rynaghs man in particular, with Dolan and Hughes away o Connor in new York too.

Ruthless business

Have Ballinamere not stuck with same man again.

You'd imagine Pat Cleary would be a good fit there..

In fairness Cuthberts hands were tied with lads injured.

Rynaghs beat by two points by side that went on to win the championship

Don't think it's necessarily ruthless. In both situations I think the lads wanted to move on or had their own reasons to go.

You could be right. Both teams would have had ambition of winning championship

Rynaghs might but coolderry are most definitely on a downward spiral.

It looks to me like the following

Shinrone - Trevor Fletcher to remain for a 3rd year. (Ironically, he was by all accounts, very close to the exit door mid season)

Kilcormac / Killoughey - Shane Hand to remain for year 2.

Belmont - Would have thought Arien Delaney would have done a 2nd year but if not Belmont will be on the look for a 3rd manager in as many years following a year each for Delaney and Ollie Baker

Birr - Gary Cahill takes over after 2 years of Brendan Bugler

Ballinamere - No idea who their manager was last year.

St Rynagh’s - Manager last year (don’t know his name) seemingly moving on after 1 year. This was predicted here if I remember correctly and his appointment was questioned.

Coolderry - Brian Cuthbert is seemingly moving on after 2 years. A huge drop off from Year 1 to Year 2.

Kinnitty - Denis Kelly has moved on after 3 years to manage the Tipperary senior camogie team.

Seir Kieran - Barry Whelehan to embark on year 2. A team to watch I think. Should see improvements this year as age profile is young.

Tullamore - Would presume the management team who won the Senior B with them will remain in place.

Seamus Mc Keogh Durrow was The Ballinamere manager last season, had a good season but is not staying at home.

Rynaghs had Kevin O'Brien who managed his own club clonkill to 3 in a row senior championship and also part of the Offaly set up last season.
