Corinthian

Last Season: 6th

Record: Won 8 Drew 3 Lost 7 Pts 27 Goals For 48 Goals Against 40

Player/coach: John McInroy

Captain: Andrew Sutton

Players In: John McInroy (Pembroke), Sam Lopsey (Australia), Nate Coolidge (USA)

Players Out: Lucas Piccioli (TRR)

Summary: The additions will definitely strengthen a side that looked good in parts last year but lacked a cutting edge. American international Nate Coolidge looks handy from penalty corners while Sam Lopsey came on to decent effect at centre-midfield against Rovers.

McInroy’s bustling presence will get some good goals but can he combine this with his coaching commitments? Piccioli’s flair will be missed but their ambitions will be to try and oust either Monkstown or Fingal and get into the IHL.

Chris Pelow will be back after a couple of weeks to give some options at the corner. Their first match out at the airport will be one of the defining matches of the season.

First three games: Fingal (a); YMCA (h); Glenanne (h)

Prediction: 5th

Yeah he hasn't been training well apparently and young Brian Doherty is their No1 drag flicker now.
