The former Laois star is positive on the prospects of the Tailteann Cup.
Competitive football throughout the peak of the championship season is one of the substantial rewards on offer in the Tailteann Cup.

Offaly and the O'Moore County will meet in round two but this weekend will take on London and Cavan respectively.
Looking forward to the second year of the Tailteann, Munnelly tells David Hollywood that the competition started strong last year:
