If inter-county management doesn’t work out for the Kilcoo All-Ireland club winner, then perhaps Laverty could give politics a go as he chose his words with diplomacy after a performance which clearly had disappointed him.
“Listen, if that was the level of performance… it just wasn’t the level of performance that this team aspires to get to,” he said.
“It’s not the reason why I took the job for our players, and I feel we have a talented bunch of players.
“Whenever people would have talked about the Derry and the Dublin match, it was a great game for the neutral to watch.
“I’m sure there wouldn’t have been too many neutrals impressed with that game now.
“Antrim set up with a deep block, defended narrow and we knew they were going to come with that and we put a lot of practice into how to deal with that.
“But as a group and me as manager, we have to find better ways of dealing with this.”
