One of the teams with real expectations going into the Ulster Championship. Built around Mark Lynch, an overnight star after a decade in the jersey, they are hardy and hard-working in the best traditions of Derry football. Get past Donegal and a first Ulster title in 16 years beckons. After that, a last-four place isn’t out of the question.
Last good day: Take your pick – Ulster final in 2011, All-Ireland semi-final in 2004
