Both managers are taking up the reigns at new counties.
Davy Fitzgerald is having his say on Seoirse Bulfin's appointment as the Westmeath Senior Hurling Manager.
The new Antrim boss worked with Bulfin at LIT in the Fitzgibbon Cup before going on to coach with him at Waterford, Clare, and Wexford.
Bulfin has stepped into the vacancy left by the departing Joe Fortune with the Lake County set to compete in Division 1B of the league, and in the Joe McDonagh Cup for the county's championship campaign.
Davy Fitz tells Midlands 103's Counrtney Callaghan Westmeath fans will get their reward if they support their new manager:
