Re: Offaly V Kildare 2nd round of LSFC

Where has Shane Tierney gone. To be honest, I don’t know too much about him, but he seemed to be the stand out forward on the u21 a couple of years ago.

Maybe someone on here that is closer to him might know better.

Re: Longest serving players in Offaly club championship

Donie Ryan played Adult (junior B) first in 1992, made senior championship debut in 1994 and played first team championship for Doon last year (played in junior final and every game of last year’s championship) and still flying it this year for the junior C’s.

Re: Byrne v Duignan

Harsh there BB. Very comprehensive championship structure/fixture plan released lately. Can't have been easy do all things considered. You know with that bad cold going around the last few months!! laying down foundations for a crack at the President's role down the road? And if he is, then best of...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

So disappointing leaving OCP yesterday. Could hardly believe what had happened. Hurled very well throughout albeit a few blips here and there. The need to push on and win games is crucial and never so apparent as yesterday. The ref was poor between the calls for throw balls and then the McManus ‘hit...

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

Shocking poor performance today really. The few minutes before half time when we went from 7-2 to 11-2 down at halftime killed off the game. If we went in just 5 behind with the breeze for the second half in addition to extra man for first ten minutes, we would have given it a right rattle Ultimatel...

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

Hard to disagree with Fairplay's choices. Assuming the games go ahead, with the dire weather forecast. It will be a distraction from the election news.! Derry to beat Tipperary Longford will probably account for Leitrim, in a local derby. Louth at home should beat Offaly, who need to play well for ...

Fair play White Grass. A well informed read and I’d forgotten about a few of them - can’t believe I forgot about Roy Mannion. Man of the match in 1991 league final and class act.

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

As a matter of interest, can anyone on here think of any player that didn’t make themselves available and/or was dropped off any of the successful Offaly teams of recent years. 1994 and 98 hurling 97 Leinster football 1998 league I think possibly James Grennan was working away (possibly London) arou...

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

I didn’t read any negatively around CJ but actually the opposite in that everyone, myself included, are saying to give him a chance as opposed to taking him off in games.

Hardly negative......

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

Although would have gladly settled for a draw for long periods, in the end it was disappointing given the chances we had as a result of a much robust second half performance. Poor first half with the wind behind us saw us going in a point behind at the break and things didn’t look great. Much improv...

Re: DIV 3 NFL predictions and general chit chat.

First half performance was as good as I’ve saw from Offaly in years. They really clicked in a 15 minute spell in the first half and kicked unbelievable points. Panda was on fire and well supported by Anton too. Their tackling, support play was brilliant and had a number of turnovers too. Unfortunate...

Re: O’Byrne Cup

anyone know why the goal keeper got a black card at the end? I think he said something to the umpire after they got the last point. The Longford forward was definitely behind the line when he caught the ball. I think that Paddy D and Rigney were also arguing that the forward did an illegal hand pas...

Who are the Offaly players in both. Nice to know them as easier to keep an eye out for them
