We should fear them cause we have no devine right to beat anyone and without the heads right we wont win.
Plus almost every time i can recall us resembling favourites we turn it into a dog fight.
No hassle with tickets for this one anyway!

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026
What do people think of the refereeing yesterday?
For me it was amusing as a mainly football man to see the ref in the Munster final generally castigated for implementing the rules. Also I've listened to a couple of serious discussions about the state of hurling and most of the hurling royalty don ...

Re: Minor Football 2026
I would say its a good move. In fairness, they have progressed the lads this far and now harm to use the next few months together to bring on to the level required for minor.

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026
On the button again LS. Management will be looking at this game in the same way that you are.
Wexford best us down there a few years ago under John Maughan, and hammered us in Tulamore after that (not sure if that year also). This is where the real pressure kicks in now as there is no safety net.

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026
Have to agree on the situation with Cian Johnson. A forward has to be able to stop kick outs and defenders getting out easily. Of course as an attacker he is a threat, but he needs to be able to do that aspect of the game too.
Without that you get over run the other end. are all the rest of our ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026
Great to get the 2 draws but its GAA and you are only as good as your next game.
Heads down and focus as even if the Wexicans are not going great, by Jaysus would they love to put us back in our box. Plus this is their All Ireland as they are likely to beat Galway if they need to in the last game.

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026
Good game to get anyway as if you win away to Clare its clear you could compete, whereas a win against many of the other teams we could draw would not indicate much.
With right atitude we should have enough to have this a tight game that can go either way.
Better off playing a strong team in my ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026
Reading reports galway could have scored 5-30. 4 points down with 10 to go was very good going all considered. Reality is Galway know they are going to a leinster final. They ll beat wexford and kildare handy. They are already planning for the all ireland series knockouts.
Fair enough analysis i ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026
From the commentary on the radio i took the following,
-Galway roughed up a few of the lads and seemed to get away with it
-Galway missed a lot of chances and didnt get out of 3rd gear
-Offaly's first touch was poor....look back at the full Dublin game and there was a lot of poor touches and ...

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026
Whether Declan should be manager next year, I'm not going to go into that.
But the level of shite thats up here now is gone too far.
He's one of the most successful and committed managers in recent years in Offaly. I said one of before ye jump up and down.

Re: U20 Footballers
Can’t fault the effort.
Longford made less mistakes and that was the difference. They dominated the kickouts to a large degree and had a more controlled attacking pattern. Quick ball to inside line and often target the no 12 as a shooter.
Terrible evening for a game but plenty of effort.

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026
Best team we've started all year I would say.
Laois also look strong.
Going to be a 50/50 game, but we should edge it.
Our bench of Bryant, Bracken, Higgins, Plunkett is strong and should hopefully edge it for us.
Anyone else not make the 26 panel that we're aware of? No Johnson on the 26 ...

Re: U20 Footballers
Good win and nice to see a few changes deliver also.
Keeps lads on toes.
Should be good battle for places now and likely q final v Longford.
Fair dues

Re: U20 Footballers
Kildare controlled the game and played to patterns and were cautious in their attacking play.
They cut us open easy enough and could have scored a lot more. The 5 point gap could have easily been treble that.
Yes , half the team were poor. maybe we can step it up, maybe we can’t.
