Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

As far as I know Anonymous, this is a message board for people to express opinions about their thoughts on Offaly football. If for some reason, you dont like what others have to say, perhaps you should set up your own board and engage in it by yourself where nobody disagrees with you and you have n...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Yea looks close to as strong as we are. Management seems to have finally realised that lots of the older lads are still better than the young lads - for now at least. Good to see Hogan back at 3 where he belongs. Dempsey can give us something going forward from 6 or 7. Dempsey Named at 6 which is i...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Clare have only 4 lads that have ever started championship games and none of those 3 could be considered regulars and one is a goalie. Quilligan is under pressure to stay in goals and Hayes, Seadna Morey and Ian Galvin wouldn't start half the time. Lots of lads there I've never heard of too so they ...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Well each to their own but the game is more physical now without a doubt, lads are way bigger stronger and harder hitting, there is actually more tackling and proper skilled tackling, the difference of course is the hitting is fair and skilled.. you're mixing it up, the game wasn't "physical&q...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

I could safely say some lads in here don't go to games enough or don't see what's going on in front of them. I said here weeks back while there is signs of improbment we still have huge strides to go before been competitive with the top teams. We can't expect so much from lads who at the end of the...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Going by Offaly Twitter, Duffy was injured. Good performance. Credit where it is due. All over field, Offaly were better. It was probably our best team out there from 2-12 and strongest by distance so far this year. That created the chances and we won well as result. It is just a pity it has taken s...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Fairly strong team. Jack O Brien will be disappointed to lose out. Thought he was excellent v Westmeath on Ronan O Toole and he will get more chances to show his worth. Interesting to see Hogan at 7. There might be bit of reshuffle with either Furlong or Dempsey as Hogan would be more used to playin...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Cian Farrell dropped and has left the panel arguably the best forward in the county NIGEL Dunne dropped for tonight’s game too as I said earlier this team was known the last few days. All is not well in the camp It will come out in the wash what’s going on there the last few months So sounds like l...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Just because a lad gives away ball few times does not mean he was sulking surely. Fair enough he wasn't his normal self but maybe there was more to it than we know. He is surely trying to not lose the game. He has been consistently one of our best players over last 3 or 4 years. Sulking is the wron...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

How they lost from that position is beyond me. We were coasting and should have seen it out. Clare owned ball and waltzed through us in last 15 mins like a knife through butter. There were good things for lots of game albeit Clare left chances behind too early in game - and again towards end with so...

That's a bizarre call if true. I'd see him as one of our main forwards and certainly deserves to start ahead of some others.

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Huge game on Sunday for Offaly in game where they need to get a result - at least a draw and hopefully a win. A loss would see us likely to lose 4 in a row as we have Down up next, which will likely heap more pressure on manager. The team announced shows the same 6 backs as the last day with Bracken...
