Well LS twas like this............ Mayo pulled all their half forward line back into defence at the start of the 2nd half and hit long early ball into their full line from midfield and chased in on it at pace. The long ball ploy worked very well as it unsettled us. Till then Mayo as with Cork were t...

Do you look to win the game or do you see how the younger lads fare against arguably the best team in Leinster at the minute. The former is tempting but if you want to see what lads are made of a clash with Leix is the ideal place to find out. I say go with the young lads. Agreed, at the end of the...

In fairness a whole lot about nothing- well especially the Coughlan affair.
Must be very little else happening if this is all they can find to write about.

As for Cathal, The panel are back training a while now and Cathal already said he was not returning - its hardly sensational all of a sudden.

Lets just say when the chop comes - as it will in Jan for the U21's, I dont expect to see him clear the last fence.
Not sure how committed he is ?

Cant see either of the above making it. Big panel there at the moment so I'd expect at least 10 of the above to go.

Cass it appears will not be available.

Saw this game and to be honest while it was okay in quality, I'd fear for Tullamore V Rhode. Tullamore have a nice team, but on the balance a bit young when compared to Rhode's offering. Was very dissappointed with S Delaney- I know he was injured in some way, but this seems to happen a fair bit wit...

The problem or indeed the potential problem is that since early summer Niall has really only had one master (Rhode) Now that Rhode's run is over, no doubt Offaly will be calling, as will UCD and then it's a case of here we go again. Perhaps he was more rested in the last 6 months than in the first 6...

Must say watching it I had similar thoughts but then- its a different game with no real skill - lets be honest, Ya get the ball and run like a scared cat or dog at halloween. 4 steps , 5 steps, 6 steps 8 steps , 120 steps -no end to the amount of steps.. Kick it wide and get a point for it! No sides...
