Offaly were promoted after the Kilkenny match. Two teams go up!!

The Footballing Eddie Brennan is one great free-taker from his hands. I'd say that he probably accounts for over 50% of Kilkenny scores during the League.

Best of Luck to Gary and Thanks for the Inter-County Memories, especially Thurles 1998 and the Ending of Brian Corcoran's Illustrious First Career as a Centre-Half-Back.

I totally agree with you, Lone Shark!!

Good for the Dubs, Fair Play, and Justice Done!!

One Side Effect - Wexford will be gunning for them in the Championship.

I didn't see the Sid incident but my neighbours in the crowd said that it was an innocuous elbow or push which the Portumna player made a meal of. Sid had been annoyed that the Portumna player didn't cough up the ball for the free kick. The surface was brilliant for ground hurling and I was surprise...

I have to agree that we are off the pace at the moment. Still, as POTH says, some encouraging signs of player development. I wouldn't give up on the year yet! Is the League format for next year set? I'm thinking that an 8 team Division 2 made up of, say, Offaly, Laois, Wexford, Antrim, Westmeath, Ke...

The team never attacked the game and Laois deserved the victory although Offaly could have stolen it at the end. I hope that Joe Dooley and the selectors take on board the lessons because a few players are not up to it or are being played out of position. It wasn't all bad! Joe Bergin stepped up to ...

Offaly 3-19 Carlow 0-08 HT Offaly 1-7 Carlow 0-6 Offaly lived dangerously in the first half when they could have conceded a couple of goals. One such gilt-edged Carlow chance was followed by Offaly going down the other end via a long ball fielded by Paschal Kelleghan who off-loaded to Niall McNamee ...

Offaly V London . Offaly 7 wides - London 5 wides. Offaly played a different "Pat Roe" style with a lot of interpassing in the forwards. They were always looking to set up a final pop pass or rugby-style off-load to put somebody through on goal. This is completely different from the tradit...

Just to give an example on the service -messages yesterday. . Halftime message: Walsh Cup half-time: Offaly O-8 Wexford 0-5. Wexford's Michael Doyle straight red card 21 minutes. Full-time message; Walsh Cup FT: Offaly 1-12, Wexford 0-11. Daniel Currams top scorer (1-2). Face Antrim in final in Case...

Well,Offalys Future, Offaly got the win and there was no fancy hurling so you got your wish. Offaly 1-12 (15 wides) , Wexford 0-11 (14 wides) Offaly's gritty, battling display secured the win, helped by the dismissal of Michael Doyle of Wexford after 21 minutes. Shane O'Connor : Varied the puckouts ...

Thanks for the replies. To Hyper: I don't know why the service would stop. I would try registering again by texting OESPORT to 50100 To AZOffaly : Yes, they give the results of all the county championship games over the weekend. It's quick as well. I remember walking out of a match in Rath which fin...

Apologies if this has been highlighted before and maybe everybody is on to it already but this free Alert service is a Lifesaver for Offaly GAA followers. The Offaly Express sent the news on Saturday night that the Down match was postponed from Sunday because of waterlogging. Tonight the score of th...

Centre Back for Joe Bergin! He was a fine Minor Inter-County player in that position and he seems to be playing it well for his club!

Since other angles have been covered I'll do a quick run through the players: Padraic Kelly: Little to do except organise the defenders from behind (which he did). Ger Rafferty: Loves to hit and looked fit & sharp. Natural defender e.g. made sure that everything was sorted on the goal-line befor...
