frank higgns also won title with st.marys and gracefield who he captain in 1961 and was on the 60's team also i think
he won two titles with rhode as well so he has won 3 county titles with 3 different clubs .

See the thing with Dooley is he's an excellent taker of a score.....give him the ball even 40 yards out and he'll have a shot (usually not too far off the mark with it either). He's full of confidence. Not every forward has that....plenty of current county players are shy in front of goal. Remember...

well i seen it all now willie mulhall and ken casey are great footballer's and better than Dooley who doesn't play intercounty football from the bit of football i seen Shane Dooley play with tullamore senior and junior the last few years he is way better than mulhall and casey, people seem to forget...

The thing i would like to know why is he coming out with all this now about players and mangers
ger gave 100 per cent when he played but he wouldn't get into the top 30 hurlers who played for offaly
since 1980.

no its nothing to be proud of but they done the same to waterford in a final and beat Galway bye 21 points in thurles around that time as well .they were a great side like we were in the 90's when we were beating kilkenny 4-17 to 0-7 in 1990 leinster semil but carlow they would beat no one and never...

in regards the effort by some players? well over the past few years i think SOME of the footballers effort was certainly questionable but they appeared to try a lot harder this year. But as for the hurlers i cant honestly say ive never seen them put in less than 100%. Kilkenny 2005, Clare 2006, Cor...

Ger was right on some point's but he has to remember he was lucky to be around when we had some class hurler's in offaly so he shouldn't be so hard on some points about the young hurler's that are in offaly at the moment, if ger was only at the start of his offaly playing day's would we be any bette...

yes agree with you on Cathal Horan theres plenty of hurling in him, he was on the panel a few year's ago and Joe played him
centre forward which was wrong Sean Coughlan will be one to watch in the next few year's.

Plain of the Herbs wrote:Michael Cordial, Dermot Mooney and Mark Quinlan were also last year’s championship panel. All three were listed for the Limerick match in July.

Then again, Quinlan didn't make the Birr team when push came to shove.

Mark Quinlan was on the Birr team this year

Im not 100% of the actual panel but i know theres 34 doin gym work at the moment,There cutting it to 30 at the end of janurary, theres a nice few lads after been called in, Colin Egan Paul Bermingham Peter Healion Tom Carroll Brian Mulrooney Kevin Connolly Kevin Waters Gary Connelly and i think Con...

o'loughlins manger would like to see it played after christmas as their star midfielder maurice nolan is hurt and missed the last two game's. i remember Birr playing castletown of laois in a leinster club final replay in nowlan park a few year's ago on a sunday i think it was three days or so before...

After watching this years club championship theres not many players that would jump out at you it will be much the same panel as last year with oakley and breeder gone. Coolderry as county winners will have the same face's that have been there for the last 7 year's young kevin connolly should get a ...

see one set on fire already not a great start for them the way the country feels at the moment i think
there will be a few more burned out

The Kilkenny People's account of John Locke's semi-final win, written by Barrie Henriques who I believe is a Callan man. By the sounds of it they'll be something similar to Drumcullen. http://www.kilkennypeople.ie/sport/Happy-days-continue-for-fiercely.6628043.jp Barry Henriques is a Laoisman he pl...

bring the hurling back to the home of hurling Birr.
