Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

No need for the "slam dunk" reply, we are all on here entitled to our opinion no mire than yourself but telling us what we should or should not be discussing is uncalled for or necessary.. so I'll put it politely go and have a happy Christmas😉

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

exactly, and all I am saying is ask him (encourage him really) and see if he can, alot knock him, but if I were going into battle in the morning and he was willing and available he would be with me. Problem now is he has been away and knows there is another life out there other than the inter county...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

I was going to address that matter in my earlier post, but didnt want to go down that road but ultimately was lead down that road now, so be it, its only a question, but abit like the time it was asked at a county Boad meeting (prior to current administration being in place) was a certain prominent ...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

I only heard him for little bit. Talking about hitting lads and refs too soft , indicating that refs in offaly are soft and that was the reason offaly are where they are. Needed to be heard in context of play as things happened, he just didn't say lads should be going around hitting lads etc. He di...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

Well he was honest by all accounts, interestingly he said Birr emerged from the dressing room after half time in spurts, no charging out in defiance that we can do this etc.. they ran out in the same manner in which they left at half time, God be with the days they would bring the door frame out on ...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

to be brutally honest I dont know, Paddy someone I think, i stand corrected he was with Joe Troy, bad or bitter, he was fairly correct from talking to a Shinrone person who while acknowledging Shinrone were lucky on Saturday after Belmont done everything bar win, Birr were brutal yesterday for 55 mi...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

Birr battled well but too little too late. Kk to dominate offaly for next couple of years. Don't think kk will do a whole pile outside of offaly unless they are going to come up with a better style of hurling. Was travelling and listening to Birr match live on R103 Facebook page, Birrs form of the ...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

Not getting into this but Tullamore would be a dual Senior Club as would St. Rynaghs to mention 2, both have won senior finals be it not the same year but would normally be involved in knock out stages of Championship most years.. two big picks I admit yet many players are involved on both Senior te...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

If shinrone play like they did tonight in the final they'll be bet out the gate. Well they were underdogs against Rynaghs and again today despite some saying they woukdnt win, Belmont destroyed them in the final group game to finish group winners and semi finalists, lucky or not Shinrone have sudde...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

I did predict as a possibility Shinrone would win by a late goal above yesterday 😝, Belmont losing that game one has to wonder, it was almost "Mayoesque".. that was a painful loss indeed, its a long road back to another semi funext year etc. whatever about how Belmont lost it, you have to ...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

Fairplay out of curiosity earlier rounds v who? I saw them play versus Kilkormac I think anyone that was at it would agree it was written off because of conditions - a draw would of been fair result. Next game they were awful. They then beat C/G by about 8 or 9 pts a team kk struggle over might I a...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

fair enough, I just cannot see how Birr have improved so much from earlier rounds (maybe indeed they have) but by all accounts while they were good in QF Ballinamere were poor, so somewhere in the middle lies Birrs current form, KK have been around now long enough to get results when they need them ...

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

indeed yes, as a neutral it will be nice to have at least one "new" team in a final..

Re: League & Championship hurling 2022

Great debate above and some excellent valid points, alternate between OCP and SBP seems a very good idea moving hurling finals (and semis) around will help keep hurling promoted North and South Offaly.. Ime going to try my hand at predicting the two semi finals scores, I'll probably be way out but h...
