Does anyone know how did Offaly do versus Cavan game in the above competition yesterday?. I only saw that Meath beat Westmeath in the second game fixed for yesterday.

Cavan could not field so Offaly received a bye to the final.

Head of NASA: [Barney runs off drunk and wastes his chance at being an astronaut] Well, Homer, I guess that makes you the winner by default...

Homer: Default? The two sweetest words in the English language! De-FAULT! De-FAULT! De-FAULT!

Thanks for clearing that up SID. There was no result in the press, local or national.

Could it be Jason Devery maybe? never heard of a jason delaney?

[bracknaghboy]

Must be Devery from Erin Rovers.
Good to see Maloney doing damage from full forward. He was a key reason for Tullamores success this year and would be a handful for the best of them even at county level in there. He is good at winning ball and Nialler could feed off him. Has Niall ever had a good full forward in there with him in the last 10 years? Good to get the win and a nice spread of scorers, winning is a good habit.

GAA are loking at the future of this competition as a result of Offaly's recent dominance!

Well done to the lads, nice to see few new names in there and getting a win over Meath is no bad thing at any time of the year.
Interesting to see that Graham Reilly kicked 5 pts after coming in as a sub. We will continue to have difficulty against direct pacy forwards, hopefully a few of the young lads can step up to the mark in that regard.

The team yesterday has a few fellas who I'd like to see get a decent run this year in the O'Byrne Cup and the league.
