Yeah i heard the team will play that way too kaiserchief

Personally I think Brian Whelahan picked a very strong team to play Antrim.
Firstly the starting 15 is very unpredictable in which way they will line out..Rumours were going around that David Kenny played full forward in a recent practice match, so maybe he will start on the edge of the square.
The players in which Whelahan has brought in says a lot about what way Offaly will hurl..Players like Ger Healion, David Kenny, Colin Egan and Kevin Brady are tall strong and physical, you can expect Offaly not allowing Antrim win any 50/50 ball easily. Offaly will be very physical and will hope to use our aerial threat.
It is clear from this selection and in the previous games selection, Brian Whelahan realised things needed to change and infairness too him he is not afraid to ring the changes.
Expect a full hearted game from all involved as the team have a point to prove

Good man yerself, why don't you ring Kevin Ryan and let him know while you're at it!

Kaiserchief, Killeighman, Sam, any chance ye'd make yereselves useful and let us know how Antrim propose to line out?

Killeighman, anyone suffering from any grave illnesses you'd like to inform us of, before anyone's family finds out.

Let's go get 'em!!!!

COME ON OFFALY!!!!!

Good man POTH. One can only go on what he was told by an official close to the team. Do you think i would really make that up like? I have a bit more sense than that. The offaly county players are right in what they are saying by people throwing digs at people from behind screens on this. I know where im not wanted and i wont be back for a while

Offaly 10 antrim 13 halftime score

never in doubt!! well dont to all involved

Sounds like Offaly missed 6 or 7 easy goal chances on the radio so they won it the hard way but at least a bit of pride is restored after midweek

no harm bt them that way after all the crack they went on with in the league

A win at last , well done and keep her lit for the weeks ahead .

Super result, not easy to get a win up there. Fair play lads, just enjoy the next day and get what ye can out of it. Sean Cleary I owe ya a pint, had the -1 handicap

well done to all. got over the line today seem to create at least 8 good goal chances score two .
the win is huge for these lads and b whelahan especially after the last day . they showed a bit of fight and pride today .
well done to all involved.
presure is off now . lads can enjoy training and enjoy the next day .
offaly hurling in july sounds good .
