Re: New Jerseys Please - A call to all Fans

I think it's actually not that bad at all. After all, the red bit was out of their hands - as I said before, the sponsors insisted, and to take any chances with sponsors in this environment would be madness. OY13 compared us to Tyrone a while back, but I did hear the numbers regarding the upcoming ...

Worth a look at in challenges/O'Byrne Cup - Brian Darby, Pauric Sullivan, Eoghan Byrne + Anton Sullivan (maybe too early yet, but will be some talent) Lets make one thing clear before the rest of this post. Rhode are ...

Re: Anton Sullivan

I didint realise that regarding Declan. He was a great minor- on Rhode team that got to two minor finals in a row 87&88, beat kilcormac and were beaten controversialy by Clara the following year (if the memory is correct).

Fair enough so.

Best of luck Rhode Runner over the coming weeks :wink:
