Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

In regards to supporters from the likes of kk etc bringing small support. It's u20, other counties don't place that high of a value onto it. That's a simple fact. Senior is the end all and be all now. When it was u18 and u21 it was a bit different because you could play your full team without restri...

Leo o connor will be next senior manager. Whether he's suited or not will not be considered. He s next man up.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Have u20s ever got it?. Its senior panel only. County boards struggle as it is with just senior panel, imagine adding 30 u20s to it aswell.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

https://www.thesun.ie/sport/gaa-hurling/4832699/martin-dolphin-offaly-galway-hurling/amp/ Article on Martin Dolphin from 2019. States that counties in Liam Mc, Joe Mc or Christy Ring could no longer avail of this. So I don’t know how Kerry are allowed. The joys of being part of Munster GAA I assume...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

I think it’s time the MGT go whether there is not enough experience in the coaching set up but there is something seriously wrong . If this was any other manager the local press would be calling for his head .This is worse than when Stephen Wallace was there and he got the chop mid season . Time fo...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

Kk know what the bigger picture is for them, win a minor or u20 is irrelevant to them and the bigger counties. Their priority is solely on player development and bringing lads through to senior. If you are good enough for senior, you play senior. It's not about wether they are needed or not.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

You know well why. Relive last year all over again for one, egos need to be massaged. U20 mgt don't want any of them playing senior, senior want them only playing senior. The players themselves want to win here and now. Lads on those panels will never play county after u20. This is it for them.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

In regards to oisin been taken off it could well be a managed return to hurling for him. He has had terrible run of Injury and its a phased return to play. Which is what should have happened with ravenhill.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Lads here still don't know what is more important. U20 is a developmental championship. Offaly at all costs must win the joe mcdonagh. Having said all that I wouldn't be surprised if the u20s didn't play, offaly will hammer meath.
