Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Lads are getting totally carried away with themselves after last night. Yes it was nice to see them compete with a Liam McCarthy team and I actually thought the fitness levels were good, the pressing from our full forward line in particular was impressive. Kiely is an absolute warrior and needs pro...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Dublin in Croke Park in 2018. Working back, beat Wexford down there in 2016. And a win over Limerick in 2015. When was the last time point we actually got a point in top flight hurling? Offaly beat Carlow in Division 1B in 2019. Carlow were Liam McCarthy that year. Played 4 games and lost them all ...

Any chance you could put the word “club” in the title of the thread?

Re: Parish Rule

Considering both clubs were senior about 15 years ago its a considerable fall. Ballyskenagh have gone from being in a senior hurling final to being an amalgamated club in the 4th of 5 tiers of Offaly hurling in the space of 20 years. Makes you respect what the likes of Seir Kieran, Kinnitty and Coo...

Re: Parish Rule

I suppose there is many factors what is the club doing to keep the players attracted to the club and wanting the young lads to stay? Going on what is leaving it would suggest not much. Considering both clubs were senior about 15 years ago its a considerable fall. Maybe the club developed them and n...

Re: Parish Rule

Following on from Luke Watkins’ controversial transfer from Ballyskenagh/Killavilla to Shinrone the Carney twins are now looking to follow the same path. If you were a member of Ballyskenagh/Killavilla you’d have to fairly disillusioned with all this. https://www.offalyexpress.ie/news/gaa/1403598/ta...

Re: Condolences Thread

An amazingly gifted hurler. A joy to watch. One of the greatest forwards to ever grace the game. 1 All Ireland SHC 1981 2 Leinster SHC 1980, 1981. 6 Offaly SHC 1967, 1978, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1985 1 All Star 1981 Corner Forward on the Offaly Team of the Millenium.

Re: Offaly Senior A Hurling Championship 2023

Correct. So theoretically they can start 2024 playing Senior B and work their way to Senior A. The reality of it for K/K next year is by the end of the group stage of the championship they will probably have 21 or 22 guys who can only hurl Senior A for the rest of the year. The 18 named, plus the 3 ...

Re: Offaly Senior A Hurling Championship 2023

My understanding is the following. Technically, all those who played in the winning Senior B final are graded Senior next year. That would mean that Kilcormac-Killoughey would have around 40 players graded Senior next year. However, the regrading rules changed about five years ago. Prior to that, t...
