Re: best offaly hurler in living memory

Brian whelahan was the most elegant hurler I ever saw. He reading of the game , his vision, his striking, his hooking and blocking, his pace, his leadership and his ability to make room. He could hurl in a phone box. He had everything. Martain hanamy was the greatest left corner back ever to play , ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

If we are to be honest, we had two real games in this league and we didn't win either and even in the meath game I question our defence. We were blessed in the 80s we had é Coughlan and in the 90s we had k kinahan to dominate the square , now if teams go direct we are vulnerable. Westmeath have t Do...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

That's a collapse, we had a 6 point lead, at home against a team that didn't need to win and we didn't see it out so even if we won we were unlightly to gain promotion anyway.
We need to find a full back

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

Greenfield I agree kiely didn't have a great game against birr but kk were very poor that day. B conneely struggled on J gorman in 2017 final but he was man of the match in this year's final on d hayden. Is J gorman better than d hayden.? The truth is some days even the best players don't play to th...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

Ye not been fair to kiely, he is only 23 I think, last year in the regalation game against kerry he was cb and was our best player, yes he has got too many red cards but he should mature with age. P camon must be in on the way back so maybe that could free kiely up for midfield but we need him in th...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

I agree I should not have named players, my point is we have to be fair to lads some are not over physical so why not put a few men around them to allow them develop.
I see where Joe maher was not asked into the football panel, would he bring a bit of power to the hurlers? Where is Sean Dolan?

Re: Offaly Hurling 2020

Honestly I am disappointed with the team especially the full back line. M cleary or a Flynn are only average club players. D Egan is not a full back. J Dempsey can't do shortt accurate Puck outs. P Geraghty is not a centre forward and l Langton at full forward is a joke. S cleary and B murphy are to...
