Champion the wonder horse, seeing it was 38 years since I played u-12, I could be forgiven for forgetting that the Emmets had to join with Swatragh.  But you're spot on with that as when I went to St. Pats most of the Emmets did indeed play for the Davitts.

Kilrea had many very good players but we just weren't coached.

Interestingly, I began reading Siege of Jadotville and saw a reference to the Balubas.  Here's me thinking they were just a figment of the Swatragh imagination/sense of humour.

Watching the Senior Camogie final livestream at the moment.  The weemin are leadin.

I'm not devastated. In fact I've never been devastated by any GAA team winning any trophy. I am happy for some of the ladies I know on the panel, but beyond that I have little interest.

There seems to be a misunderstanding on your behalf. I don't begrudge Slaughtneil their success. I just don't enjoy the dreary, cynical brand of football they employ.

Happy to clear up the confusion.

Congrats to the Camógs of Slaughtneil, great win. :)

Have a pair of free (adjacent) Lower Cusacks for the club finals -- PM if interested, on a first come first served basis.

I'm disappointed with the final result and while there will be internal incriminations and investigations about what went went wrong and what might have been, a sincere grma to the Emmets for keeping Derry exiles entertained this year in all three codes.   

Doire abu.

You're supposed to lose one to win one. Not many sides get a third bit at the cherry..

There wasn't much entertainment to be had from watching the footballers. Unless you count laughing at the hypocrisy of them complaining about cynical fouls.

Not many, but some do. Nemo came back from 01 and 02 final defeats to win in 03. There may be others that I can't think of.  But it's a long long road. Certainly there are more examples of teams winning on the second bite.
