I don't care what anyone says, but social media is a big part of today's mental health issues.

Everyone is connected but nobody is actually taking the time to meet and talk properly.

This.

Talk to people.

I was thinking that it would be under lights of a Saturday evening......maybe an incorrect assumption.

Arrah, Gracefield would be perfect. Feck neutral venues.

Ara whist with this aul negative talk.

We will welcome Carphone Dessie with open arms this Sat to Pearse Park.

Beat them 4 years ago with 7 All Ireland medal winners in the ranks. Longford have 3 games under the belt so expect a wee surprise.

Final will be in Portlaoise I would imagine.

Sure that it won't be in Mullingar? Surely handier for both counties. Unless ye're going to lose!

We'll get to the final anyway.

I see that there have been attempts to sabotage Eastwood in Foyle. Shameful stuff altogether.

I reckon that we'll finish top half anyway.
With a bit of luck, might take 2nd. We've more lads on board. We had no depth last year.

I assume this is wrong?

SF: 17 Nov. St. Joseph's Miltown Malbay (Clare) v Clonmel Commercials (Tipperary)) in Dungarvan 1:30pm. Surely over in Clare somewhere?
AZ, you might know this. Is there differing rules from Munster and Leinster Councils regarding home advantage for club games? Surely Ferbane for instance could host a game, given that it, from what I've seen in pictures and heard from others held a massive ladies game the other day. Obviously the LGFA are a different organisation, but still?

I note that Bracknagh played their game in Gracefield, while Shannonbridge played their two Leinster games to date in the Faithful Fields. Yerselves (Ferbane) obviously played in OCP, but that's a given, regarding senior champions init? Or init not?🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Armstrong is a complete ignoramus. Just cos she's the Alliance Chief Whip at Stormont, she thinks she owns the place. Completely up her own arse - a vindictive & nasty piece of work altogether.

Remember on Nolan once she was talking absolute shite about how the Republic still had a lot to do to become as liberal and progressive as the UK, funny I dont remember when the UK had a PM who was openly gay and non-white. Sure even Tony Blair didnt become a catholic until he was out of office for fear of the shit storm it would cause. Nope I cant stand her and I once voted Alliance but they seem to be annoying me more and more

Blair converting might have something to do with Catholics not allowed to be the British PM.

When and where did you make that one up?

A quick google should tell you that although the law is not fully explicit for PM there is something to it....

The law was only changed in the last couple of years methinks. Was the same for the line of succession to the throne (or whatever it's called) until around the same time.

RE should win. Bit of infighting in the Rynagh's camp, coupled with Diarmuid Horan gone back out foreign. He made an impact in the final and semi for them from the bench.
Wasn't wrong!

Would be nice to see Offaly game played somewhere other than Portlaoise in December.
If Portarlington has lights.......

If we were at home.....Gracefield

Eoin Reddan was picked when he was playing with Wasps. Zebo likely would have been picked but himself and Schmidt didn't get along.

Darrell will probaly have him back in the Squad. Going back a while Keith Wood was picked when playing with Harlequins
Tommy Bowe was with the Ospreys as well, wasn't he?
Until 2012. Schmidt took over in 2013
Was Eoin Reddan not back with Leinster at that stage?

That sounds like the usual messaging from a team who want to be taken lightly!! These reported dis-harmonies tend to disappear suddenly when the ball is thrown in!

Not from Rynagh's. There was a couple of incidents among players. Verified by reliable club members.
