All Ireland U20 2019

[dublin7]

Gas how the morons think when Dublin do well at underage it's down to money! But if Kerry, Tyrone, Cork, Mayo, Kildare, Galway have success, it's down to having good players!

Dublin have a very good development system, which was zero to do with Games Development Funding. Although despite our huge playing numbers, we can't get a good run of success at minor.

At this stage, all out of our U20s would have plenty of games under their belt at senior club level. This is a huge advantage over most other counties, because the standard is so high, and in particular, so deep in Dublin. Every team littered with culchies to, which again helps increase the standard.

Why Portlaoise?

Surely Semple Stadium would be a better venue and more neutral.

Portlaoise tends to get more of these football semis and finals than Semple for some reason?
There's a double header on this time. Don't know who with and whether that might explain or further confuse the decision.

Nothing to do with money at all
Who does all the athletic development and S&C with these lads in clubs and county panels?
I'd love to get a few of these Dublin GAA volunteers down our way. They must be miracle workers

And yet, and yet almost no player from a minority background has come through onto the county panels in Dublin.
Where is all participation money being spunked?

Bryan Cullen is in charge of the S&C progammes for all Dublin football teams senior and underage (not sure about hurling) He was originally with Leinster and in charge of their S&C

Interesting on that note that Tyrone's S&C coach has went the other way into rugby and that is the academy as opposed to the "full" setup.

I'm sure all backroom staff and all managers for county and club teams are as equally generous with their time and do it purely for the love of the game without taking a cent from the county board/club.

In fairness Cullen seems to be doing a good job, and probably getting less money than Lukasz Kirszenstein who is doing the S&C for the Galway hurlers.

Why Portlaoise?

Surely Semple Stadium would be a better venue and more neutral.

If it was a Kerry instead of Cork in the final it would be played in a Munster venue as that seems to be the case for most of these neutral county underage and club matches. Cork more often or not seem to get Tullamore or Portlaoise for these games.

A rare occurrence and no doubt the traveling Kerry support were bemused that they had to travel outside of Munster for such a game.

Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story. More anti Kerry drivel as usual.  People do nothing but moan on this forum.

I don't do anti anything. I'm one of the most fair and balanced posters on here. You on the other hand are a WUM.

When don't your clubs spend money on GPO rather than 200 euro a session to outside manager on adult teams? In kerry we went back to basics and looked at plan for our elite young players. The Currans is excellent training facility. Look.at our minor teams in recent years

How much did Kerry group give for that facility?

Our club team is managed by a former player and he doesn't take a cent
Same with all our underage
All volunteer, we haven't seen a GPO at our pitch in years
We pay a coaching contribution to the county board every year but we never see the worth of it either in the local schools or the few lads who we encourage to go onto a county underage panel

There is no matching funding available for us to get a gpo, even if we teamed up with 4 neighbouring clubs.
The club barely runs from year to year as fundraising is a drain on every community and we don't have any businesses  jn the area capable of giving us a decent sponsorship

Could u20 only have a 2 year existence?
