GAA Discussion / Re: NFL Division 1 2024

Quote from: screenexile on March 03, 2024, 03:20:58 AMI think tonight crystallises what everyone knows... the Dubs are going to be ridiculously hard to beat!

Derry are rightly considered one of the top teams in the country and we should be challenging Kerry and Dublin at the top. The reality is we're a slight step below Kerry (and I think we've maybe surpassed them this year) and a giant leap away from Dublin.

We'd need the Dubs to have an off day and us a phenomenal day to beat them. Having said that I think we are absolutely playing to our full potential this last few years and I'm just happy that we're playing the top teams in Division 1 again.

Maybe in a one off game we could spring a surprise but as things stand I don't see how we could beat the Dubs when it matters. I can see us beating anyone else but the Dubs are on a different planet as things stand and anyone who does beat them will have earned it!!

We may be and probably are a forward or 2 away from an All Ireland and that's ok. From what I've seen the last 2 seasons I don't think we

Bit quick for Derry fans claiming they've surpassed Kerry, having won a league game against them without their star players surely?
Will be interesting to see how the championship unfolds and if Derry's no.2 in the Country tag holds up.

What month is it again ?

Seafoid, why take the bait.
that twit will now use one of his other 8 alias to continue this asinine conversation.

No trolling here. Don't think I said anything controversial, Derry are absolutely flying as my Doire friends remind me constantly. Definitely one of the favourites for silverware that's an obvious surely? They are the dominant team in Ulster and will have their sights set firmly on Sam.
Their wins so far this season have set down a precedent.

Who is in it?
Trillick/Dromore v ?

Yes Dromore refused to take penalties at the end of ET apparently, but they havent been kicked out of the competition unlike other teams who've done the same previously. Would they have any powerful connections in the county board ?

Which other teams in Tyrone were kicked out of the a competition after refusing to take penalties?

Both teams put out, game wasn't replayed.

Quote from: square_ball on September 25, 2023, 11:37:22 AMSomething about a game that late on a Sunday evening that I really hated as a player. I would even prefer to be Stewartstown/Derrylaughan and playing on a Monday evening than that slot on a Sunday.

Any reason for there to be no venue yet for Coalisland v Ardboe? Maybe waiting to see what kind of shape Edendork is after that game yesterday. Not sure what other venue they can use. Pomeroy maybe?

Edendork is an extremely poor venue for a championship game.
2 small turnstiles that create long queues, no stand or anywhere to shelter from the elements, parking is poor and often dangerous, no toilets or shop facilities, no bins anywhere, the pitch is a complete bog, water lying on top of it and cuts up badly.

Sorry I see they interviewed a Stewartstown player. No mention of Galbally

Think he did play for Cookstown at one stage alright. No coverage from teamtalk?

Similar to Stewartstown in that they were relegated in a year when 4 went straight down, no playoffs and a year when a few main players were out a lot of the year. If you ask a Galbally supporter they would disagree with you.

Well done to both teams, brilliant outings.
Will be cheering yous on next Sunday like you were my own, against the farcical club structures in Kerry.
8 senior clubs, resulting in Rathmore being essentially the 9th best team in Kerry. This is what Galbally are tasked with.
Then we have the Clifford's playing junior football even though they won the senior championship 2 months ago?
Aye no bother. Good luck men wishing yous nothing but success next week.

Well done both teams 👍🏻 great to see Tyrone teams doing well and showing the strength of GAA in our county. Tbf would Galbally not be one of the top 10 teams in the county?

Well done the Harps. A brilliant year and hopefully a continuation in the All Ireland series in 2023. Likewise would love to see Galbally fly the Tyrone flag and win Ulster intermediate.

Ah right, wasn't sure of the connection.

Don't agree at all, from a neutral pov it seemed like Dromore were getting the easier free calls.
