great match but thought the referee was generous to Tyrone slightly!!

fair play on Tyrone though, 6 points down and there didn't seem to be any way back. i backed them at 6/1 only had a few quid on them but good value

It could get very messy tomorrow if Tipp go at it full pelt. That is as good as an U-21 team as I have seen in a while. If they get a decent lead all the seniors will be taken off sharpish.

Minder they are plus 18!!! do you think they could keep it that close?? thats a hell of a handicap

usually it was the county champions from the year before and then invites. also past winners were always invited. its a cracking day out, also helps when your club is involved and gets to the latter stages.

we participated in both last year (hurling and football) I'd imagine St Johns and Rossa (antrim) would have done the same in the past. how many clubs would be doing the double and has it every been won in the same year?

Milltown whats your odd's on survival in Div 2. Do you think you will stay up? Glenarm look certs to come into it.

Rossa had some great young players on Sunday. Forwards were not scared to take a run at the Dunloy defence, especially Armstrong and McGuinness. Pity their shooting was off.

What was Ger Cutt up to?

will we stay up? will depend on the next two games, we played Carey last week, we won handy and that puts them below us on points and score difference, should we stay ahead of them then we will be grand.

having no manager this year has hampered us. with the success of last year we have a lot of boys away on extended holidays, ok for the footballers but real bad for the hurling team. such a small pool of players to use and they play football also. I'm even back playing for the senior team so that gives you an idea of where we are at!!!

Carey were poor enough against us and we have to play Gaels twice st Paul's and Lamhs at home. The Johnnies will be tough also. nothing guaranteed till the last day, but its in our own hands.

simply drill a hole through the clip and helmet put the rivets in and pop them with the gun.

GAA Discussion / Re: Shoulder surgery
August 17, 2010, 04:09:54 PM
yes i think your right with building up the muscle around your shoulder.

but its an odd injury in that even the slightest movement can pop it. you can bench press a massive weight do 100 press ups but then go for a ball get a shove in the back your arm shunts forward and springs back and hey presto your on your way to the Royal to get it back in again!!!

as you have said it can go back in now easy enough, but after about 2/3 hours your in agony!!!

he said he was staying??? who writes this stuff

thing is a club has probably nominated him and this is the process in Derry.

lets wait and see what 'Baker' says first

on another note, Any shocks this weekend in the Championship? St Galls to win by a point or two. tight pitch and players missing, playing against a charged up MG will be a lot tighter than people imagine, thats for sure

have popped my shoulder many times, not good. but went to the specialist in Belfast years ago, works out of the Musgrave Hospital. after a couple of discussion with him i decided not to get the operation.

as i was nearing my playing time he said not to bother as the operation would cause a lot of discomfort, I'd be out of work for a while (i consider it ;)) but the main reason was that the operation was never always going to be a success!!!! basically I'd lose a certain amount of mobility in the shoulder and it could be restrictive.

so 7 years later I'm still playing away and touch wood I've been grand, i know come the days when the arthritis kicks in it will be sore but i am hope they will have drugs for that :D

any eejit that buys a ticket of this website needs a slap in the face!!!

i've never paid over the price stated on the ticket and never will, you always get a ticket from a fan and he'll/she'll sell it a cost price.

200 euro for the Hill, ha

big selection worries for Cody this year, usually the team has picked itself but one or two doubts over fitness and Cody will make tough decisions, for me he  has to put out the strongest 15, cant have players that aren't 100% fit on final day.

All the Tipp boys will be going at the Kilkenny boys at 100 mph and any player carrying a knock will know all about it in the first ten minutes. the team that start with momentum has the edge. Kilkenny have always had great starts and good finishes.

what do you do if you were Cody? Start Henry and Walsh or bring them on?
