Weather today was horrendous

More of the same tomorrow evening
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

I think it's the first time the final has been cancelled. The semi finals were cancelled a couple of times each I think.

First time since last year  ;)

With the early December date it's always a chance of being called off, year before last should have been cancelled as well - St Killians v St Louis, pitch frozen over - was fairly treacherous.

Suits me. I've been to all the St Killian's games this year but at a wedding tomorrow so wasn't going to make it.

Good to see a bit of common sense used with the Mageean final.... a shame the same sense wasnt used for the senior hurling final.  It had an amber warning also.

To be fair makes an even bigger mockery of that decision or non-decision around the county final.

Any word of a re-fix date, wrong to assume it will be next Friday same time and venue?

Heard 3rd January but yeah, just makes that decision even more laughable

It's easier to move a schools final than a senior county final. Not ideal prep leaving it to after Xmas, not extra turkey for the lads.. the following week of the county final the weather and pitches were poor too. But common sense here as the pitches would be this time of year in far worse conditions never mind the wind/rain
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Tuesday 17 December in the Dub

3rd January came from (I assume) the SaffronGael just using their "postponed" graphic from last year (as that's when the refixed game was played)
