Exactly. I know there was talk of a couple of other lads from Kildare but they were maybe a bit matey and that was an issue with the last crew.
Flanno is a great organiser and I'm told some good S&C and other people to be coming in too.

As they were saying the fact that she knew what went wrong for her is serious and she can correct it. And, I say wrong, but she had just qualified for an Olympic Final. That's her level in fairness.

I hope she performs and is happy. Some serious racing these last few nights in the likes of the 1500m and 400m for men. The 400m women's hurdles will be class too.

Flanno is a very good operator and I am not sure if anyone saw that U20 team, but they were the most un-Kildare outfit I've ever seen. There was no looking around to shovel it on or waiting to be told what to do. They really dragged through some games.

In reality there are lads who didn't walkaway but drifted off last year. Lads who would make a huge difference. But they do need structure and fitness. I mean Laois blew us away for strenght and stamina...

The only way is up! (I hope)

When you see that article there is a lot yet to happen around the place.

The lads on comms are asking if there was an issue. He didn't seem to have a kick this time.

Fink just bossed it in fairness.

Sure they know who the main lads are and just seem to let them off.

The tactic clearly isn't working but there is no desire to change it up.

The Police are afraid of them to be honest.

Let's be honest here. There is a mob that think this is great sport.
Associating ideologies to them gives them too much credit, but the lads stirring the pot do have a plan.

For the Dublin riots Prime Time did a timeline and you could teach the socials to rally.

I'm sure it's all our in the open on the platforms in advance so I find it so bad that the police are always caught off guard.

This is a great thread and fair play to the OP and everyone else. It's all what you reckon.
In my college days I was a header but I suffered from insomnia, so it took f all to set me over the edge.

I went on a few dry phases too, but I have tended to avoid certain mates who I just can't keep up with as there were a few days out where I was in bits with them.

I go to monthly counselling to just dump shite and not be bringing it home to the wife all tge time and now I mist say I enjoy a few quiet ones much more.

But, back to the original side of things it's brilliant to be looking at what is going on yourself before it gets too out of hand and people are always much more helpful than you think. Well done.

Just looking at the Gallagher fight. The whole thing seems to be they are rewarding the attackers, but we don't seem to have as many of those fighters this time out.

As a viewer that felt different to McSharry. He just seemed like a winner before it started.

Still let the emotions take over in the medal ceremony but then back to business for the interview.

Hope he brings another one home. It's serious going.

The rowing lads look great as does Kellie. Fingers crossed.

I'm hearing that the Harte thing is just a rumour.

Brian Flanagan will more than likely get it with a very solid backroom team.

But as I said the Kildare-Tom forum is demanding we call Geezer NOW!!!

Will they hang on to Braithwaite? Him and O'brien might work well.

Hope he pushes on and Collins improves. That's a solid pairing if they get more experience.

Big year for Ferguson too.

I think the coaches copped that the judges awarded the front foot fighters.
Jack Markey was sent in on the attack and won.

I admit I'm no expert but our others don't suit that.

Great swimming from McSharry so things picking up.

I think he went for a pass. The technique of the punch...
#29
Kildare forum is lighting up to put the call in to Geezer...

Would the keeper or anyone have taken the long range frees from Walsh? He clearly wasn't on it.

Armagh deserved it I'd say as a neutral.
