GAA Discussion / Best Club Championship
April 28, 2009, 11:54:42 PM
With a bit of bias I have to say the Derry championship is probably the best in Ulster, Armagh are a one team county and Tyrone don't seem to have much of a buzz about their championship. What about the other teams in Ulster, do St Galls or Cavan Gaels face much opposition?

Although my beloved Lavey are no longer feared by the rest of the county..I still enjoy it with one of 4 or 5 teams capable of winning John Mc Laughlin and 2 or 3 more capable of causing an upset.

GAA Discussion / Doire v Mhuineacháin 24/5/09

So League finals have passed us by, both teams suffered defeat at the hands of Munster teams, what sort of Omens do you think this has set out now for the Championship 1st round clash of the titans? Were both teams keeping their cards close to their chest in the hope of fooling their Ulster rival? Or were both teams simply just shockingly bad. Are the Bradley brothers and Freeman relied too much on and who has the strongest bench with the biggest number of options?

GAA Discussion / Serious contenders for Sam
April 19, 2009, 11:36:47 PM
Who do you rate as contenders for Sam and in what order. My opinion based on current form:

Front Runners
Tyrone
Kerry
Cork

Realistic Chasers
Galway
Dublin
Mayo
Derry
Monaghan

Still a bit to do

Meath
Armagh
Donegal
Down
Wexford
Kildare

Wont make an impact but might case an upset

Fermanagh
Westmeath
Tipp
Sligo
Antrim
Cavan
Limerick
Roscommon
Leitrim
Laois
Louth
Wicklow

Might win a match, can't see anything after that (no disrespect)
Offaly
Longford
Clare
Carlow
London
Waterford

Not next nor near it
New York


By the way this is my opinion on how I think things stand, so no personal attacks please. Also please give your own giving the above format if you wish.

I'm planning on staying down at the weekend of the Nat League, does anyone know any good Hotels that are quite cheap (roughly 40euro pp), I've checked Skylon, Regency and Jurys all quite dear about 70euro pp. Is the Rathmines travel Lodge close to Croker?

GAA Discussion / Have Galway been found out?
April 14, 2009, 03:25:50 PM
Galway had an impressive start to the season, against lesser teams such as Donegal, Westmeath, Dublin and a poor Tyrone, with a defeat to Mayo a total hammering by Kerry and a draw with Derry is the hype really just a lot of hot air? Against a team that can man-mark Meehan and more than challenge their midfield, are Galway just average opposed to front runners for Sam?

GAA Discussion / Tommy Mc Guigan Ban
April 01, 2009, 11:20:43 PM
Tyrone attacker Tommy McGuigan may be facing a four-week ban following an incident involving Derry's Sean Marty Lockhart during last Saturday's NFL clash at Omagh.

The Central Competitions Control Committee met on Tuesday to review evidence of the incident, and are expected to propose a four-week suspension for the Ardboe clubman, which would rule him out of Sunday week's final round NFL Division 1 game against Mayo. If that happened, McGuigan would have the option of appealing to the Central Hearings Committee.

GAA Discussion / Derry V Donegal
March 31, 2009, 02:27:53 AM
So can Derry beat Donegal by 5+ points to make the league final (provided Kerry beat Galway at home)??

Have we learned from Tyrone?
What changes will Cassidy implement?
Do we really want to be in the league final this year after crashing and burning in last years championship?
