The buzz word is "throw ball"

Are managers now employing this 'chant' in training sessions?

Funny I said the same thing, I was far closer to the play but someone on the far side of the pitch can see a throw ball through a crowd of players.
Maybe they all have super power vision

Not far away although Ballycastle the surprise package

Is the Donaghy who was CHB for Cushendall against Cushendun the boy who used to play for st endas? If so I'd imagine he's a big loss to them.

I was looking for him the other night as he's always under the ball or picking up the pieces, which they were lacking v Ballycastle. Body blow for St Endas. I think he's from Cushendall?

Did he not used to be a decent goalie for cushendall a few years ago?

The line-ups in the league looked interesting. Loughgiel are basically full strength bar James McNaughton I think? Dunloy can still put out a strong 15 even without county boys but just not quite strong enough. Ballycastle aren't too bad. I thought Boyd in defense for them looked decent for the county in other years. St Johns looked strong enough too. I am guessing a few boys dropped off the county like McCallin and Shannon and boys like that. (or maybe they're allowed to play?)

yeah hes originally Cushendall.

Looking at the line up Endas were missing a few key players as well, Diamond, Maskey and McGoldrick

The minor hurlers won 1-14 to 0-6.

And the seniors won handy enough also by 15 points, racking up 6 goals as well.

Anyone else at the hurling?

It was an easy enough victory in the end though down will rue a lot of wides too. We definitely have a few things to tighten up on but all in all a fairly clinical performance and McManus getting game time a big plus. With Molloy to come back there'll be a bit of competition for places.

Down despite being beaten still had maybe one of the best performers in diathi sands.

Stand outs for me - cunning and Elliot in forwards. Maskey caused problems with direct running which I didn't realise was part of his game and the half back line very steady. There is a lot of pace in our forward line. I think McNaughton and McManus need a lot more match sharpness but it will come. Nugent I thought was a bit lost in half forwards but when at FF caused havoc.

Hopefully we can get to Croke park with this bunch.  Shouldn't fear teams in this competition considering we played Div 1..

We just can't afford to be complacent.. focused and ruthless when we can
