17-14 now

Might have been 16-15  had Wilson not fluked that  respotted black to win an earlier  frame

Realistically, Jones has to win the next 4,  so the odds are Wilson  will get a chance or two to win  the frame he needs. But he's not  had a chance to get into  his groove.

Thoughts on the very large protest versus the very small counter protest in Dublin today? The Shinners didn't seem to be popular with the majority of protesters.

If you are "popular" with that bunch of goons you've got a problem

What people's thoughts on the U20s going forward? Watched Roscommon in Connaught final. They look decent which you'd expect. Think it's Kerry vs Meath in other semi. We've had some talented players past few years. Hopefully they continue to make the breakthrough.

Think we would beat the pick of the other 3 teams left.

On RTÉ news there the coverage seemed to be filmed on a mobile phone while an anti abortion protest also mentioned was filmed with a proper TV camera.

The Irish are the biggest hypocrites on the planet with regard to immigration. The Irish government were lobbying the Biden administration recently regarding undocumented Irish in the US. Currently estimated at about 50K in number. (probably all unvetted military age males as well, shock horror)

Absolute hypocrites, they should simply state that if the US throws them out that they'll be allowed come home.

All Ireland B semi finals are on this weekend also.  inaugural staging of that competition

This Saturday
Westmeath v Limerick in Semple Stadium, Thurles at 1pm

On Sunday
Down v Mayo in Breffni park at 1pm

Embarrassing that Mayo were let into that competition. There are plenty of weaker counties that this competition would mean more to.
