The state of this thread.

Great win yesterday. We could end up on 6 points which would be decent plus we could and should have won more games.

Forget about club representation CB, or who may or may not add to the current mix and let what Andy is building continue to evolve and improve. When that happens everyone good enough or fit enough will want to be on board. When the current injury list frees itself up there will be sufficient competition for starting jersey and places on match day panel.

Big statement from the wee Bannsiders today I feel.

[123Bigball]

Big statement surely. Another red for big Niall.  Be hard to defend that tackle though. On a rugby field you would probably be citied and get 6 games to go with it. Aidan MC aleese quality player for Pg1. Were Pg1 missing many men banside

[bannside]

Totally disagree Bigball. BIg Niall at 6 ft 6 always going to look a bit clumsy against  someone a foot smaller. No malice whatsoever in the tackle. More often sinned against than sinned. What a player by the way, must have caught 8 balls against the head. Is there a better midfielder in. Antrim football atm ?

[123Bigball]

Leading with the elbow to opponents head it looked like. Very lucky to not cause a serious injury. Ref must have seen the malice to issue the straight red. Some fielder of the ball all the same and chipped in with couple of points. Pg1 flying atm

[EOC1923]

Dejavu with both things, the McKeever red card and Portglenone setting a blistering pace in the league while everyone else missing 10 players 😆

[stiffler]

Portglenone look a different beast than the last number of seasons. It looks like they now have that killer instinct they had been lacking in crunch games. It will take a good team to stop them the year.

The only slight concern I would have is discipline.

Casement's did look excellent but discipline  looks a problem....
Ref had a game, sympathetic in conditions and got the reds spot on .... second one reaction to the first...
Casement's look super fit ...ahead of the pack....with a full squad who must have worked hard over the winter...

Marty Johnston looked the best on view....

Casement's are 'stand outs' atm, but this is March.....a long road to travel......

Far too early in season to be making statements like this. PG1 always come out of the traps early, too early.

How they do this year will depend on how they go in the last 10 mins of tight knock-out championship games.

That'll be the real test. Have they got over this barrier?

[Lár na páirce 1]

Who do Casements play in the Ulster club anyway?

[JimStynes]

Worth a tenner on PG1 and Mayo the year!

[NatSoSaff]

Creggan missing a few too many at the min but take nothing away from PG1 they look impressive and they  are a very well balanced side. Cargin getting beat was surprising considering the amount of men lamh dearg have missing. Moneyglass had another good win. St.Brigids look to be in bother.
