Brilliant result from Down U20s

Conor Laverty has to be commended for the work he has done this past three years.

Kildare up next who beat Dublin in the Leinster final.

Kerry in the other semi final

There will definitely be changes to the starting 15 named and players on the bench.  I'd be amazed if Murdock doesn't play. Down at home and Donegal is a bit of a mess... Down to win by 2.

Is the new rule not - if not named in the 26 you can't play? How good is he? Looks very powerful.

you can make changes to the named starting team but not to the 26.

Murdock is a very good player, loads of potential to be even better than he already is, was one of Down's best players throughout the league and would have definitely featured if not for the u20 final, very unfair on players to have these competitions clashing and having to miss out on one

Jeez thats mad. So you can change starters but not subs! Only in the GAA

i mean some of the subs named on the 26 can start on the first 15 but nobody outside the 26 can come in except in exceptional circumstances

I think you can name 4 stand by players that can be brought into the 26. So there could be a few late changes yet

They can only come in if medical information presented to withdraw any of the 26 though

Mitchell's gone seriously ? Flip me then the fixtures need redone for div 4 yes ?

Teams will just get a bye the week they are meant to play them.. Has happened over the years when Kinlar, Killyleagh and Mitchell's struggled to field before

Hearing that div 4 starts 14th April now so must be redrawn fixtures.
Anyone for Offaly ?  Am heading down today stopping overnight. Was booked ages ago but dead rubber now

Mitchell's gone seriously ? Flip me then the fixtures need redone for div 4 yes ?

Down v Longford tonight.
Looks an experimental team so prob realise even if we win both games we will still miss out on promotion.
Good to see McElroy back from injury. Havern at midfield is worth a look.
Think there will be a couple of switches before throw in though.

Truth you are right they seem a really likeable bunch of players
Watching them yesterday. Working hard and no bullshit along the way
The bad eggs in the squad have been finally routed out
The management team deserve huge credit for that
The last few years boys thought they were doing Down GAA a favour by playing. Not anymore. I would say the same boys now want back into the squad
Kerr Havern O Hagan Gilmore to start v Tipp
Donnelly Murdock Mid
McEvoy McParland in defence
O Hare Kane nets
That leaves 6-7 positions up for grabs

Team for Tipp

O'Hare
Fegan
McEvoy
Francis
Annett
McParland
Francis
Donnelly
Murdock
Docherty
McAleenan
O'Hagan
Kerr
Havern
Gilmore

Great options on the bench too

Don't think Murdock will feature as he will be part of the Down U20s. Is there not a rule U20s can't play senior until their Cship is over ?

Is it online ticketing for the match on Sunday or can you pay at the gate?

No cash as it's Ulster gaa taking the money not Down GAA. No cash at gate unfortunately.

I just seen the Kingdom have a notice up on FB that the u20 B final is off due to the CCC stopping it. Whats going on there?

Annaclone lodged an appeal that Ballyholland played ineligible player in their semi final

Have no sympathy for clubs who play ineligible players in this day and age, if they have played an ineligible player then bye bye Ballyholland.

Though nothing will eclipse Tullylish bringing in the ringer for Banbridge a few years  ago in an underage division D or E final. The ringer scored a load v St Johns and Tullylish never put your man who scored everything in the team photo.
The coaches who tried that should have been banned for life for pure stupidity LOL

That was last season

Is there a senior panel listed already? I thought there was a rule about training in November and December?

Near sure that's not applicable to trialling players but stand to be corrected

I see the same rubbish still being churned out on here. Never read so much rubbish on a forum than on here. And it's the same half dozen wums.

And yet you read it & reply to it?

Ooh clown face back to school for you tomorrow
