                                  Winners of games 2-6 go into the quarter-finals
                                    Losers of games 1-6  go into the qualifiers




Winners are not those who never fail, but those who never quit!

Not a bad first game for us and whoever is taking over the team..

Any word on that? U16 & U17 inter-county tournaments starting soon (if not already started?) and they're using these games as the trials as far as I know

U17s were playing fermanagh away last sat lost 4-13 to 2-9 something like that, they were missing a good few though. Heatd tom kelly + eddie kinsella in for minor job.. they'd nearly want to have it sorted by now..

U16's hammered Wexford and were missing 4/5 strong lads. Very good team this one
Heard Eddie Kinsella as well so must be something to it

Just wondering doe's either have any coaching  experience/qualifications  ?

Near sure saw Tom Kelly on the sideline for Joseph's this year? Kinsella has done a good bit with St Paul's underage the last few years and this years Minors too. Was also involved with St Conleth's ladies at one stage, probably others too

GAA-SMART

Probably need an element of experience and ability to relate to young players, also no harm if possible to get someone from the outside the county into the management team

Let them at it sure they'll be grand........they will until they come up against professional set up's even at this level

Nothing against the lads mentioned above but with the best will in the world they'll be making it up as they go along, why not start they at a lower age group do their coaching courses and see how they get on.

GAA-SMART

Any movement on it ? The 17s tournament on, new Management team would want to be out watching and preparing surely?

El Jefe

If it's Kinsella he'll be at them anyway, his young lads on it

Don't know anything about Tom but Eddie was involved with Laois development squads in 2014 and 2015.
