I am not big into hurling but love Splash's posts. Very informative and no resorting to abusing anyone.
Great to see the hurlers making the league semi finals. Let's have an update on yesterday's game Splash and keep up the good work.

There is quite a number going to the green high who would normally have gone to the red high and this may be a factor. Will be interesting to see how the amalgamation works in terms of success on the field.
On another matter, what is the position on tickets for the Antrim game on Sunday given the very low capacity in Corrigan Park?

Quote from: Ed Hardy on December 29, 2023, 04:08:06 PMAny word of the McKenna cup panel?

Surely after watching what happened last year - you can't be expecting a panel to be named - and for it to actually be accurate. You do know who our county manager is don't you?? He named ONE accurate team in the whole of the 2023 season.

I see Johnny's lad is getting started early this year. Name a manager that regularly names a correct starting team. I hate the practice but they are all doing it.

Short memory Wobbler. It's not long since the debacle of Burrenbridge that cost £500k. Paid a massive non refundable deposit of £450k. Who do you think paid for that and are still paying? THE CLUBS.
Why do you think similar could not happen again?
Waken up and .........

Hughes will never have to put his hand in his pocket in Burren club either, great lads. Now we can rest easy as the aristocrats

Is that Danny Hughes?

Them so and so in Kilcoo, bad enough starting a war in the middle east, now they have started storm Babet. What will they get up to next. Probably CL's fault.

Watched the game on TV. Burren had no penetration up front and why would you concede the kickout to a team whose ball retention is so good. Where did Burren's abundance of youth of a few years ago disappear to when you look at the age profile of some of their team yesterday? Plan B seemed to be refer to plan A and continue to play pass the ball sideways on the Kilcoo 45.

Premier Reserve championship, injured Burren player attended to by 2 Kilcoo medics. What's the world coming to? Not a word of that on this forum.

We cannot be sure what was said on the field but we CAN be sure what Clonduff done at the end of the game.

Kilcoo have been in the last 11 finals and have won 10 of them. Now they are in another final.
This is bad for Down at county level and is hindering progress. The other clubs in Down must do whatever it takes to stop this dominance for the good of the county team.

The game in Kilcoo tonight was crap. This was notlhing to do with modern coaching but the reality was one team was superior to l the other. Are you trying to tell me this did not happen in the last 50 years? Of course it did. Memories are short, we all think summers were filled with sunshine, not true.
