Is there anywhere that all amalgamations at juvenile level can be viewed?

Just ask the lads here! They seem to know everything, especially Clonadmad!

Lack of knowledge here is frightening. Reasons why the players didn't ply are as follows:
Donie Kingston: battling a virus last few weeks and hasn't trained
Colm begley: hip injury and has barely trained
Mark Timmons: another illness and has been in hospital seemingly
Evan O Carroll: is plying with UCD tomorrow night. Has played 5/6 games between county and college in the last 3 weeks.

Give John Sugrue a break like good people and look into the reasons behind these things.

Tuohy won't return.

Only solution here is a lunch time fight behind the school yard once and for all. First man to draw blood loses.

Quality coaches??? Getting coaches in general seems to be a huge issue. I spoke to a member of the u15 football management for 2019 and he said the u15 hurlers have no coaches as nobody wants to do it. Up to 10 people have turned it down.  We need people to put there hand up.

Regarding Colm Begley leaving, the S&C programme in place is fantastic and has picked up hugely with players completing over 10 weeks every Tuesday and Thursday. But the problem is not all players have committed especially the better ones.

"...Quality coaches for all those development teams, in both codes, is imperative and that will necessitate paying them proper expenses.
The Centre of Excellence should make a huge difference and will allow underage dual players to continue play both codes at least up to minor. It's crucial that we see a proper S&C programme extended across all our Development Panels.
I hope Colm Begley's departure hasn't left us short in this area..."

Yep, we'll win all Ireland's in the pubs!

Jack Nolan like a dying dog. Thinks he can still bite but nobody really cares

Fully agree with above. Strong was also dropped but Laois today have said he retired which was wrong. At least report the truth if gonna report anything

Rumors of Gary Welsh gone also

Darren Strong has opted out of the panel it seems.

Pushed out with no return button from what I've heard.

Aren't the teams announced on a Thursday night or Friday morning? Plenty of lads getting cranky coming towards Xmas

The Laois Gaa website is an embarrassment. Fine for club fixtures but absolutely useless for inter county.

Made query few weeks ago. New site incoming seemingly.

Heard they brought their skills to the Under 21 game the other night in the new Laois grounds. Brockin Reily missed some blatant red cards. Referees need to take a good luck at them selves because they are part of the issues

In fairness clonadmad and Burdizzo I can see the medals and cups stacked up out in Clonad from the Midway!

Are Abbeyleix and Ballinakill the same parish? All the clubs mentioned by moregroundhurling are the same parish(I think, correct me if I'm wrong). But then again Parish rule doesnt apply in Laois. We will end up like Carlow with only 5 senior teams and an extremely shallow pool of players to pick from.
