Huh. There was an official list at the trials, but I believe that, because of GDPR (I ask you!) the names of the panel weren't divulged. In any case, I was only at one of the trials, but the outstanding player on the field that time was a Port. player. Trouble is, he'd be a dual player, and is probably outstanding at football, too.

Why wouldn't it be true? Port. have one outstanding lad, and another very good lad, so it'd be no surprise.

He's been plagued with injuries, the latest one picked up when he was just returning for R/E in this year's championship. I don't know how long he'll be out, but it must be extremely frustrating for him.

Yes, you'd wonder if a beating like that would knock them back a bit.

Actually, if they play with that tenacity and skill, I wouldn't be shocked, either. Their first touch was way better than Kilmacud's, and they weren't one bit afraid of the physical stuff, either. Croker might suit Ballyhale a bit better, though.
Still and all, super, super win for them. Well done!

Roscrea beat the crap out of Portlaoise last week in the 'C', I think. Something like 2-23 to 1-4.

Well... Offaly hurling was at its lowest ebb at that time, and Offaly certainly would have been ranked below Laois. I think the ease with which R/E won that game was a fair reflection of that fact.

Great win for CB tonight. Aside from the old reliables, one lad that really impressed was Killian Dunne when he came on. Rapparees sort of fell to pieces in the last quarter, though.

The promotion to senior is stupid in kildare, they got caught in promotion game a few days after celebrating 2020 win. Tadgh Forde, cathal mccabe and David Qualter are the main men to be minding.
That game was postponed for some reason.

Um? Not been paying attention? Do 100 lines - "the hurlers were NOT relegated in 2021"!

« on: November 15, 2021, 07:54:47 AM »Hopefully C/B go on now and give the Leinster championship a good go as I think they are a well balanced outfit. They would have been disappointed not to get the chance to represent Laois in 2020, so fair play to them for coming back and winning it again. They showed massive guts to come out on top of the last two games against R/E and B/K where their backs were against the wall.
I believe they face Rapparees of Wexford in the opening round. Can't say I know a lot about them but they had a big win in their own county final so I'd imagine they're decent and C/B will have to be at their best.
Laois clubs are due a good run in the Leinster championship. There has not been much to cheer about in it over the last number of years so hopefully CB can curve that in a few weeks. It wont be easy though as Rapparees are a very good outfit!
I think they're quietly confident, which is certainly a good start. But then, winning two county titles in a few months would give you a certain swagger!

And yet all their playing lives they’ve been registered as Mountrath players
No, that's not quite true. However, I know what you mean - they certainly have been for the last few years.
On top of that, Trumera are developing a knack of attracting players that aren't quite 'theirs'.

« on: November 02, 2021, 10:32:28 PM »Well, as you know, the county board often gets things wrong. St Paul's entered no team at u15, and played w/ RPG - and Trumera played with Mountrath.
Really
here’s one then for you how many registered Trumera players played with mountrath at u15 this year?
Don’t need names
just the number
There's at least two what I'd consider Trumera players. Don't know who they're registered with, to be honest.
