Antrim Hurling

[north_antrim_hound]

Johnnycool I see reports of Carlow players at their "black bastard" I'm assuming sledging of Down players. Not their first rodeo

That kind of muck has been going on for years, I remember down in Laois with our Hurlers  a few years back even their backroom team was getting stuck in with the British stuff after a shemozzle at the whistle. Further back pinky got the line reacting badly to the same thing. I think the accepted stance always was just don't react unless the score board.

That stuffs going on the full time, St Thomas' were at it against cushendall, banagher got the same a couple of weeks back and not the first time carlow been at it! Liam Watson had the right idea when same happened him against tipp. think twice about saying it again after that

Any of the southern teams engaging in this are letting themselves down more than they even realise themselves.

Call it out after every game it happens in and shame them publicly. Bring it to the refs attention during the games and get it into referees report, so it will have to be dealt with.

How stupid are the southern teams resorting to the Brit / black bastard carry on. Really haven't got a clue.  Probably force fed that sort of shite by their Fine Gael / West Brit masters. C*nts are so dense they haven't the brains to think for themselves.
That Carlow team should have been directed to Gawn St in East Belfast - wouldn't have been shouting their nonsense then.
Carlow played Antrim in the Christy Ring in Corrigan a few years ago and they came to cause serious injury. 3 Antrim players were carried off with 3 Carlow players red carded. Thing is if they had came to play hurling they would have beat Antrim handy enough.

Good to see some footage of the hurlers there. They definitely had some decent scores. A wee slip towards the end for a Kilkenny score could have went the other way and made it interesting too.

U20 hurlers and minor hurlers training camp over the weekend. U20 hurlers beat by Tipp U17 if i heard right. Thats some indicator of where we are, or rather how far off the top table Antrim hurling is.

The U-20 team is very young

Big match today with the Dubs. Not overly optimistic as the Dubs are in really good form but looking forward to the match as I haven't seen the county in person for a couple of years due to Covid. Hopefully its a good tight competitive game with a few good scores thrown in along the way

Antrim are great value at +6.5 today, Dublin are a very good team but we've plenty good talent playing and great options on the bench.

[imtommygunn]

Dublin have a level of physicality we struggle with. Hoping for a good performance at least but unfortunately don't think we will get any points here. I will be very glad to be wrong mind you.

I love the way Antrim respect the National Anthem.
Playing really well leading Dublin by 2 against the breeze Dublin
hitting alot of wides. Neil McManus superb goal.

Half time Antrim 1 - 8 Dublin 1- 8 soft soft penalty to equalize for the Dubs. Commentators think it's a five point breeze in favor of Antrim for the second half.

10 minutes left Dublin well on top 2-19 to Antrims 2-13

[Baile an tuaigh]

Dublin win by 4 points 2-19 to 2-15.

I actually thought a team like dublin who work the ball up the pitch (like most teams do) would cope ok into the wind. They were well in control in second half, seemed to win every ruck & 50/50 ball
