Only 5 counties have positive score differences in SHC history.

Kilkenny, Tipperary, Cork, Limerick & Dublin.

Dublin's is +50 and has not been a negative SD since 1919. It peaked in 1952.

The 2014 AI final caused the most pollution due to distances needed to be travelled. It caused the most boredom too.

Costello won AI seniors in 2013 and 2015 already. He completed that treble back in 2014 in the AI U21 final against Roscommon..

Larry Reilly could jump higher run faster and was stronger than any footballer. Modern day strength and conditioning was invented in the hope to reach Larry Reillys level.

Dublin have the longest 100% winning streak of any county against another county in the SFC - 14 v Wicklow.

Tipperary have the exact same number of wins v Kerry in the SHC.

I'll look for you.

There has been no repeat winners in the Sligo SFC since 1989. In hurling, Laois has the longest run of non-repeat winners (2003).

Sorry, I'm not talking back to back winners but 7 different clubs in 7 years.
Great stats though and thanks for checking it.

Just doing stats here. Tyrone haven't scored a goal from play in their last 8 championship games in Croke Park. They scored 3 goals against Roscommon in 2011. The only championship goal scored in Croke Park was a Peter Harte penalty against Kerry in 2015.

They have been up against some very well organised defences.

That is indeed a very interesting and surprising statistic.
So it stretches back to the AI final of 2008.

I done from 2011. They scored 3 goals against Roscommon in Qualifier Round 4 in Croker. I'm including a couple Qualifier games in them 8 games. Think they played in 2013 and Sligo 2015. I wouldn't say have they have conceded many goals either
Title: Re: GAA Random Stats
Post by: Cunny Funt on March 08, 2017, 03:54:45 PM
No goal against Sligo is probably the worst part of that stat when you consider that same Sligo defence conceded 6 goals against Mayo.
Title: Re: GAA Random Stats
Post by: Fuzzman on March 08, 2017, 05:11:54 PM
21 points v Sligo was grand and then 18 v Monaghan in 2015
2013 scored 17 points against Meath and conceded 2.09
14 against Monaghan

We created a few chances against Kerry in 2015 but took none.
How we miss Mugsy
