The GAA has got a huge problem with the hurling and football leagues as in you can't trust what you are watching. Managers pick games over others to prioritise. So much of this years league has been fake and supporters won't stay paying high admission prices for it.

Munster teams have to peak by end May to qualify . It's 3/5 and it is a dogfight.
Tipp can't peak end March and end May and July considering where they are starting from

Quote from: Hound on March 25, 2024, 07:37:19 AMDecent first speech by Harris:

https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2024/0324/1439725-harris-speech/

I don't find him a likeable character, would have much preferred Coveney or Donohue, but let's see what his policies and actions are.
They are going to dump the trans agenda

I heard he wants to take FG back to their roots, is that to fascism or does he not intend to go quite that far back?

John McGuinness and Willie O'Dea are on Claire Byrne dumping on the hate crime bill.  WOD said that people who vote FF in the next election need to know what they are voting for.

It is very unusual to have Cork and KK on record or almost record droughts and Tipp rebuilding
So fat this decade they have no all Irelands.


Tipp happy to be going in at the break only 7 down, whatever hurling has been done by Clare so far.

Bonnar Maher is lots of things but a full forward isn't one of them,  he needs to be further out the field winning dirty ball and driving forward with it.

Clare fouling giving Tipp a lifeline
Tipp are way off so far.
Kiely was interviewed on Radio 1. He said they lacked energy, cohesion and intensity and that it was one of the worst performances in his 8 years.

Quote from: Shamrock Shore on March 24, 2024, 04:41:43 PMWell done Laois and Leitrim. Wexford beat us off the park today. We were outclassed everywhere. Their half backs were monsters and we couldnt cope.

Another year in Div 4 and, tbh, it's where we belong*.
*Except in January

Quote from: seafoid on March 24, 2024, 03:27:31 PMRoscommon join Monaghan in the basement. They will probably

a) both feature in the all Ireland qf
b) both be promoted next year

the league now is just shadow boxing


I'm not so sure on that; Down and Cork will fancy their chances of promotion next year aswell as both of those.

Looking at that Cork team yesterday they have the makings of a very good side; impressive midfield with plenty of scoring options an plenty of pace.

If only they can get their act together.

Football needs a strong Cork.
It does but they might need another year.

Quote from: seafoid on March 24, 2024, 03:07:07 PMThe Tyrone game is a massacre. The GAA have created a monster.

A successful Dublin teams pays the bills for headquarters and that's all that matters
It's business, not sport
Nothing was done during the six in a row. Dublin are not going to fix the problem.
