Portlaoise in the u13 B Hurling and u17 B Hurling


Besides Portlaoise, Camross and Clough-Ballacolla are also in the u13 'B', leaving only 5 teams in the 'A'. Crazy. And I bet some of those 'B' teams would beat some of the ones in the 'A'.

Helix.

I know the gaels situation is more or less gone but regarding amalgamation is there any truth to Colt and Shanahoe coming together at adult level? Would be a good long term move if that was the case.

Rumours, all right. Might be a year or two too soon.

It is amalgamation season I suppose, and someone has to fill the void this year. Looks like raheen and shanahoe are next on the list. Always a great spectacle for the neutral though.

Have Colt and Shanahoe announced their engagement yet or are they still keeping it a secret?

EGM has to happen first I imagine

Ballyroan Abbey

EGMs are on tomorrow, basically done on Shanahoe side as there struggling for numbers, Colt side is tighter, threat made by one player leaving if it happens is making lads wary of doing it.

Heard talks of there being a Raheen Gaels team being entered in for Senior if it didnt happen with Trumera and possibly Clonad involved but dont know how accurate that is

Well, it's appropriate to do so now. Amalgamation confirmed.
A lot of lies and half-truths have been spouted over christmas. Never an easy decision. Best of luck to all.

More power to them. 2 hurling mad clubs. Will the amalgamation mean nobody gets relegated from Senior B (Premier Intermediate)?

Calling it Colt/Shanahoe, would of thought they would of went with Raheen, dont know how many teams they will have ill assume it will be 3, should shake up Premier Inter next year though with them, Harps Portlaoise the front runners. Be interesting to see if Murray follows through with his transfer threat

Nobody is getting relegated from Premier Intermediate down, so Clonaslee, Pickas, Kyle all staying up

Premier Intermediate, Junior A and Junior C will probably be the breakdown. Be a strong junior A team if that's the case.
