Down Club Hurling & Football

[marty34]

I think Laverty and Gallagher should have a pact to play their players in both. Test the Ulster council and see the consequences.

Why do GAA people have such difficulty in accepting the rules of a competition?

Similar happened Cork and Limerick U20 hurlers last year with one of the Limerick hurlers missing out on the U20 AI final as he'd played for the senior hurlers in a few games, mostly as a sub.

Croke Park aren't going to change now and TBH it's a rule I agree with.

All about equality.

Lads can play with their senior county hurling teams BUT can go out the next day/previous day and play for their U20 hurling team.

Where's the equality in that?

I'm suprised Fegan isn't in the 26, unless he got injured.

it should be donnacha mcaleenan at no13. Odhran Murdock is obviously left out to play in u20 final

[Truth hurts]

A very honest interview with Darren O'Hagan in todays Irish news, he pulls no punches.

There will definitely be changes to the starting 15 named and players on the bench.  I'd be amazed if Murdock doesn't play. Down at home and Donegal is a bit of a mess... Down to win by 2.

Is the new rule not - if not named in the 26 you can't play? How good is he? Looks very powerful.

you can make changes to the named starting team but not to the 26.

Murdock is a very good player, loads of potential to be even better than he already is, was one of Down's best players throughout the league and would have definitely featured if not for the u20 final, very unfair on players to have these competitions clashing and having to miss out on one

i mean some of the subs named on the 26 can start on the first 15 but nobody outside the 26 can come in except in exceptional circumstances

[ardtole]

I wonder how far the exceptional circumstances can stretch too.
