Bredagh Sen Hurlers had an impressive 12 point win over Killieif tonight.  An entertaining game and Bredagh only got shook off a determined Kileif challenge in the final 3 minutes with two goals. 
Ref was spineless and let some thuggish behaviour go by.  Seems that Co players have different rules than others. Any other results tonight?
What are you trying to imply here?

"Rodgers, Maginn, Fitzpatrick begins to look like Carr, Blaney, Mason"
Im gobsmacked.
i always thought we were a little short sighted us Down folk, but not fuckin blind.
Im failing to see the comparison.
For me Fitzpatrick isnt up to it YET.
Doesnt dominate club games the way an intercounty standard midfielder should.
If your not doing it week in week out for your club ie Murtagh, Hughes, Coulter, Rafferty then i dont know how your going to cope at intercounty senior.
ha ha! You got it spot on! Blaney was a legend and the other 2 were pivitol to us winning 2 All-Irelands. Ambrose may have pushed for a place on that line but not the other 2, not yet anyway

Spot on assesment!! When he played against my own Club only a few weeks ago Fitzpatrick got cleaned out around the middle by a young fella who wouldnt have started last year!!
You have to be dominating in club games otherwise you arent going to dominate your opponent in County games. Fitzpatrick has fantastic potential but like the majority of players that come through from U-21, he has found it a lot tougher at Senior level & I dont think he warrants a place. He is a bit like McComiskey in the sense that aas soon as a fella has a poor game he is mentioned as a replacement without ever backing it up with performances.

My team would be:

McVeigh
Rafferty
McArdle
McCartan (Or another)
Garvey
Carr
Rooney
King
Rodgers
Hughes
Maginn
Murtagh
Clarke
Coulter
Brown
Think i would set them up like this:
McVeigh
McCartan
Mccardle
Rafferty
Carr
M Clarke
Garvey
Rogers
King
Hughes
Gordon
Maginn
J Clarke
Coulter
McComisky
Have Dan drop into midfield, Clarke drop to half forward and Marty Clarke spreading passes setting up attacks from Half back/Midfield
Rodgers able to push forward as we would have cover around the middle.

I am going a bit off topic here, after the weekend's action but I hear that the two ex Aghaderg players that were transfered to Annaclone have had their transfered retracted. It has transpired that their transfers were illegal and they are now not permitted to play for Annaclone. This will surely have some serious repercussions for the 2 involved and the Annaclone club. If I am correct Annaclone gained 5 points out of a possible 6 with the players involvement, drawing with Saval and beating both Clann Na Banna and Tullylish. Surely these clubs will deem that Annaclone gained an unfair advantage during these 3 games and will want the County Board to act on this.

Does anyone have a comment on this?

what happened, was their caravan not permanent enough?
They forgot to take the wheels of her............

Any truth in the rumour that Paul Evans is taking RGU III's S*ul this year?   ;)
He took them before and got them promoted in 2003 perhaps?
Remember playing them in Saul that year. He had them in a circle in their warm up as we were jogging past and he was roaring at them to get stuck into that shower of sh@@e. Gave us all the motivation we needed that day.
Though to be fair he did have them very fit and they played some very good stuff under him.
If that is indeed true i will look forward to watching the games next year because knowing the man i believe he will get the best out off the current panel. Just hope the older guy's stay around to give the much needed experience as the league will be a tough run in this year.
