Antrim Hurling

[SaffronSports]

The report in The Saffron Gael says there had been rumours this was it for him. I think he's the type who would want to go out on a high as well by leaving Antrim in the best position possible.

Based on his performances, he absolutely could go again but I suppose we don't know at what cost that's coming at. He's been with Antrim since he was very young and has played longer than all the lads he played with in the early days. Regardless of what he does, he's left a fantastic legacy on the pitch but he's also done an awful lot off it too with regards promotion of the game.

Maybe fancies one last big push for another championship with Cushendall before he hangs them up completely.

If he retires from the county he will play on with Cushendall for a few more years.

A good few lads from Sambo and Woody's minor team from back in the day are still plying their hurling trade with their clubs.

I think he will stay on for another year at least. He'll get a few weeks rest, probably a holiday and back on the horse with Cushendall for this year's championship.

MR question on rules and this is possibly as applicable to football...

Ryan Elliot's black card on Sunday - so he took the man down and the man scored anyway so no foul given but Elliot still given black card. Is that correct?

In intercounty games it seems to be the thing to do, never seen the incident but by the law, if there is a cynical foul stopping someone from scoring then its a black card and penalty, just because he scored doesn't change the initial 'foul' so getting the sin bin is there to hopefully stop that stuff

Ah ok cheers. So basically if you're going to bring someone down for a black card offense make sure it counts

Div1 league splits this weekend, the Dall have Portaferry visiting tonight, a must win game for both I'd have thought if either want in the top 6.

We're surprisingly in the mix for a top 6 place, a win from either Rossa at home tonight or away to the Town on Sunday should do it, but injuries are mounting again with our lads...

Big win for ballygalget and portaferry draw with cushendall. Big win for Carey against ballycastle. The ballycastle twitter thread just seems to read another free for Carey and another and another
