Some achievement by Slaughtneil. You'd have to feel a bit sorry for their ladies football team though

I'm pretty sure they don't have one.

Is that correct that Leinster are exempt from going to London??!!

Not sure if this has been asked before of if the Central Council have published a contingency but what happens if Slaughtneil win both semi-finals? I would assume they would not be expected to play both finals on St Patrick's day.

I heard that one final would be played as normal on march 17, with the other  final on easter sunday. This scenario is only an option at the minute as far as I know,  and hasnt been announced officially. Apparently st patricks day and easter sunday are quite close in 2017.

I think I recall hearing that back in the day...something to do with them having to play more games generally. I could be wrong though

[BennyCake]

If Slaughtneil make both finals, they'd have to play them on different days. Therefore there's a space for curtain raisers on both final days. So bring back the Railway Cup finals, and give them an allocated yearly slot in the calendar, and the respect it deserves.

They don't have a great chance at all in the hurling. Not sure it will be a problem.

The Cuala hurlers will be hard to beat alright. I'd be delighted if they beat them but it's unlikely.

Of all the clubs they could meet Cuala are the toughest, but if S'Neil snuff out their forwards, as they have done with a potent loughgiel forward line then who knows, they won't lack fitness strength and resolve that's for sure, and given the journey the club has taken of late the won't lack confidence.....

Saying that Cuala could have won by more against Gaels, whom I thought were awful not just in that game but against OTB who totally lost the plot v Gaels when in a commanding position. Better stick work might be the difference here (thought that v Loughgiel)

[imtommygunn]

I think they have half a chance against Cuala though as while Cuala have a lot of good hurlers their main strength to me seemed to be they were overrunning teams and also looked a bit too physical for them. I don't think they'll have either of those advantages against Slaughtneil but they do have some handy hurlers who will probably be a bit much for them.

Good luck to sloughtneil this weekend. Super ambassadors for all that is good in Ulster GAA.
