Its a feature of Laois that we have no shortage of lads willing to play club football in Dublin due to "distance" and yet there's lads from counties that dont have a motorway near them and they stay loyal to their home club,trekking back and forward from Dublin 2/3 times a week.
Maybe now that hes given his best years to Brigids,he expects a newly promoted Rosenallis to welcome him back with open arms

Huge loss for Portlaoise and Laois. One of the few top managers inside the county. Rhode won't be an easy job either, as they don't seem to be as strong as previous years and I'm not sure they have much coming through underage. Best of luck to Malachy all the same.
How is he a loss? Only ever managed portlaoise and won as expected. Even niall rigney in his first football job was able to win with portlaoise so if he leaves is he a loss to portlaoise and laois?
Malachy's teams were far more dominant in Laois than what Rigney did with Portlaoise this year, barely scraping over the line in a lot of games. Portlaoise were capable of genuinely challenging for Leinster's when he was over them as well.

i see Ronan McEvoy scored 2-8 in the u-20 yesterday, were Portlaoise holding him back for it from Saturday night or how come he did not feature to much with the seniors.
also is there many others of that u20 squad ready to step up to the senior squad for next year?
He's a seriously athletic player and I was sure he was set to start against Eire Og the last day. Should be given a look in for the Laois senior in my opinion.
i was referring to any one from the portlaoise u-20 set up stepping up the the portlaoise senior set up and not the laois set up
Whelan and the two midfielders from last year, Tyrell and Dunne, seem to be the most likely to step up in my opinion. A lot of very talented players on that U-20 squad from last year who are underage again this year. Hopefully Kinsella and backroom team can bring them on further.

You should never be embarrassed when you're beaten fair and square. They were a physically imposing team who also tackled well. Laois teams will always struggle against that.

I don't think it would. Mullinavat were far superior and wasteful in front of goal. They were fitter, bigger and played well as a team. It was actually quite sobering to see a Kilkenny team being that dominant

Brian Breen as S and C. Big year for us ahead now. Best of luck to the lads.
