Antrim's target is to win 1 game in Leinster and stay in the Leinster Chapionship the following year.

That's success for Antrim.

What are Dublin doing that we need to do?

Dublin should be what we are looking to get to

That's the end of Shefflin! Galway out of the Championship in May!

Hard to see him manager of Galway next year, results business and Galway greatly underachieved this year.

2 wins, need to regroup and look at next season, see if we can improve..

Losing NMcM is a big blow and we've coped, but we are young enough hopefully we can unearth some more lads this year from the club championship

Since some on this board seem to be in doubt, deliberate Russian targeting of civilians continues, as it has done since Feb 2022. The slaughter continues, as in Kharkiv yesterday:

Russia, Israel - zero difference, two blood soaked fascist regimes.

There is some difference, one of the regimes is supported and funded by Western countries, many of whom are our allies. The other is despised by these same countries. Another difference is that media in the West attempts to give balance/equivalence to Israel v Palestine but makes no attempt to do the same in Russia v Ukraine.

Well first of all, the Ukrainian government isn't a regime, it's the democratically elected government of Ukraine. I suppose Israel isn't technically a 'regime' either but it's most definitely blood-soaked and fascist in nature. 

It is right that Ukraine is supported by other countries in their fight against Russian aggression. By the way the civilian slaughter in Ukraine would be many, many times greater if it wasn't for western supply of air defences to shoot down Russian missiles and Iranian drones.

Also, support given to Ukraine doesn't alter the nature of Russia's deliberate and indiscriminate attacks on civilians. See Syria, Georgia and Chechnya also. Just like Israel in Gaza, deliberate murder.

The media doesn't attempt to make a balance/equivalence between Ukraine and Russia because there is none.

I agree with you that it's unfair and hypocritical to equate Palestine with Israel in their fight against aggression. I agree with you it's shameful that western countries supply Israel with weapons and that Israel hasn't been sanctioned and kicked out of all sporting and international events (like SA was back in the day).

You misread my post. Regime 1 = Israel, Regime 2 = Russia.

Ah, yes I took it up wrong, I thought you were referencing Ukraine and Russia.
