Antrim Hurling

[Larnegaa]

Does anyone have any views on how they see Division 4 hurling panning out this year?  Anyone any information on Ballyvarley from Co.Down?

[Na Glinntí Glasa]

Sorry for the string of replies but I'm abroad (working not with Sky spreading hurling!).

A few comments about Croke park and Corporate GAA being removed -  couldn't agree more.

Lets not forget that alot of people cant even go to matches now due to club commitments - Croke don't care about this! And they don't care who watches them as long as they get sufficient TV money and sell out the semis & finals.

Comparing to other sports is interesting! Grassroots rugby has suffered hugely as a result of the two-tier systems brought in - thats where GAA is heading. Sorry - thats were we are already!

As for hurling predictions;

Div1 Loughgiel
Relegated Sarsfields
Championship Loughgiel

Division2 Glenarriffe
Relegated Bredagh
Intermediate Glenarriffe

Division 3 lamh dearg

I'd have to make cushendall early favourites for the championship. 


*takes cover

Feis cup Loughgiel
Division 1 Loughgiel
Chmpionship Loughgiel
Reserve Championship Loughgiel

loughgiel are, as always, the team to beat - behind cushendall as well

*hides behind your cover!*

They'd be handy enough at that level if they get all their players out, which isn't always the case.

Play in red and white and based in and around the Banbridge/Katesbridge area.

Ballyvarley play on the Scarva road out of Banbridge. Apart from that I've no idea what level they're at.

Can see division 4 being very tight. Glenravel obvious favourites but wouldn't rule out ODonnells or All Saints if they get their act together.

[ardtole]

Started very well. What clubs would provide the majority of players?

[ardtole]

no 10 lucky to be still on .

[Seamroga in exile]

Ballycastle, cushendall, Loughgiel, armoy, Carey, cloughmills. Not sure if any Dunloy on there or not.

[Milltown Row2]

That was very harsh, the umpire was looking up in the air and then decided the keeper crossed the line ffs

[ardtole]

He stepped of his line as he came out so had a bit of room to play with. Cant see how that was given. very harsh alright.

[Tony Baloney]

The umpire is a f**king balloon, never a goal. Big second half needed to claw this back.

One of them seemed to be looking across the line. Looked like he called it. Fine line
