Ulster IFC and JFC Club Championships 2015

[DownFanatic]

Glasdrumman won Down JFC handy enough today. Connaire Harrison 2-06. Class act. Down have a woeful record in the Ulster JFC so don't know how they will fare.

Loughinisland hammered a Martin Clarke led An Riocht in yesterday's Down IFC final. 12 points in it at the end.
Greenlough will be a massive test but Id guess that both are probably operating at a similar level.

These two sides play this weekend... Greenlough are 9/4 am I missing something?

What sort of outfit are Davitts?

Theyd be handy enough with a full side they were missing 3 or 4 players today due to Irish League commitments (Sean O'Neill Crusaders keeper class act) and still won. They won Junior 2 years ago but have since lost their captain who ironically will be playing for Tullysaran in the ulster junior also. Ive heard good reports about Glassdrumman though so I would have to fancy Glassdrumman to win as they could go deep into the all ireland? They were a great team on the old celebrity banisteor quite a few years back.

10 point win for loughinisland today, Down look to have strong representatives in all three grades this year despite our poor record in these competitions in general.

Coa won at the weekend against the Armagh champions in the JFC I believe.

I would have Rockcorry as pretty strong favourites to win the Ulster outright.  They were playing senior 2 seasons ago but dropped down to junior due to lads being away and a few injuries.  They have a lot of them back now and are pushing hard.  Loughanisland will give the Intermediate a fair rattle and it will take a very good team to beat them.  Clann Eireann are decent,  Doohamlet from Monaghan are very strong.  Can't say I know much about the rest but I'd say it will be between the Down men and Doohamlet.

Just want to give a mention to Faughanvale who won their game in the Junior championship at the weekend. This is a Derry clubs first win in the Ulster Junior since 2008.

Rockcorry/Templeport JFC final?
Loughinisland are looking good for the IFC. Have got by two tricky games already. What sort of outfit are Doohamlet?

fairly strong I would say, they beat us in 2010 and reached the final that year. Monaghan teams have reached 3 of the last 5 finals at this grade.

Yeah, I'd agree with that about Doohamlet. A dogged team at this level. They've been narrowly beaten by the eventual all Ireland champions at this level in 2010 (lisnaskea) and 2012 (cookstown). They have added some outstanding young players since 2012 especially Barry McGinn. Saying that Colin Walshe really stands out at this level. They won't fear Loughinisland.

Rockcorry took the foot of the gas against Coa, but I think with the right focus they'll have the firepower to win the JFC. Their full forward line of McGeough. McGuirk and Smyth have all played at minor or u-21 for Monaghan.
