Antrim Hurling

[Oso]

Some experts had the Dall well beat!

SN done now

Thanks wee man. High praise from you.

Your knowledge on hurling is on a par with your football knowledge

Nothing like sitting on the fence wee man.  I think you predicted Slaughtneil would win too... But then you worded it in such a way as you could go either way after the event.  We've a little bit of a crowd pleaser on our hands when we venture outside the antrim boards.
Says it all.

"Would love to see Cushendall win next weekend but it's going to be very tough, hoping S'neil have a poor game, but they are decent"

So this is what I said on the game. SN had a bad game and Cushendall won,

The crap you put up wasn't even close. Do forgive me for thinking you're full of shite..

Ones using SN having to deal with inactivity and poor prep, been the same every year they won Ulster, in fact probably worse considering their football team was winning as well..

They played a few challenge games also.

Exactly.

I hope they win.... But it's going to be very tough..... I hope slaughtneil have a bad game.... But they are decent.

Splinters much?

Slaughtneil's hurling demise has coincided with the success of the Derry intercounty footballers.   You can not deny that and the impact it's had on their own intercounty footballers hurling based on todays performances and probably hurling in Derry in general.  2 1/2 months is a long long lay off in anyone's books for match sharpness.  As evidenced by Cushendall today, matches bring teams on, especially championship matches.

Ok, put the phone down, you are starting to look silly

Super win. Much the better team. Scoreboard flattered Slaughtneil. Cushendall players superior with the stick.

Credit to Cushendall's fitness levels too. After that extra-time victory two weeks ago they'd be forgiven for being laborious today.

McManus regularly gets the credit but Eoghan Campbell, Paddy and Martin Burke, Joe McLaughlin, Scott Walsh and more have been super all season.

They held Slaughtneil scoreless for 18 minutes at one stage. 2 goals for Slaughtneil distorted the true gap between the two sides.

Cushendall by and large a club and community that stick with their own (bar a few high profile recent events).

Decent post on the match until your last paragraph

Which is what from hat he said in that last post?

Just wasn't overly sure why the last part was necessary?

[imtommygunn]

Another factor imo is that slaughtneil's biggest players - Rodgers and O'Doherty - are players that cushendall have the ideal players to counteract. I don't think Dunloy have the same calibre of defender to do that despite being as good a team as they are.

Some difference in the chrissy mckaigue today to the one that took diarmuid connolly for 4 points in a football semi. Every dog has its day

I honestly don't think there's that much. His job today was damage limitation. I know he's an all star corner back in football but I always thought him too one paced for the full back line and think he's better out the field in football or hurling. Controversial I know.

On a side note our social media today was nothing short of embarrassing, I didn't know if he was drunk or passed the phone to a teenager, it's how I would imagine my daughter and her friends converse........bloody hell other counties must be laughing when they read the crap that goes up on our socials

Seen a "see ye chrissy" comment and thought the same

[imtommygunn]

That social media account not great unfortunately but hopefully will change. I do find it funny that saffron voice saying it's embarrassing with the stuff they come out with mind you lol.

No one opposed the social media side of things this year..

So if there are better ones out there, they need to step up

That's not me saying put your name forward, it's just that Sean done such a great job we have been spoilt

[NorthAntrim]

I think everyone just expects a little bit more professionalism. On a high profile account

Yep, it's the kind of job you shouldn't be noticed & if you are you are doing something wrong
