Down Club Hurling & Football

[snoopdog]

There were a lot of Down folk there sat night. I saw Burren hats, Clonduff hats, Castlewellan also. And a lot of Down gear. So Kilcoo were well supported by alot of their fellow County men.  Possibly that supposed hatred from some clubs drove Kilcoo on even more. Time to channel that hatred and compete with Kilcoo. Again congrats to the Magpies

I seen Liatriom and Town men, Finn men, Annaclone, even Clonduff and Bridge men there. It was a good united front for the county. There is admiration for them. Moran has changed them and cut out the crap which has caused so much hatred towards them in the county especially the sledging.
But that is gone now, Its time for us all to come together to stay in Divison 2 and make Down great again. Kilcoo winning shows how good our championship is. We have the footballers.

No chance of kilcoo players featuring this weekend surely.

Would you not give the Kilcoo lads a week or two off considering they've been on the go non-stop for a long time! I'm sure they have a few knocks that they can finally rest and recover from too, plus a huge and well earned hangover.

[Truth hurts]

let them party to Wednesday then sober them up for the crunch tie on Sunday, maybe they will be buzzing to play. Would Eugene Brannigan commit to the county? Big Choc committed before and so did Niall, was there ever a reason the others never committed. It would be interesting to see if they would be as effective against top-class players every week. They are class players but there is a massive gulf between club and county.
I am really looking forward to Sundays games, A few forwards back in the team will make some difference, I do think we were set up well v Galway, we just did not have the players to execute,

You really need to get a life.. No kilcoo players be involved for a while and neither should they be.

They might come in for the last couple of league games. Those guys need a couple of weeks off. It's been all go for them for a while. Think jerome has fluid on the knee.

Agreed. Let them enjoy their time on the beer for gods sake

Can imagine they'll be given this week off then back to training to be involved for the round 4 home game against Roscommon.

I'd be shocked in a kilcoo player lines out for Down before the middle of March at least. None on the Branagans will be involved.

Any of the 13 players that started both league fixtures and has a combined score below 11 should be replaced for Sunday and someone else given a chance.How else are we going to improve?

[Truth hurts]

Does anyone know if Breannain McComiskey got a county trial?
