Simple question to answer EOC. If Antrim hadn't won today there would have been a fair few queuing up to say we are no better off. But now most will agree (concede even) that we are. A 19 point turnaround in a year is not too shabby.

Enjoy the occasion, the pride that took a hammering this time last year has been restored.

Now we can move on....

A win against Leitrim is worthy of celebration......BS...?

We were also competitive apparently in challenge games with Dublin & Tyrone  :o
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

A good win, we have rightly took it seriously this year as this is Antrims level.Disappointed we had no representation on the starting team to be honest. I'd say the men we have there maybe won't be there much longer.

Ach wise up.  Of course it's worthy of praise and celebration. I knew somebody would say it's only Leitrim. Can't win.

Who would you have started and where?

EOC1923

Pat shivers corner forward, and although Sean O Neil injured and unavailable obviously isn't rated at all by McEntee or McCrudden.
Just seen the highlights great to see Adam Loughran showing what a great player he is.

Would you not say Pat has had a fair bit of game time to date

A minimum of at least 2 more likely at least 3 further games in TC he will get opportunity

Sean very talented and maybe a bit like Adam who you mentioned above might just take a little patience and he will get opportunity to show his ralent

2 early to be throwing in the towel.....


geezer

EOC, IMO Shivers is the best shooter in the county, but hes quite lethargic, probably the reason he doenst start.

Wasnt at the game but by all acocunts, Loughran was the star of the show. Could have been a different league campaign if he was fit. Class act.

Meath, Down, Cavan etc, very proud footballing counties, all multiple all Ireland senior winners going full pelt to win the Tailltean Cup,  yet some persist with a ludicrous view that Antrim shouldn't be taking this competition seriously at all, as if for some reason we are above it.

Thankfully it's a minority view and the rest can see past this infantile drivel.

Really.... Your surprised by someone asking how no player from the best club side in Antrim for the last 10 years started

A load of them are unavailable. There were a lot in the u20s starting IIRC . The team will be loaded with Cargin players soon enough with what they have coming through.
