Are beatty and mcaleese both fit? both didnt feature last mckenna cup game. Id expect to see both d lynch and p mcaleer on the starting team

[imtommygunn]

Beatty had an operation there maybe last week. (I saw the rossa twitter page wishing him good luck).

Dunno on McAleese. Not sure McEnhill fit either.

Was there any word on the championship structure from the meeting the other night? (Assuming it went ahead)

[BrendanAntrim]

All Belfast semi final in MaClarnon  Cup tomorrow, Knock v Rathmore in Beechmount. Aquinas went out yesterday, Abbey from Donegal a very strong team, won't be easily beaten.

how are St Malachys and St Marys CBS performing these days?

which Belfast school is the closest to competing at McRory Level?

Two options will be discussed on Mon 29th
1. Stay as we are
2. Div 1 x 16; Div 2 x 10 teams; Div3 x 8

1 team relegated from league ; 1 from championship via playoffs

Don't know what grade CBS and St Malachys are in; we will see tomorrow which school is closest to McCrory level I suppose. But I imagine none will move into McCrory before winning MacClarnon.

CBS are McLarnon

St Malachys are a level down (Is it Markey Cup??)

However, they are strong further down the school so I would say by the time those lads reach the age they will be McLarnon.

I would doubt any of them with be MacRory Cup any time soon.

Knock and Rathmore do battle this evening in Colaiste Feirste in the McLarnon semi-final.

All Belfast clash, but not an all Antrim clash..

Gaelfast take note.

Gaelfast by name I'm assuming its for Belfast? I didn't think it was looking at the boundary of the Lagan when it was set up and plenty of lads getting good exposure to higher end college football can only be a good thing.

What input do Gaelfast have in the schools?

[BrendanAntrim]

All Antrim schools now out of the McLarnon Cup. Can't be a good thing.

There are Antrim lads playing for Knock

[BrendanAntrim]

Well I assume you say 'All Antrim schools now out of the McLarnon Cup. Can't be a good thing' on the basis that Antrim players aren't playing in latter stages?

I'm pointing out that there are Antrim players who will be playing for Knock in the final, and that is a good thing for Antrim.

Just an observation.

[BrendanAntrim]

I think it's good thing for Antrim players to be playing at a reasonably high level of schools football. Better that than them all to lose and exit competitions early

That's about it.

[BrendanAntrim]

Hopefully we will get radio coverage for today's game. Limerick FM usually has commentary for their home games.

[bannside]

Going well atm.
