two mid table division 2 teams at a push if the leagues were corrected.

Big Scoring at the Bear Pit between Sarsfields and Moneyglass. They couldn't be separated in the end

And what has that got to do with it being a high scoring game?

St Pauls running Cargin so tight has to be the big surprise of the night

A very much experimental Cargin team on show it has to be said

[BigGreenField]

Not sure if the score lines we are seeing are evidence of a "better game" or just an inability to defend one on one.

 Maybe a bit of both.

old rules and 15 men behind a ball protected poor defenders and killed good attackers.  you're just seeing them for what they are now.

Group 3 - Westmeath,Limerick,Antrim,London

That's not the worst group. Not sure we could beat Westmeath but I'd be hopeful about Limerick.

Didn't get to our minor championship match last week against Monaghan. Disappointing to get beaten, but a bit of solace intact having touted young Odhran Doherty as a good one a year or two back. Odhran scored 13 points, no mean feat, and for sure one for a long future in Saffron.

St Galls +8 over Whitehill
Johnnies +2 at Glenravel
Dunloy +5 over Aldergrove
Bakers Boys to stuff St Pauls
St Brigids +4 over Lamhs
Creggan +6 at Rossa
Portglenone +6 in the derby
Cargin +4 in Armagh

When are the championship draws?

[BigGreenField]

St Galls +8 over Whitehill
Johnnies +2 at Glenravel
Dunloy +5 over Aldergrove
Bakers Boys to stuff St Pauls
St Brigids +4 over Lamhs
Creggan +6 at Rossa
Portglenone +6 in the derby
Cargin +4 in Armagh

Creggan clearing the 200 points score mark is some shooting for season to date. League etc etc

How did the cargin game finish? They were five up with a bit to go but haven't seen any update since.

Probably not many surprises in the games tonight.

Comfortable enough win for Cargin. Some head scratching around the referees interpretation of the new rules though. MR2 maybe you can clarify, does the ball have to go dead for full time to be blown or half time for that matter? Aggressively remonstrating with the ref still a black card or now a yellow card?

There's no hooter in club games, hell, there's no hooter in games in some intercounty championship games, so the ref blows when his time is up.. remonstrating aggressively is a black, but that is down to the ref's account of it, not the players or supporters, yellow cards generally given out to players if they continue to give dissent after the ball is moved..

I'm still explaining rules during games, I'm also questioning some calls also, so it's difficult

[Take the Mark]

So in club games when time is up the ref just blows it no matter where the ball is?

Surely when time is up hes meant to wait until the ball goes dead then blow, otherwise its a completely different rule
