The North American / Canada GAA and Hurling thread

Any word on how New York are shaping up this year? We're heading down to play them in a challenge is a few weeks time

So, what can we do on the discussion boards to check the validity of the Sunday Times story that O'Neills has been outsourcing some of its manufacturing to Bangladesh and to implore the GAA to do something about it if true?

Can anyone recommend a hurling team preferably in the Chicago area, a few Amtrim lads thinking of heading out in the summer.

Did you guys come down yet Gab? Be interested to hear how it went.  Ny seem to be training hard, they also have arranged two games with Cavan who are coming out in few weeks. good  competitive games is what they always have been missing.

Hi men, with the supposed exodus of players each year to the States, it'd be nice to keep up with who's playing where and how they're getting on?

Have we many stateside based posters?

I'm only seeing this post now.

Not sure if there's much that can or should be done about it. The way supply chains work these days it's not uncommon for different parts of a production process to be sent offshore if it's cheaper and better than doing it locally.

Hows the games going in the different parts of the states then? Only heard reports from Boston.

In Chicago Sunday past Parnells drew with Wolfetones.

Parnells 0-22
Wolfetones 3-13

Wolfetones will be in the final. Parnells must beat Mcbride's by more than ten points to make it through.

Standard of football very high and all the games have been great spectacles. There's a boy by the name of Tobin from Meath has probably been the stand out player for me of the tournament so far.
