Anyone got the starting team/panel that went down to limerick.

Just don't think you will see that published anywhere

Out of interest why not? I note limericks team in that article. Everything seems very hush hush regards the hurlers atm. People in the know appear to be keeping tight lipped? I think people are genuinely interested about the challenge games and news on the panel etc at this stage... not long to dublin game now. Hope alls going well so far under davy.

There was a few people down at Dunsilly when I did a game, people knew about it, are you asking the right people? I wouldn't look to ask people on a forum tbf, anyone at your club involved? Do you know anyone at the county?

The gates were open, think someone mentioned before they were going to play Limerick, you coulda headed down to watch that game?

I must be asking the wrong people.. yeah seen it mentioned here about limerick game.. although no mention of venue etc.. just that it was on a Friday.. not alot to go on there.. Just see it mentioned on other county forums about their match details etc.. I guess the majority of us will wait for the league games.. hopefully we've a good league - fingers crossed.

You seem to be a bit nervous about the season.. any reason?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Not at all nervous lol. Just interested to be honest with you. Looking forward to league but I actually enjoyed the Walsh Cup. Pity it's gone for now - hey ho... from what you've seen what do you make of the teams style of play at this early stage? Had you said previously that it's changed noticeabley from how Darren set the lads up?

Quote from: NAG1 on January 10, 2025, 08:57:14 AMJC that is absolutely those clubs that I would be advocating for some level of support.

This is what I think the county should be looking at as opposed to throwing crazy money at the top of the tree that will have limited impact.

Support the middle tier teams to bridge the gap and help the lower tier teams to become more stable within the leagues.

As Faughs says it's very much a numbers game though, if you don't have the numbers that's a big gap to bridge, so get those GDO's into the local primary schools around these clubs and build that relationship and bond with the kids and club as like ourselves we don't have the people to go in there for us other than one retired lad (whose as grumpy as fúck at times  ;D ) and the new "participation" GDO in there once a week which is a start.




The likes of Carey dont even have a primary school I believe and numbers are well down in many other parish schools. Many of these 2nd tier clubs may have generational success, Cushendun in the 90s being a prime example, but without numbers within your own parish at grassroots there is no conveyor belt and continuing in the lower divisons or amalgamations are the only options left available.

TO be fair to the Carey management they have been proactive in terms of trying to keep the numbers up in their panel.

Its a tough scenario for clubs like them and Cushendun who dont have a local primary school or under age teams to keep the senior pot topped up each season.

Naomh Padraig has helped to provide their kids a platform for underage hurling and then a pathway into senior with their home clubs but unfortunately with any amalgamation its self serving for the want of success. Its enviable that managements want to put the strongest team out each week meaning that some kids don't get as much game time and then maybe you lose them before they get to senior.

Its part and parcel of an amalgamation. Not every club invested in it will see the fruits of it.

You tend to see it a lot in camogie as well with clubs who win the Junior & Intermediate championships go up for a year, find that its much too tough for them and slide back down the grade again to where its 'safe' for them.

I'm only a mile from Dunsilly and didn't know there was a match on there!

They played Down last night in Dunsilly & play Derry this Friday
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Here's what I know, the county both football and hurling generally train the same nights every preseason, they are either before Xmas at Jordanstown, after Xmas, Dunsilly, Tues's Thursdays or Mondays Wed's depending on availability. If the lights are on and if you are only a mile from there then there will be something going on, a training match, training of some sort.

I'm ten minutes dander with the dogs to the college so I'll take a dander down and see what's happening. Obviously I'm lucky enough to do a few of the games so its good to see the early panels the set ups and the make up of the selectors, but as I said there were people down unconnected to the teams and someone has told or they asked

I think the best thing to do is ask someone, its not a big secret I don't think, you are bound to know someone within the club that might know or even someone that is involved with the panel or set up

Should be able to get some notion of who is on the Hurling panel as they seem to be doing a fundraiser for Osais tickets (must be an Oasis tribute act). Pile of lads sharing it now on Instagram who are presumably on the hurling panel for this season.
