The "big 3" are not as far ahead of the pack as we thought, maybe.

What was your opinion of Oisin's use of Tosh as defender with the breeze in the first half, and then reversed against the breeze tonight Minder?

It'll be interesting to see when the replay is. St. Gall's have football championship next weekend. Possibly have to push the semi back now.

Total madness, couldn't believe it, was told to do it by management though. We needed as big a lead as possible in first half with that wind, and the deficit at half time wasn't big enough. That Cushendall team is a pale shadow of past Dall teams. Thought Hasson had a bad day at the office.

Couldn't believe it either Minder.

Surprised with the draw but I did think that St Galls could have got close.  They are probably the most up and coming hurling team in Belfast.

How did the Intermediate go?

Tis the 25th anniversary of probably our worst ever championship defeat to St Pauls. We deserved the same tonight as we were awful in so many areas of the pitch. Bar their shooting St Galls taught us a hurling lesson. They will be kicking themselves with the wides and the jammy goal which kept us in that game.

id say rossa are the up and coming team in city, but if st galls were to put the effort into hurling that they have done in football then things may be looking up,   good luck to them in replay

Lamh Dhearg 2 13 Clooney Gaels 2 08 (per twitter on the county site)

Anyone any idea whether the Lamh Dhearg line out was affected by the goings on in Casement last Sunday?

Expected a tough battle as you would in a derby game. We were slow out of the blocks, hurled in spells but big improvement needed. Tosh could have snatched a draw although I think we deserved the win. Good to see Brian Delargy back, a very underrated player but his teammates know his worth. Good to see we kept our discipline and Karl should slot back in to boost our midfield and potentially play with Decky McKillop who made an impact when introduced. I must say I was also baffled at some of the oisins tactics and some of their switches. Both spare men/sweepers cleared alot of ball.
the difference between success and failure is energy

Fair enough assessment.
