I know I am one short but had an argument with a mate about what hurlers were better between those antrim clubs who have contested the all Ireland hurling finals.  Reckon Dunloy had the better personal but ultimately came up short.

Would anyone have an opinion ??

Should have asked for 83 team though wouldn't know those lads or seen them.

or even the first antrim team to reach the final in 80 (?) 

JC in the full backs? Scully no 7? Eddie in midfield? never!!!!  I'd also put Shane Elliott and DD in goals all day long before GM.

What about Rossa in '88?

[Last Man]

see Paul Flynn ex waterford involved in coaching role with the Down hurlers, quite a coo

Shows Down maybe coming out of the recession as well

The Wing doesn't do low rent.

yeah SIE forgot about Rossa and Ciaran Barr would certainly be there, as would close if he was about that team.  yeah i know the positions aren't perfect but its the hurler i was picking. 

Magee as good as those 2 lads though not as committed to hurling i know

Beaver McCarry? Eddie Donnelly?

Well saff I love the all-Ireland team and the blatant disregard of Rossa and an all-star in Ciaran Barr.
Silly me - I forgot they are from south if ballymena and not worth remembering about!

Personally I don't like attempting to compare players from different eras - I suppose this thread is because there's little happening on field around us!
The winters is so bleak for us Gaels!

Speak for yourself.

True!
Well I suppose it will be quiet in loughguile until the challenge games start!
Possibly clones in February rather than Parnell?

St Thomas beat Gort in Galway replay, 1-16 to 1-15

St Thomas beat Gort in Galway replay, 1-16 to 1-15

St. Thomas first senior final. From what I hear from down there they're a serious outfit. Dark horses maybe.

[Gizzy15]

'95 was the year Dunloy beat us in the Antrim final?

Shaemy Shannon and tne mighty John Taggert the two wing half forwards, one of them missed a pelenty in that final but i cant remember what one. anyone shed any light?

[Milltown Row2]

Good blend of youth and experience, a right few Galway panelist and players from the club also. Loughrea are no push overs either, should be a hard match, but maybe Loughrea's experiences might be enough to win the game.

If I were a Loughgiel man I'd prefer to play Loughrea over St Thomas's

What's the likely path to victory for Loughgiel?

[btdtgtt]

I look forward to you building op the opposition from now until February SIE!

I am thinking loughgiel will overcome the Galway champions to be beaten by ballyhale in the final.
I think some "turgid" conditions is the only think will stop ballyhale.

But I have been wrong before as we all know!

Usually to score more points but.....

St Thomas's have good players in David Burke and Joe Cooney, but I think Loughrea will just edge this one and Loughgiel should beat Loughrea in the semis. Job done

[CitySlicker11]

Job done after the semi final stage MR2? You really are starting to sound like a Loughgiel supporter!
