Antrim Hurling

[Sleeping giant]

My apologies.   am not the one to start this award.   as its taking place and I know.  No1 was at all games.   maybe a few of use would have opinions on the starting 15.    again.  Sorry for being so meaningless

So in theory you could finish 5th and win the league or finish last and still stay up?

Finish 5th ??

I think he means at the cut off point where it splits in 2.

I'm easily confused but top five which is 10th, 9th, 8th, 7th, 6th the bottom 4 here will play off to meet the top team in final? Has that been worked out yet? 9th plays 6th, 8th plays 7th?

eh?

Is there league playoff now??

I thought it was  just a straight 9 game first phase and then split where you'd get another 4 games against the other teams in your section. The top team in the top section wins the league.
The bottom two teams in the bottom section get relegated??

Is it more complicated than that?

?? Teams play each other once (9 games) then splits into to sections of 5, top 5 will play for league title and bottom 5 will be in a relegation battle with 2 going down.  the teams play the other 4 teams in their section again once (now total of 13 games) points are NOT reset to zero after the first 9 games. No playoffs!!  Makes it easier for the county to arrange club games around the new Leinster championship. Also makes all the games in the new division 1 more competitive and meaningful

With less games would it be possible to finish the leagues before championship starts?
And therefore use league positions as seeding to determine the championship ties?
Just a suggestion - every game championship in a way - ultra competitive throughout the year?

the new div 1 league set up looks interesting. split into two sections after each has played the others once.

18 games last year was too many imo, this will hopefully make it more competitive.

i miss hurling already hurry back new season! lol
