Antrim Hurling

[Seamroga in exile]

Looks to be a lot of Dunloy guys on that St Louis team skull? Them and a Loughgiel McNaughton  which you don't see too often.

I wondered has st louis won it before but seems they won it in the late 80s.

St Marys have a large pick though so might be a tough enough ask but would be nice to see a win going outside st marys, maghera or cross and passion for a change.

Loughgiel or McNaughton?

Ahh.. the oul Mikasa glove on a hurling pitch. Was never a good look 

Yeah i rem that look as well. Never understood it at all

I see they all look to have standard issue red helmets with a face guard as well. Our school made us wear them horrible basket cases!

Well seeing the two Gillans with the standard Loughgiel red helmets, not sure face guards were on the go back then though, that'd be mid to late 80's.

Did Cushendall object to the final being in Owenbeg?
Seems mad taking Slaughtneil, Cushendall & Loughgiel to bloody Armagh!
There wont be any less Slaughtneil people at it, but there will definitely be less people at it as a whole!
Cant see many neutrals from Derry or North Antrim making the trip to the Athletic Grounds.

Mageean Cup final tonight up at the dub. St Louis vs St Marys at 7:30pm

Plenty of talent on show from both teams. Hope the tight pitch doesn't make it a ruckfest

Just in case you head up and waste your journey. The Mageean final was moved a couple of days ago. It is now in Ballymena at 4.30pm today.

Brian was a decent juvenile hurler.. Wristy hurler, played on the county juveniles when I played... Still about Loughgiel SIE?

i was playing under 12 in 88 and the club had a batch of yellow helmets with face guards on them, you wernt allowed on the pitch without one on to play.

Its the reason i wore a face guard my entire life.

Is that Ciaran Kearney of Stormont fame in the middle back row

Theres Ryan Elliott, Conor Kinsela, Keelan Molly, Conal Cunning, Ciaran Elliott, Seaan Elliott from Dunloy on the team. Also Ryan McGarry who hurls for Dunloy but is a ballymena man


88 was the last time they won it

[imtommygunn]

I think it is Ciaran Kearney... I don't know who the guy is mind you but I read it on facebook!
