Antrim Hurling

[youngfella]

Aye noticed that too, hippy is a great hurler but he's a natural half back. he should be played there to learn his trade, fair do hes bit slow but there not many better in antrim under a puck out. But its a sad state of affairs when a half back is being made to play in centre forward. What does it say about the county! I mind the minors of a few years ago there was a cracking forward, he was country boy, cant mind his name, He played in full forward lovely touch. what happened to him?

Early season stuff on sunday milltown and I'd say youse are further on in terms of both stickwork and fitness, but a good lung opener for us all the same.

Forgot to say that the Johnnies and Loughgeile were both down at a tournament in Portaferry a few weeks back and took the opportunity to puck the heads of each other for 5 minutes, a bit of bad blood there!!

Pot calling the kettle black or what! Did the ref sent any boys off or report it ?

It was a friendly, so after they all tired themselves out the hurling resumed on a 15 aside basis. Don't know if there was a proper ref there or not but I wouldn't expect any offical action.


I remember we used to hold a tournament in the summer and one of the games involved the Sars and Johnnies not long after the whole Sars and money going missing back in the late 80's. I think a lot of lads must of transferred to the Johhnies after that and christ all hell broke out that night, first time I ever saw hurls used in a ruck, frightening stuff. No ref's report that night either.

This is one where the lads have to go out with their heads held high and hurl to the best of their ability. Ignore the score board completely.

Can't for the life of me understand why S&W have not been trying to use their panel a bit more in these last few games. If they're there then they be giving them all a rattle. It's not as if anyone expected us to win these games with our strongest team, so why not give as many a go as possible and encourage them to focus on performance rather than scoreline.

PJ O Connell Clooney Gaels, i'm confused, couple of other players on the team that should try the bench for a change, Cormac Donnelly Mc Quillans Ballycastle, being one of them, and as good as a hurler he is but Michael Mc Cambridge has been woeful, but thats just my opinion and for ten pounds in to watch them home and away i can say that
