You're  taking the piss Jim, I suppose Oran Kearney has all the cross and passion lads playing soccer not hurling.

Cross and passion have really stepped up their work in hurling and camogie and Saint Louis have improved in the last 10 years with Dunloy input having helped. Around 10 of Dunloys winning team this year were past pupils of St Louis

Not sure if it's true or not but from what I read on google, St. Louis have 1 title since 1990? I thought they would have favoured football over hurling in that school.

St Louis getting Loughgiel players now which I'm not sure historically would ever have been the case, but getting Loughgiel & Dunloy minors is some start to putting a team together
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

They are competing for success a lot better than they would have been historically but the Dunloy and Loughgiel players the main reason for that

I played Mageean hurling there and that said something of the standard at that time

Big win for the Saffrons......changes a plenty before easing  over the line with a good bit to spare....perfect start.

1-14 to 0-08

Great start! And seemed easy enough at the end. Were you on the line CB?

I wasn't replying to him mr2  I was stating a fact.
Just like your refereeing not seeing the overall play.

5/2 double Antrim and Derry. Money for oul rope.  Great start to the league, well deserved, Cargin men to the fore, with Mick the master and big shout out to wee Jamie who was superb. More feedback later, in Pat's Bar Enniskillen for a bite and a pint.

What a bizarre attack, he wasn't asking you but you stated fact then questioned my refereeing?  Very strange indeed. Carry on

Didn't get down but listened to radio coverage, Jamie seemed to be very influential. What a morale boosting win, McGinleys preparations for this season seem to be at another level than we're used to. Great to see.

I know he wasn't asking me, I was posting to the wider group to let them know how impressed an observer was with the teams fitness.

But you then went on to question my refereeing? Bit strange, no?
