Good man Rodney, thank you. There's also more here from the UCC game, including captain Kevin O'Driscoll revealing that UUJ won the toss but were a 'bit crazy' to play into the gale, plus he has a wee dig at UUJ's 'week in the sun' - all good clean fun and some great scores, and a minute's silence at the start to Heffo - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avir3N0PgGE&feature=youtu.be

ye reckon this was adrian mcguckian's fault?? maybe he told his captain to do so

Hope all goes well for him. I loved when he got interviewed after games when he played for the county. Always straight to the point and no garbage. He has westmeath blood throwing through his viens.

Sure does, ferocious competitor. Tubberclair (his club) narrowly lost the Intermediate Leinster final to Maynooth a few years ago and as we made our way past the dressing rooms he was standing there locked out and the whistle just gone. It wasn't looking too good for the door.

From the Athlone IT game report: "The winners lead by 1-6 to 0-4 at the break with Roscommon senior Cathal Shine striking home the only goal of the game."....Not sure that's how I would have described that particular goal!...Shine did get credited with t though to be fair.

Just on the general point about Sigerson and Fitzgibbon...given the standard of fitness and the players on view you would think the media coverage would be a lot better. AS someone mentioned, half the games don't seem to warrant any attention, when any GAA person who was savvy would realise that the players in these competitions are in pole position to make the step up to county panels and that they may be looking at stars of the next 5-10 years.

I could be wrong, but I have a feeling that some of the mainstream media reports on the games during the week were just hawked up from various sources and that there was no reporter assigned to the games as such in a lot of cases..I could be wrong, but don't think I am.

Would it be an idea if all the colleges in Ireland joined together and played DCU in Sigerson final?

[emmetryan]

It would be interesting see what sort of fantasy panel you could put together from that.
