Heard absolutely nothing yet about the squad. Anyone know who's been involved?

Are there still plenty of tickets left?

Anyone heading to Caaaavan?

Panel not named yet, Provisional training squad have been training away for the past 6 weeks.. Still tickets available, should be full by the 19th

Wonder who'll be the first person to come on saying what a waste of time it is and how much they hate it.

They've been training away. Had read somewhere some of the names but can't really remember. Think the likes of murphy, mckeever and Cavanagh were mentioned. The gaa will soon need to start their marketing campaign if they're to fill breffini. I usually like the games but not sure if it was a good idea what the Aussies have done.

Its's a load on dung and Breffni is not a great venue for it if there is weather like the last few nights but then you would still get a bad wetting in Croke Park in this weather.

love the Int rules. Will be at either this one or Croker. CMTF Ireland

Murphy named as captain.

Fuzzman · October 03, 2013, 02:17:35 PM

Can't believe nobody has mentioned yet how the tackling should be a lot better this year from Ireland with all the practice that some of us have got in early

Will McManamon be in the running now after his Mayo tackling?

blanketattack · October 03, 2013, 02:34:45 PM

Are the Aussie team just comprised of Aborigine and mixed-race players?

Surprised Cavanagh hasn't been named Captain . . . best exponent of the Aussie Rules tackle I ever saw!
