Down Club Hurling & Football

What happened to the mighty Burren tonight?? Went to bridge game - dirty night for football.  Can they not start the games at 6.45 at this stage - the evenings are really closing in....

It was closer to a Burren second string that they had out tonight. No Gerard McCartan, Dan McCartan, Donal O'Hare, Eoin McCartan, Declan Rooney or Anton McArdle to name but a few.

For me, Peter Turley was the man of the match at midfield.

That makes a little more sense then about burren... Those guys would get in all club teams in division 1.....  Is Peter Turley worth a slot on the county team in youir opinion??

In terms of sheer physical strength and ball winning ability he would be up there with the best we have got. Maybe slight questions over his mobility but he far outshone Kevin McKernan who had a poor game tonight.

Just back from the downpatrick v burren game and in fact downpatrick won by two points on a scoreline of 1-07 to 8 points. Was very dissapointed with burren tonight who started ok but badly faded and when the going got tough they had nobody to step up for them and take leadership. Saying it was more like a burren second string I don't know about that I don't think Eamon Toner Kevin McKernan or Sean Murdock to name a few play for burren 2nds. From what I heard downpatrick were missing 5 players tonight themselves. Hungrier team won on the night and agreed Peter Turley was man of the match burren couldn't cope with his physical strength or couldn't find a way through downpatricks defence only scoring 2 points from play

Scoreline mightnt reflect it but our lads put in a good shift aginst the bridge tonight. We struggled in the 1st half to put the ball over the bar and big Magee missed nothing at full forward. 2nd half we broke even with the bridge at midfield and picked off a few good scores. A scrappy goal for the blues won it for them and they were comfortable after that. Our lads are concentrating on Saval and this was good preparation...we should have a few more lads back from injury and USA by then.

Fair play to Donegal who I hope go on to win the final. In the debate about our standing, is it right that we are the only team to have beaten the three teams left in the competition this year ? James will make his own mind up as to whether he wants to put in a huge shift for the fourth year but he has given us three great years and the decision should be his alone.

DUBH DRIOCHT? YOU PAINT A LOVELY LITTLE PICTURE OF JAMES.in the last  year we have been thrashed by two of those teams you were refering to .i cant remember such humiliating scores for some time.
