Down Club Hurling & Football

[stpauls]

Think the Junior draw will be announced after Bosco v Glenn's game on Sat week.

who cares, i hate to say it but glenn are gonna walk it

obviously, even though they could only draw with Bosco!! 

[No1]

I am amazed that the legend that is Neil Sharvin from Kilclief has been left off the list of recent Down hurlers.   

DF and Baile, calm yourselves.  Are yiz not all the one parish anyhow?

the way things are going soon be one team.....
unless the boys get back from afganistan quick

[thewobbler]

With the flat tracks bullies like Ballyholland, Downpatrick and Atticall not going to get in the way, the IFC should be a very interesting competition this year. Of the four, only Ballymartin have won this title before (1993). All four teams will really believe they can win it.

Ballymartin would be marginal favourites in terms of personnel, but I'd imagine that Kilclief's strong, experienced team are the ones to beat as we move towards winter football.

No.1 will be delighted to get my vote.

Simi final Draw

Kilcoo v Burren
Clonduff v Loughinisland

Kilcoo Burren should be a great game. McKernan missing for Burren so i would give Kilcoo the nod here. As for the Loughinisland Clonduff game, dont have a clue what will happen Clonduff beat them twice in the league, but loughinisland never had a full team. Bit of a biased prediction, but going to say Loughinisland by 2. Think its absolutely hilarious that Loughinisland have got the easiest draw they could have two years in a row and now with a bit of luck could be in another championship final!

Mid down gael stated the same thing a few pages ago. Are you also suffering from the early dementia? Fully accept this years draw has been kind and although Clonduff will be favourites on current form, Burren and Kilcoo would be, looking at it objectively, the tougher draw.

However, those with short memory's seem to forget that when we beat Rostrevor and Burren on the way to the final last year they were (excepting Mayobridge) many peoples pick to win it on this board. I am assuming by your post you must consider Burren and Rostrevor easy touches.

No not early dementia, I just don't sit glued to this site and read every single post like a t**t
Well last year we beat a poor Rostrevor side and were unbelievebly lucky against Burren, two, if not three, of them goals were as lucky as you could get. At the end of the day we were still in the final, but its laughable to think that Loughinisland could be in another final, given the terrible league form so far! And this coming from a Loughinisland man

Why join the site in the first place and start to post on it if it's for t**ts?

I'll add these boys then:

Neil Sharvin  (Kilclief)

Karol Shields (Kilclief) - Dropped shortly after borrowing the manager's shoes to get into the Carrickdale on the way home from a match.   

[Downboy]

Did young Burke from Kilclief not also hurl for the County at one stage?

[Lecale2]

How could I forget Donal Byers?? He's given me his name often enough. 

When did Darren Flynn play for the county?

He is currently on the squad but gets limited game time.
