Down Club Hurling & Football

[TORGAEL]

Its hard to understand how Packie Downey cant get a starting place on the u-21 team.

[downredblack]

Where have the goals gone from this Down team ? We were good for 1 or 2 a game nearly under POR and I think we have one from a penalty so far this year . Does anyone know how Rafferty , Doyle , Rodgers , McCartan's injuries are doing ? I see Alan Molloy wasn't named in the programe yesterday ,  I heard his knees are gone anyone know the score here ?

[spiritof91and94]

Can anyone answer this; why Packie Downey couldnt start for the U21's on Saturday, yet has been called up with J.Boyle, J.Colgan and K.McKernan to the Senior Panel. Only these 4 players were asked although I would have thought Luke Howard was in contention -
Very surprised though that Joe Ireland didnt hoodwink his way on as well!!!!

[Brick Tamlin]

Only answer to that i can think of is that its two different management set-ups, differing opinions on different players etc, but admittedly it is strange to see that happen. Id say the four U21s will get some game time in the seniors two remaining league fixtures and 1 or 2 may well be in contecntion come championship time.

[DownFanatic]

I would have McKernan and Boyle on the Senior panel. I wouldnt have Downey and Colgan any where near it. Beleive it or not I am confident of our Championship chances. I think Ross and DJ are doing the right thing in experimenting. So what if we are playing in Division 3 next year. If we are good enough we will spring back up again in to Div 2.
Our performances can only improve and I think with our strongest side out we will peak at the right time.

[Blue Island]

- I see Alan Molloy wasn't named in the programe yesterday ,  I heard his knees are gone anyone know the score here ?-

His knees are not gone, but they are in danger of going. He has pulled out of the county panel but intends to play for Loughinisland. He played in a challenge match on Sunday, so they have not as yet become so unstable that he cannot play.

When he was training for Down, his knees were flairing up quite badly after every training session and he did not feel he could train at the intensity you need to at county level. Ross has left the door open and has asked him to return in the future if his knee improves. At the time of writing that is unlikely, but sometimes these injuries clear up quicker than you think.

If any club U-16 team is looking a Friendly within the next three weeks throw me a line. Preferably a B Section team from South Down. Cheers.

[Bacon]

Would that be football or hurling DownFanatic? I can sort out a hurling friendly at u16. BTW does anyone know what's happening about the juvenile hurling fixtures? The first set were withdrawn and were to be re-drafted. The underage leagues should have started by now.

[Lecale2]

Bacon - I'm trying to find out what's happening as well. Our minors were due to play Ballygalget on Monday but no fixtures appeared in the Irish News. The web site fixtures haven't been updated since last October.

I take it the juvenile fixtures are set by the hurling board.

Thanks JC. These haven't got as far as me yet.

[DownFanatic]

Bacon, it's an U-16 Football Friendly Id be lookin. Preferably for a Thursday night. We don't mind hosting or travelling. It's the St Joseph's (Ballykinlar/Dundrum) U-16 team I take .

[DownFanatic]

Well done to St Columbans who won the All Ireland today by 7 points.
