Well done Portlaoise! Have had a real rags to riches season for them. Delighted for them. We need Portlaoise back at the top table.

Eddie Brennan will be playing against them in the final, if I'm not mistaken? It'll be a tough match for Portlaoise, but it'd be great if they could do it!

Eddie  playing for Grange and his selector  Tommy Fitz for Portlaoise.  Really hope Pl  win.....  a few good young fellas  coming  through  with them.  County  champions  you'd be happy following

Tommy Fitz a gent of a man who gave his all to Laois year in year out. Quite the contrast with elsewhere.

Well done to Portlaoise. On a separate note, any truth in rumour of a tie up between Abbeyleix and Ballinakill.

His goal against Galway the year in OMP in Leinster hurling championship being up there with my personal GAA highlights/memories. As commentator said on Sunday game that night a roar which nearly lifted the roof of the stand. Great day, even in defeat.

Being in talks the last few weeks, heard they were going well but hadnt got to the serious stuff at that stage

Serious rows over who'll wash the jerseys I believe

Would it be cheeky to suggest there's now no GAA club in Abbeyleix? Football is Ballyroan Abbey and hurling will named something else!

Will be interesting to see the breakdown of teams for the 2 clubs if it happens. Wonder would the Harps be promoted to Senior if this happens and the combination of Ballinakill/Abbeyleix go Senior B. Whether it will be passed at AGMs will also be interesting.
It's hardly possible to build anything if frustration, bitterness and a mood of helplessness prevail

I hear that Slieve Bloom pulled their lads from the u21 with Castletown this morning, once again the issues of jerseys appears to of been behind it. Lessons from the past dont appear to be learned
