Shrewdness

It`s getting hard to keep up with our teams these days.If it`s not a venue changes, it`s dates and times changes.
At this rate, we`re liable to turn up anywhere.

Galway Ros is a tough game to call.
Not really sure how Galway have been going recently to be honest.
We're a bit of an unknown quantity.
Plenty of the 2013 minors not involved now.my own club had 4 on that panel and none of them are on this u21 squad for various reasons.
There should still be plenty of talent to work with.
Gerry Fahy as manager on the other hand - I wouldn't be too positive about.
Been there done that at both minor and u21 level before and was a disaster.
Hopefully that can change this year

Well at least you're giving the walking wounded a fair shot. Whoever wins will be fair underdogs against the Mayo galacticos. If that man who does the match reports like he's reading poetry on Mid-West is to be be other teams are lucky to be able to keep the ball kicked out to them.

Some good players available alright. Lads like Peter Cooke, Enda Tierney, Michael Daly. Eamonn Brannigan has been very lively for the seniors in the league. Have no idea how they'll go though. Like yourself I would not be convinced about the management this year at all.

Really? I'll be pleasantly surprised if we manage a canter at U21 or minor yet again this year.

Ye brought in the Solans after Tan Man let the microphone and his ego wreck his chances. Obvious to see Mayo are aiming big with their minor winning team. We might give ye a game of we have a while to get fit but Galway may put paid to that this week. Anything less than Connavht this year could o lay be seen as a disappointment for Mayo.

After the Celtic Tiger, is Eadestown a club more or less in Dublin anyway?

If you're asking whether it's part of the urban sprawl then no, it's still very much a rural club. Quite close to the border though.

The Wicklow border

I meant Dublin in this case. Only five miles or so from enemy territory.

Croí na hÉireann

Bollox, was hoping we were getting a home draw for the semi-final, need all the help we can get. Match fixed for tomorrow week in O'Moore Park, Portlaoise.
Westmeath - Home of the Christy Ring Cup...

Didn't see the listed subs so not sure what our depth is like. Colin Brady started last year wing forward and is underage again.Not sure if he is injured or out of favour.
Wing back last year Dylan Corbett didn't make the panel this year.

I'm surprised too that Brady & Corbett are not on the team considering they both played last year.

I think at least 9 of this of this team are available again next year at this level.
