Doubt hes allowed play,seen yday another afl player played a club match and his aussie club weren't impressed
Why not, he has come home and played before. What has changed? I think they will need every player available to get over Eire Og tomorrow evening

Tuohy is on a professional contract

What would happen if god forbid,he was to break his leg on portlaoise duty.

Would Geelong have to honor his contract,pay his medical bills etc even though he was hurt playing for another team.

You don't see soccer players with gaa club backgrounds rocking up to play games with their clubs over the summer when they would be off.

Does Tuohy have waiver in his contract which allows him to do it

Cant see him togging out but with fitness and strength he would be some addition to the squad

Portlaoise poor tonight. That Eire Og team are well drilled and have a few nice players. Portlaoise had no answer to them. Kieran Lillis best Portlaoise player once more despite sending off.

That Steven Poacher is just a horrible individual, probably the end of an era for Portlaoise.  Fair play to Eire Og. Can't have that Poacher at all just a self promoter.  Why do Carlow people think he is any good subjected them to the most atrocious football.  Read his tweets after the game.

Disgusting tweets put up by poacher rubbing salt in the wounds . Carlow are way better off without that bollocks around the place . Offers nothing at all just a self promoter .Thank God he's gone Back up to the north .

He blocked me for replying "that he spent most of the year suspended",  how people actually respect him.

Lillis was stand out performer tonight even though he was sent off. I cant see what mcevoy offers beside him and also Boyle and rickie have not done it this year. As for brody???? I'll leave that one for the real experts

End of an era. It's been coming gradually. Eire Og would do well to ignore the hype around them including from that eejit Poacher. They beat the worst Portlaoise team of the last 5 years and I saw plenty of defincies that they need to focus on whoever they meet in the final. A deserved win nevertheless and good luck to them.

A lot of work is needed in Portlaoise GAA. There's an ocean ok kids in Rathleague every week, and yet support for the club is terrible. Aside from that, for a community of its size, it punches well below its weight on so many fronts. The majority of CB officers hate Portlaoise, so unless you want to talk about splitting the club up, they pay it no regard. This of course is detrimental to Laois, because one third of the population resides in the town. Little surprise then that we are slowly diluting our standards as time goes on. Too many clubs. Too many bad players playing at a level they can't cope with

You consider yourself expert enough to give your judgement on others. Don't hold back. In my opinion, the lad is top class.

Fair play to eire og, they wanted it more .best of luck in final, this year will hurt portlaoise, it was not good enough by anyones standards.

As for yer man poacher, if he was in charge of eire og they would have lost , a loser lost on Twitter whilst real coaches like Joe Murphy coach real teams to finals and beyond

Bad night for portlaoise ok but this team have given alot of people happy memories. They need to rebuild. I'm not sure their demise is good for laois football although alot of the other clubs will be delighted by it

Interesting to see if Rigney gets another year. I wonder would they go bak to McNulty again?

I wouldn't rule out portlaoise next year lads , Healy and cahillane  will be back...the young lads will have another year to progress , I expect Saunders, Dowling, Larkin, mcevoy and jason Maher to be big players for next year, and a couple more to bring even more youth to this team. Make no mistake portlaoise are not going away.

This year was poor, the poorest it's been in many many years and still county champions despite this fact, it makes you wonder if they were not beaten by this year how the hell will they be beaten next year when surely they wont be as bad again...I expect some changes, a couple to step away but that's natural and good in terms of the squad.

I dont blame rigney one iota, he and the club were left in a desperate situation and made the best of it..he is a brilliant  clubman who stood up to the plate when no one wanted the job and a man I admire greatly.Do I expect him there next year , absolutely not.As I said before this year will desperately hurt portlaoise and every step will be taken to make things right.

On a side note, harsh enough to have u20 senior at 2pm today...
