The Sunday Game

[From the Bunker]

From a westmeath perspective what Hound said is true. Even when Westmeath should have beaten Meath in the past they couldn't get over the line. That All Ireland QF back in 2002 or 2003 was brutal.

2001?

[AZOffaly]

Maybe. I thought it was later.

RTE HD but with Ger Canning, so non-HD on BBC it is. That's how annoying Canning is.

You have to have huge sympathy for Plámás, having to work so hard!


I might arrive in Donnybrook at 11am, but I'll still be there 12 hours later. And, if I have two main gripes, they'd have to be the food and the travel. The RTE canteen is a holocaust on good dietary habits, so I tend to bring my own lunch. But that's never enough and, at some point, I'll end up horsing into a plate of stuff I shouldn't.

And the late night drive back down south isn't a ball of laughs either, knowing I'm due in class first thing the following morning.

In fairness he's a better writer than almost all of the trained ones.

Brolly spot on for once.

Is what he is saying true? It sounds unlikely to me that all of it is true.

Lot of great stuff by Joe, club v county....

Which bit, that Colm's Meath team were ugly?
That's a downright lie.

Club v country but that meath team was ugly

Totally agree wish they had continued discussion for an hour. It made have ultimately showed up county boards and provincials councils and the GPA for what they all are, self serving.
Reduce season by a month to six weeks would be a simple solution, yet two of counties that voted against reducing it by two weeks were Galway (who never can finish their club championships )and Cork who have shit county teams and f all supporters at football level.
I hope they return to this discussion again in the near future

What did Brolly say?
