Down Club Hurling & Football

[speculative]

Ridiculous to say that Kilcoo were sho-ins for the Championships they've won. If McCorry had of been manager of any of the Big 4 the past few years they would have won 3 in a row. He took a club that were invariably "also-rans" and turned them into one of the best club teams in Ulster.

Sorry but cant agree with you there was no team in Down on par with Kilcoo this year with or without McCorry...your telling me if McCorry had of been managing Burren in the final they would have won? I just cant see it myself.

What about Mayobridge? Many thought, myself including, they were worthy of a victory in the semi-final this year. Maybe not this year, but I'd say with almost certainty if he took Burren in last years Championship final there would have only been one winner. Also his tactical masterclass last year with his half time changes v The Bridge again got them over a difficult hurdle.

I think we will see his worth this year with his absence from Kilcoo

Danny Hughe's irish news column today suggests that Ambrose Rogers is gone. Any truth to this ?

Didn't get to the match in Newry yesterday, any reports?

[Ed Hardy]

Was surprised at the low turn out given the game was for such a good cause.. was very much like in house training game for Down. Best on show I thought were. Benny, Laverty,  Ryan and Jerome J.  Packie Downey, and G Collins also impressive. Any chance that D. Branagan will join up with the county sq? Could definitely do with him.

Great to see Packie Downeys name, Great player and even better person.  Was unstoppable out here in NY for a couple of summers.  Any word is Big Art Mc Conville back on scene?

yeah big Arthur is back on the panel and apparently going well.

[Carmen Stateside]

Great to hear that Sheedy. Another great fella.  Would Down operate him as a target man?
