Replay required to find a winner.
I thought games at this stage had to be finished on the day?

That's the qualifiers.
The provincial councils hung on to right to hold replays after extra time for the moolah.
Right, I thought all games before the provincial semi-finals had to be settled. Probably mixing it up with the fact that extra-time must be played.

And For this replay. if level after extra time an extra 2x10 minute period of extra time will be required and if still level then a penalty competition.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Judging by the highlights, the Larries were cruelly denied victory at the death, twice over. They are still in it but I'd be singing the blues if I was a Larry, oh cruel life!

Shamrock Shore

Dems the breaks Main Street - cuda, shuda etc.

But a draw was a fair result in a roller coaster game that entertained everyone there, including the Laoises/Westmeaths that hung on (Jazes, their game was shockingly bad and, had it gone to extra time, there could have been a riot)

Never got in contact with Dinny to buy him that cup of tea. There was great craic with myself and the brother with 5 Kildare lads who were hilarious with the quips. I can see how frustrated some Lilly supporters are so Dinny, you are not alone.

So, all in all, 10/10 for sheer entertainment. Some great scores, lively banter, thrills and spills.

Must say, as a nod to the Offaly boys, Tullamore is a wonderful venue now, having being a kip before.

Here's to next Sun

It's not tea I need :)

Kildare are very frustrating, a lot of talent in the county in and out of that squad. O'Neill struggles on the tactical side (game plan and team selection) and technically our tackle lets us down repeatedly, the backroom team is a revolving door so a lot of issues are O'Neills own making. The players though, their body language is not good, low on confidence and my perception is they don't have that pride in the jersey as for example Longford would. It means we are inconsistent and always vulnerable to a run. Throw in a Leinster Championship where one team is financially doped to the gills and that same team get to play the semi-final and final at home, players aren't stupid, motivation can be hard.

Kildare epitomise the malaise that's currently inflicted the championship, they should be better, they should be better supported. If they played in any other province, they would be better supported and possibly an AI contender but they don't so are stuck in the shadows.  Meath are similar and are getting a bounce this year and people will point to it and look Meath can rise from the shadows, if Meath can overcome Laois, they won't be within 10 of Dublin or maybe they get a moral victory but they won't make the super 8 and will get relegated next year, then what?

It will be another good game next Sunday, the reward a 7 day turnaround, 3 games on the bounce and your playing the AI Champions. Superb fixture planning....

Ain't that the truth. I was leaving the Longford game numerous times as it looked done but they kept rising from the dead. Was more interested in seeing Longford sneak a winner than us scraping an undeserved draw. Super game, had everything. Great game management from Longford at the end of normal time to run down the clock, keep the ball and in the last 10 seconds create an incursion inside the 45 and get a shot off knowing that Kildare wouldn't have time to get back up the field if it went over. And of course it dramatically came back off the post. Some sore bodies today I'd say, the hits in extra time could be felt in the stand.
Westmeath - Home of the Christy Ring Cup...

Perhaps the winner of the replay should put out their U20s against Dublin , to give their squad a rest for the Round 2 qualifier? Can you imagine the media reaction to it!

It would make sense. If next Sunday's game is as physical as yesterday's neither team will be in shape to take on the best and probably most physical team in the country.

Was at the match yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. Kildare scored a point directly from a mark in the first half. A quick check on google states that this was illegal. Has their been a change in the law regarding this.

I misread it  ::)- the player who makes the mark can score but if another player takes the kick then they cannot score from it

The shoulder that Cian O'Donoghue took was a monster hit from the Longford man.

Great entertainment throughout. Credit to both teams.

I'd chance Aaron O'Neill in goal the next day and give Niall Kelly a starting place ahead of Brophy or O'Flaherty. We're going nowhere fast this summer but nice to have another day out all the same. Would love another crack at Carlow/Poacher!!
There's Seán Brady going in, what dya think Seán?

OTB AM asked this question this morning, good to see the board is still relevant in MSM.
