Ulster JFC/IFC 2026

After a year or two of Junior teams playing Division 2 or 1

We will have a Senior team that will be playing Division 3 football next year in Cavan.

What are our fellow Ulster Gaels opinions on this.

Is league football still the true arbitrator of a teams standards?

Which Senior team in Division 3 in Cavan next year? Don't think you're correct on that, but agree that overall that league is not a true arbiter any more. Sure Edendork are prime example of that

eh, Edendork are a Tyrone Div 1 standard team and played senior championship.

And if lost final were in relegation trouble.

Can see Rostrevor going into a lead early on but the Rock will probably make a come back and beat them.

To beat the Rock you can't take the foot off the accelerator at any stage even if you are well ahead with only 5 minutes left.

[befair]

Is the Rock/Rostrevor game being televised anywhere? UlsterGAA.tv seems to be extinct

Yeah its on ulster gaa tv. They had a facebook post up earlier.

Thanks

Yet their League form suggested relegation material. This is my exact point, they're clearly a very good team in Championship, and we can not rely on League

I'm sure their 3 all star level county players make a wee bit of difference come championship time

Well, there's Division 1 team bad and Division 3 team bad to factor in. In regular counties obviously.

Yes obviously. Which is still my point about judging on Championship

What did I tell yous! When dealing with the Rock this is a tale as old as time.

Just thinking of this statement lol

[mrdeeds]

Lacken won pulling up, no surprise there.

[RedHand88]

At the Rock V Rostrevor game and some of the Rostrevor ones behaviour near the end of the first half was embarrassing. It was like  Milan 2005.

They thought the second half would be a procession. Had they never watched a Rock championship game before now?

Yet it's not, as they haven't been within an Asses roar of a championship recently, and had never won one. But with straight knock out, anything can happen. For some, that's the glory of it.

This Junior be a cakewalk for Fintona?

Thought Lacken would be strong for it but serious pace in that Fintona team which Lacken don't have.

What league division did Lacken play in this year SOTB?

Div 1, 2, 3 or 4?
