Sigerson Cup 2009

[mountainboii]

I see Paul Courtney won himself another year of Sigerson football there last week. Anyone know who has the record for playing the most years consecutively?

I'd take short odds on at Mr Kevin McGourty.

[imtommygunn]

What about Jim McGuinness?

[Zulu]

The 'Pony' would have a few as well, 4 with UCC and 3 with Tralee I think.

[INDIANA]

Parkinson as well has had more universities than Stan Collymore had clubs.

[descartes]

didn't Paul Casey play 8 years in a row with DCU. apparently he had to get a special dispensation to play in his final year because a rule was brought in saying you can only play 7 years of sigerson without advancing, so technically for him to have played in his 8th year he should have been doing a Masters and not an undergraduate degree, but since he did 2 four year undergraduate degrees, 1st in business and then in sports science, he found himselg doing inot his 8th year of university and still and under grad. reckon he must be close to the record anyway.


Does anybody know the Sigerson all star/Hot Shot team for 2009??

I know it was announced during the week but i cant find it anywhere online.
One of the 15 places is awarded to a trench cup player and the rest are carved up among the sigerson players who competed in the competition that year.
Just curious to see the breakdown of who got awards!

My understanding was that he wouldnt be eligible next year as universities could only play one sabbatical officer at a time and they could only play for one year.  I thought this rule was brought in about 2 years ago although i may be wrong

Heard on the grapevine that Dan Goulding, Paul Kerrigan, Charlie Vernon and Sean O'Neill are all new additions to the Poly this year

Big players alright.


I'm hearing that St. Mary's are planning a few big signings both this year and next.

Heard that as well - I'd be surprised if both major ones for next year actually come off though.

[Overthebar!]

anyword on how murphy from donegal got on with his leaving cert again this year? had tally not him lined up as well?

suprised vernon would even kick ball for j'town. courtney would prob fall out with him if he did too....

[nutsy--1]

i'd be very suprised if Vernon played ball for the Poly, he took his queens football very serious.

[Madge]

i'd be very suprised if Vernon played ball for the Poly, he took his queens football very serious.

As did James McGovern and others... If he is going to the Poly to do a masters and had the offer of getting free accommodation and what not you think he would turn it down and miss out on playing Sigerson for a year which he clearly loves?

Who did you hear was for St Mary's Orangeman?

There's talk of a returning Aussie rules player. Might be idle speculation but who knows ?.
