County left that behind them today. All square and Wexford lose a man then they hit last 3 scores of half?! Then a whole half against 14? They can't keep losing these tight games and say it was a good performance there comes a time when they have to take their chances and punish teams.

Excellent performance from Antrim today against a very fancied Wexford. Well done to Rossa on their All Ireland success. Their next championship match is against us in the Antrim 1/4 final.

Well done Rossa, that's Antrim winning all levels now....

Well done to Rossa. I have been very critical of the club on this forum in the past and their "social" hurling ethos. Hands up and eating my words now. Whilst the big tests lie ahead I really enjoyed the win today and more so they spoke of senior ambitions. Hope HS you can take this forward. My nephew was on a Rossa bus and on the way home 2 people were turned away with alcohol as juveniles present. Credit due to those concerned.

What's the feeling on wexford park? I thought we would have lost heavily.

Serious effort by Antrim today who must feel that they are heading in the right direction.

Well done Rossa.

congrats to Rossa. well done to all involved

big year ahead for them now as they move back up to the top level again. it will be interesting to see how they cope with move up and how they develop.

Hurlingstick knows his stuff
Nigel Elliott - Cruciate Ligament; Sean Burke - In Australia; Benny - In America; Saul - unable to committ but part of the u21 set up.
Then our 6 forwards + plus the 4 brought in rack up 2-20 in Wexford Park.
Keep an eye on the league - see how many teams rack up 2-20 in Wexford Park. I'll guess none.

Fair play to Kevin Ryan and his team.

yeah Nigel did his cruciate that day against cdall in the semi final. he got the op done and is now going through his recovery training.

he wont be near the county set up this season

have to agree. 2-20 is impressive scoring away from home but as per usual we don't see a game out and lose it. we have got rectify that if we are ever to make any progress!

All seeing/Dr... What about Nicky Mckeague? I've been watching him closely for 3 years now. He's very small but also very talented. Do you think he could cut it?

Na Glinntí Glasa · February 16, 2015, 12:52:24 PM

nickys stick work is great and his free taking is also very good. but his size sort of is a weak point. he can get pushed off a ball by a stronger/taller player.

loads of guts and not one ounce of fear in him on the pitch and a good forward but prob not physically strong enough for the county

hurlingstick · February 16, 2015, 01:35:31 PM

Sounds about right. It's a shame because he has bags of talent. Still, any defender without pace would get things tough against him. I remember his free taking display against Cushendall (I think) at Glenariffe a couple of seasons ago in the Feis cup. He was deadly.
