Antrim Hurling

[Jesusjones]

Delighted to be Ulster champions and out on our own with 11. McManus unstoppable again. Gutted for Graffin but if anyone can come back from this it's him. Really disappointed by Ballycran some really dirty off the ball stuff as well as a few particularly bad pulls under the dropping ball as well. They should have had more players sent off.

Great win from the lads, super performances from SD,  Graffin, Matty and MOM McManus who was unreal again today. Although I don't know why he has to take the abuse he got today 3 late strikes to the head and no Red Cards, the Ref was embarrassing, but no less so that the Ballycran players who obviously couldn't hurl him. Last word to Graff, what a player,  leader, Gent, he'll be back for Feb no doubt.
Sorry hard Luck to Emmett's lack of experience  both on and Off the field perhaps caught them out.

Being out on your own feels good. Doesn't it JJ?

Out on their own without winning an all Ireland?

Never thought of that.

The standard of reffing in Ulster club championship at all levels leaves a lot to be desired IMO. Too many Ulster club matches turn into a free fest. We should appreciate the good standard in Antrim if you ask me.

On a separate note, a lot of chat that the castlbalney free that won the match was actually wide . I wasn't at an angle to offer an opinion but any views out there?

We've won more Ulster championships than anyone else. Sorry for mentioning it and sorry for not genuflecting for you SIE.

From where I was sitting I had thought it was wide, but when the flag went up I just took it that the umpire had got it right.

Whats the damage to Graffin? Will he be available for the semi-final?

I don't believe that those wee angels from Ballycran would be up to that. I thought it was only us.

Hope OE learned a valuable lesson if he was at that game yesterday as I am led to believe one of the wee angels involved in an incident with one of our lads in a league game was no sooner on the field and buried the hurl into the back of McManus.
Wonder if there'll be any letters sent to the Ulster Council like they send to Antrim CCC on the sly!!!

I hear the semi and final are to be played before the end of the year. Any truth in this JJ?

McManus the class act in a poor game of hurling.

Ballycran free taking was as bad as I have ever seen at Senior level and how they beat Slaughtneil by  the score they did I do not know they were brutal and could easily have had 3/4 men sent off but the man from DONEGAL in the middle.. I'll say no more

Graffin with bad luck again hopefully he will be back on the pitch again soon never nice to see an injury like that to any player.
