Antrim Hurling

Look at the surface at Croke compared to Armagh, world of difference

Croke park hosts a fraction of the games Armagh Athletic grounds hosts

Was at the match and the surface was like a billiard table compared to a lot of places in December.

Ulster clubs are traditionally very competitive at the semi final stage and do well against Galway teams non more so than Dunloy themselves. However I'd be a wee bit worried about only scoring 12 points.

Not much quality from either team but Dunloy won't be worried about that this evening (or tomorrow!). There has been a lot said and written about how Dunloy weren't able to cope with S'neils physicality - not today. Despite being smaller in most positions they stood their ground and gave S'neil their fill of it when required. They also did well to ride out an onslaught in the second half. It looked like their lead was going to be overtaken as S'neil were motoring at one stage but couldn't land a killer blow.

Congratulations Dunloy

A serious effort by the neighbours,worked like dogs all day and put the body on the line.Sneil looked poor and as someone said above stick work was awful at times.Take nothing away from the Victors. Now it's up to everyone to catch Dunloy

Yeah that was my take, Sneil very so poor for long periods, wrong decisions, the amount of lifts Brendan Rodgers missed was crazy but I suppose they were right there at the end. Dunloy fought like dogs all day. Sneil FB line very dodgy all day

Semi-Final v St Thomas was scheduled for 17th Dec but there's a club wedding. Game has been pushed back to the following day.

Not sure that is going to be the case, not sure GAA will be wanting to open Croker on the day of the World Cup Final.

Could be wrong but I'd have thought a double header on the Saturday would be the way to go.
