Antrim Hurling

[Last Man]

With Jonty at the helm will it ever be normal service? I for one doubt it! And it looks our sham man is purposely trying to get gassed, things must be getting to hot under his collar.

You cant knock what he has achieved with this group.

I don't think anybody knows lecale, including the fixtures committee.

He's from st galls. And I wish he would just fcuk off.  I can't wait to see him face to face. Just to prove my point to him.

I like a good debate so who do we think is the best hurler in ulster at the present time?

[Milltown Row2]

Nuala vallely rest in peace.

Yes my condolences also. Very saddened by her death. Any of our posters who have been at Casement will have recognise Nuala as the only woman steward.

Rest in peace.

No offence to you Enthusiast, but it's a stupid debate that has no real answer to it, as certain posters will have their own choice and stick with it regardless.


KARL STEWART IS THE BEST IN ULSTER  [/size]


Antrim are +9 (with the bookies) for the game away to Clare this Sunday. Is that a fair reflection of where Antrim currently sit?

Do any of you boyos know anything about Alan Kelly (Galway)? He's been given the refereeing job for the final next week according to the GAA.ie site.

He reffed Antrim Laois in the first round last year. Thought he was pretty pernickety (certainly more so than Anthony Stapleton would be). Sent off Neal McAuley with a straight red for an off the ball incident that I didn't see and I dont think he saw (but relied on a linesman, I think) so not gun shy!

Think he sent off Matthew Donnelly when playing for Antrim minors against the Dubs in Crossmaglen - game was very even at the time and that effectively ended it. Was not at that game but heard from a couple of people at the Antrim Cork quarter final the next day who considered it very very harsh decision.

It would seem a man not afraid to give a red card!

Oh SIE we are not focussing on the ref are we??

Let's hope he doesn't have a big part to play.

The debate (?) on best hurler is irrelevant - how to you compare a keeper to a full forward to a midfielder etc. Let's focus on real stuff.

MR2 u should do ur bets earlier in the week - the handicap was only 7points on Tuesday so I assume a few punters have driven in out to 9. Think home advantage is worth a few points here i think
Clare will win with a bit to spare - but I was wrong v wexford and hopefully again. 

[Seamroga in exile]

What's your problem? I was asking if anyone knew anything about him. As I hadn't heard of him. Wind your neck in.


Thanks cloot. Nothing wrong with showing the red if it's the correct decision. I thought Stapleton should've shown one for the neck tackle on skinner in the semi.

He's a good lad and is a Garda during the 9-5, genuine to the last, can be a bit of a nervous lad though and this is his biggest stage yet on the national career front. Struggles with fitness and if the game is at a blistering pace I feel he may be found wanting in that dept, especially if some calls are made from distance which he has had a tendency to do in the past, croker is a big pitch! However he plays it from a straight bat, and I really do hope his nerves don't get the better of him as the only ones to suffer will be the two teams. He will however let it go, you can be sure of that!

Nuala Vallely was a lovely woman RIP
