Down Club Hurling & Football

[Blackandblue2]

A great win, and a brilliant performance to go along with it. A balanced team that works hard and a few players capable of moments of magic. Wide open spaces of Croke Park should suit this team. 2 matches away from silverware. Would be a good end to a bumpy season.

Does Barry OHagan not play with Down anymore ? Also will Niall McParland be fit for this weekend ? Looking from the outside in the Kilcoo lads seem to have strengthened up the Down panel this year . As a Laois man we would be very worried about the pace and direct running of Down in the wide open spaces of croke park

Barry OHagan got bad cruciate injury in an early league game and is out for the foreseeable, Niall Mcparland hasn't played since the Armagh game, he won't be involved either, again through injury. Down will definitely be hoping to avail of any space and attack with pace. Laois seemed to have picked in the last few weeks, beating Fermanagh was definitely a shock.

Can anyone tell me what happens in Div 4 after tonight's fixtures?  I believe the league splits into top six and bottom six.  Does that mean each club then has 5 more league fixtures or 10?  Or does the split have some relevance to the JFC?

Yes, I have asked our committee and I'm none the wiser!!

Down have named the same 1st 15, that they named v Cavan. Mason came in for McAleenan last week, I'd expect the same to happen again.

Shane Annett and Ryan McEvoy impressed when introduced last week, I wouldn't be suprised if either or both nudged their way in for a start.

Teams in each section play one more round of games against eachother, meaning 16 league games played in total. Not sure if there is any bearing on the championship though.

McEvoy should definitely be starting
