2019 All Ireland Football Qualifiers

[Joeythelips]

I dont think people are looking for excuses, they just want a bit of realism in the argument. We still are a team that got a hiding off Meath and lost to Westmeath twice in the league. There is no doubt Cork are on a downward spiral and their league form was horrendous but they will be fully confident they will send our lads packing. Im confident if Laois play to their potential they can win this, but we have yet to see their full potential yet.

Can't get the kick outs away, can't get at there's. Pace up the middle killing us

Disaster start to second half.

Cork looked very shambolic.

Hard luck to all involved. Good year for Laois across the board, regardless. We're not at that level yet but we're making good progress. We'll be back stronger for 2020. Looking forward to switching the attention now to the underage and also the hurlers at OMP. Huge respect and praise deserved for all involved this year and thanks for some good days out along the way. Onwards and upwards

Yes I am.

Hard luck indeed to the lads. Listened on Midlands 103 and goals obviously took the stuffing out of us. Like the Meath match we seemed to miss the goal chances when every chance needed to be taken. Hopefully division 2 football will stand to them and hopefully not as open in the backs.

Quick question, are Mark Barry and Sean O'Flynn available to play u20s Tuesday or is it once you play higher grade, can't go back down to 20s. It would be great for that bunch to make a Leinster final and get on a run.
Overall got back to Division 2, back to final 12, new additions blooded and hopefully we keep building. Onwards and upwards.
On a side note credit to Brian Hurley for Cork today. Through the ringer with 2 career threatening knee and hamstring injuries and did awful damage today and took his goals well. A fine footballer.

Yep to Tuesday

Cork are no use Tony,  but still have faith in Sugrue but that was winnable.

Thanks, the U11s were flying it this morning

Not sure they're no use, they've power and pace and that'll take you a long way. We're moving upwards but slowly. I'm happy enough with the year, a lot to build on.

[High Fielder]

Damage done by half time. They convincingly wiped us out in midfield and we should have tried something different. Far too much pressure on our backs as a result, a lot of whom are out of position or not this standard yet. Going forward ourselves, we did some good things. Donie was all class today and I hope he stays going while Lowry really stepped up too. Our backs need some specialist coaching particularly with their tackling. I hope we can find an odd player or two that would free up Attride and Dillon. Corner back is not for them. Maybe we are forever destined to play the square pegs in round holes game. I personally think that a weaker player in his natural position is better than a good player in an unnatural position.

[Giovanni]

Especially when the position is corner back

[Blow-in]

Decided to leave Denis booth on until 3-4 was kicked off him. You'd really have to question the management on a number of times this year.

[on the hop]

4-20 is unbelievable score to concede. A complete systems failure or a lack of a system or maybe options to adjust to what was happening. Two heavy defeats and seven goals conceded against teams that we thought realistically we could beat to show progression. Under 20 is vital on tuesday
