Reality is Ulster has only won 2 All Ireland senior club titles. Same as county, we're just not at that level. Ulster is probably Slaughtneil's ceiling. Loughrea whole other level.. unfortunately.

That's two more than won at Senior Intercounty level and a heck of a lot more AI final appearances also than at Intercounty level.

It's been a good while since an Ulster Team looked out of their depth at senior club and even though Sleacht Néill were beaten by a good margin in the end they didn't let anyone in Derry or Ulster down by their performance.

Hurling can be cruel on a team when it comes to the scoreboard whereas in football a crap team can park the bus, get beat by 4 or 5 points, but never actually look like ever winning the game.

More so under the old rules than the over the top offensive heavy new rules that was put in place this year.
