Replying To farneygael3: "Another spanking handed out today" A a few of the naomh conail players owe our club nothing, a few all Ireland medals in that team already. Not to many all Ireland medals in Monaghan

I reckon in the next couple of decades you'll have a semi pro/full pro inter county c'ship with a maximum of ten teams if even that. Maybe you'll have a second division comp made of amateur regional sides and second tier counties

Strong display by Moycullen in what was a banana skin, very much showed why they are favourites to win the Connacht senior title

Replying To S1234: "Lol how are they in a better position then mayo?
How do you mean arguable? Lol They lost to Meath who got a beating of 20 points by Donegal.....
Top 4 means you were in the semis. Mayo only lost to Donegal by a last minutefluke of a point before they hammered meath and who meath knockedout Galway.
Galway so overated . Oh how are Longford doing btw ?" So Moore's wonderful burst of speed down the wing leaving the Mayo players for dust was a fluke was it? Ha ha, as you'd say yourself. Donegal should have been out of sight that day at half time only for some poor finishing that kept Mayo in it. The Longford poster is correct to say Galway are rated above Mayo at the minute, there's no need to insult his county. Mayo couldn't make it out of a group of four where three qualify. Stop kidding yourself. I've probably less sense replying to your nonsense.

Let he who's without sin cast the first stone and all that" A good person is someone who 'always' does the right thing? If that's the case, there isn't a good person on earth. Stop good lad.
I know plenty good people. They aren't perfect (nobody is), but they live a good life and look after others.

Replying To Gaaforlife2023: "True gaels can like one over other but respect both football as improved from where it was come on.
Yes hurling maybe better still football has improved.
What does dual counties mean as true gaels is it only galway cork tipp because they play Liam Mccarthy as well or kerry antrim offaly included in that they play both
For hurling to grow in single code counties it needs get to get some of reluctant football crowd on board as well" Wexford is a dual county in the truest sense. What I mean by that is almost all of our players play both codes.
Football not too strong at the moment but we have senior all Irelands in both and have had periods where we were competing at a high level in both codes.
Personally I think a best of Ulster outside Antrim, best of Connaught outside Galway would be good, but also a logistical nightmare and they'd be at a huge disadvantage.
Would a collective like that be capable of winning tier 2 or 3 even? I don't think so to be honest.
There was a time Derry and down could mix it with Antrim but even still Antrim were a level below Munster and Leinster.
It's a hard game to master if you're not fully in it.

Replying To Gaaforlife2023: "Pat would be fairly knowledgeable and fair ij fairness but haven't seen clough much it could equally suit them too so it could balance itself out didn't they make leinster final before maybe I am wrong.
Who do people think win or their chances?
Downs in football probably have a kinder draw" Realistically the draw could not be worse.Away to Clough Ballacolla and then away to the winners of Ballyhale and KK. It's very hard to call the Laois champions of 5 of the last 6 years against the WH champions of 3 of the last 4 in Portlaoise. Be there shout for CTG and hope for the best.

Replying To Longford92: "Dessie dolan would be fantastic appointment, would raise the profile of longford club fixtures. Granard looking for a manager also , will they cross the cavan border again to find the right man to push them to a t least a c/ship quarter final." A serious question, why would he be a fantastic appointment? Is it just his name or what?

Replying To S1234: "And why shouldn't a defender get an all star over a forward ? It's about how well you do in your position not about what position you play . Each position is just as important as the other." He All Stars have always been 1 GK, 6 Defenders, 2 Midfielders and 6 Forwards
Why would they change it this year to put a defender in at corner forward
Rightly or wrongly the people picking the team didn't think he was one 6 best defenders. To say he should been thrown in as one of 6 Forwards is silly

Kilcoo very comfortable last night in Omagh, Loughmacrory struggled with kilcoo intensity and work rate, there key men struggled to get into the game.
Conditions made handling difficult but still some very good football played, chatting to a few Loughmacrory men last night they weren't to downbeat as the team have had an unbelievable year and thats a young team who i think will be back on this stage again.

Replying To Claretandblue: "What is meant by players being looked after?" You'd imagine good coaching, S&C, player retention and perhaps this could lead to exposure at county level which would add a new level. I'm sure this applies to players on any club.

Replying To Marooned: "Kerry are out on their own I think. Although not unbeatable. Not much between the next 5 or 6 teams. Could all beat each other on any given day. And I'd include Galway amongst that bunch." Galway are a level or two below the main challengers to Kerry. Horrendously overrated team, I just don't get it. Being better than Mayo is no longer a yardstick for judging all Ireland credentials.
