Himself and Paul O Connor need to move on and let Malone take the reigns if there's any hope of any progression

Predictions and a Punt are a little different. And it was a winner. Check back my pre season predictions and then get back to me.

Looks like Barry McBennet is the only Monaghan representative for the trial games at the weekend with Jason Irwin on the reserve list. antok (Monaghan) - Posts: 9 - 16/10/2024 18:56:44 2575369 Link 0 |
No idea but on paper Connacht have the strongest team and Munster the weakest from my reading of the panels. It'll surely be roll on roll off subs with 2 games in 2 days? Looking forward to it to be honest. MrPBoylan (Monaghan) - Posts: 203 - 17/10/2024 09:30:07 2575427 Link 0 |
I fear for this competition before it starts, zero marketing, only a few die hards knows that its on, will be played in a empty Cork Park with the optics looking terrible, its on prime time TV where the premiership will be on the other stations, with pack out stadiums. They should have least try to play it in different part of the country, where you might get a bit better of a crowd.

I agree it should be somewhere other than Dublin. Clones, Thurles, Ennis, Galway, Tullamore, Mullingar even? There has been a bit of media talk from what I've seen. Newstalk, RTE and the Indo have done bits on it. €15 for 4 games isn't bad value, for that alone you may well see a good Cavan crowd.

as an organization we don't promote our games enough, apart from the lads doing podcast, BBC GAA social, colm parkinson smaller fish & Off the Ball Gaa podcasts the games don't don't get a great deal of air time from Monday to Friday. Its crying out for a midweek gaa TV show , rounding up the club championships.

There are switching off Hawkeye. They are using an umpire from Cavan instead. It works on angles and percentages. Can predict where the ball would end up if the posts were 100 foot high. It's called Gawkeye.

It's only a once off thing to try out the proposed new rules. Ye'll notice no hurling version. Last Final drew 600 to Carrick on Shannon. Seanfanbocht (Roscommon) - Posts: 1918 - 17/10/2024 14:28:47 2575474 Link 0 |

Ah that was more for curiosity than anything. A distraction from the usual moaning about the United Parishes.

Testing the new rules.....what a laugh. They will only be tested in the white heat of Championship when the county coaches have their say. I loved the Railway Cup, but these games will tell us nothing about the new rules.

Are you serious? It's nothing about the railway cup. It's about seeing the rules in action

I reckon you would be green enough to believe what you see in these games are what you will see when coaches get teams ready for the championship. Cop on. Coaches coach and games are played how coaches want.
