Replying To Afinestick96: "Hard to believe the Allianz National Leagues kicks off next weekend. Has there been any announcement of games being shown on RTE/TG4 over the coming weeks? Will try to get to as many Wexford games in both codes aswell!" Rugby get big crowds to meaningless games. Through good marketing and often using our facilities.
GAA meanwhile couldn't be bothered. There's lots of games would get big crowds if properly pitched.

Replying To Pope_Benedict: "Astonishing that through all of Corofin's prolific run of success 1991-current, they achieved it without producing a single top class intercounty forward in 35 years. Answers on a postcard, if I've omitted anyone?" It really highlights how well coached they were as a collective. They had a lot of forwards at a good level, capable of scoring heavy on occasion, as well as chipping in regularly.

As regards a teams winng agame with a two pointer taken out from the 21 yard lone sure the referee is very involved in the result" Tom, a gentle reminder if you don't mind. - Your command of the English language is a little below par, you have semi detached wordings when they should be detached, your spelling leaves a lot to be desired that's taking into account my own is not perfect either never the less etc. but to cap it all you say, - - -

County Board need be accountable for the failures at minor level the last 3 years as our schools teams have done so well, last year Moate and Mullingar and now the Marist and possibly Mullingar CBS playing in a leinster final. Last 3 years of minors have been dismal. From talking to the players in school they spoke about how poorly the minors were coached and managed.

Replying To crankyincorofin: "Paddy Egan man of the match in 2 senior county finals already. If he is not developing into a county player there is something seriously wrong." Hopefully he does but corofin have had a good few even part of the great team 15-20 who were unreal at club level but just not quite at intercounty level

Replying To farneygael3: "Is goalkeeping not a concern. Rory retires in the morning or god forbid, the leg suffers an injury, who's up?" Conor Forde, easily the second best keeper in the county. Just doesn't fancy warming the bench all year round for beggan, and who can blame him!

Replying To jm25: "Hopefully he does but corofin have had a good few even part of the great team 15-20 who were unreal at club level but just not quite at intercounty level" Our best player was Daithi Burke who would have been centre back for Galway footballers for a decade if he fancied it.
Outside of that I was always disappointed Dylan Wall didn't make more of an impact with the county and thought he was a massive loss last year. Incredible player.

Answers on a postcard, if I've omitted anyone?" I get what you are trying to say there. Though technically Ian Burke did win an All Star in 2018 which I imagine would satisfy a definition of a top class intercounty forward. Albeit he didn't do a whole pile for Galway outside that one season.

Replying To moros: "Same Rossies..same issues it seems. Where's the bounce element. I hope it's coming soon." It was just worrying how disjointed they were and looked like a team that only went back training last week and were just thrown together for that game. I don't see us getting within 10 points of Kerry tbh I just hope it's not 17/18 points and that's being honest. We are without to many players and enda won't be up to speed either.

Replying To Fionn: "I agree with most of this.
We wont win another Sam in this decade.
On our priorities - for me, with the change of management and in order to try out new players, Leinster would be my target. Forget the league. If we go down we go down. Probably between 3 teams in a relegation battle, with us included.
I think Leinster will be a 2 horse race tbh - us and Meath.
Kildare have lost some big hitters to retirement, 4 excellent players gone. Louth will fall back now imo.
Although it was great to see them finally win Leinster last year, Meath were a better team but blew it on the day.
Winning a Leinster is probably easier to win that staying in Division 1, or getting Promoted from Division 2 in fact.
And if I was RB I would be going all out for that Leinster title also.
Looking at their fixtures, they have the big teams at Home but having these games in Croker and not Navan, they have lost whatever Home advantage they had. Away to Cork and Away to Cavan also.
Next years Division 2 will be easier than this years imo.
Ger has looked at about 150 newbies - I think we will be lucky if 3 see the Championship.
But this has to be a work in progress, and build for the future, and whatever level that brings us to....
For 2026 - Realistic expectations from the off.... anything else is a bonus. ;o)" Yeah it's certainly a different year this year and in a way its sad to know the glory days are over but it's also quite exciting to see what we can produce over the next few years.
Ger has a huge job on his hands to unearth a few new lads but he and us as fans will have to be extremely patient. We still have the nucleus of a decent team there but its another year mileage on the clock and a few definitely the wrong side of 30. It will also be very mentally challenging for the likes of Kilkenny, Con, Howard, Murchan, Byrne, Scully & Paddy Small to have achieved so much success in their careers early on but now being well and truly back in the chasing pack. The opposite of Cluxton's career in many ways.

Wexford Club Hurling 2026 - 1 Like(s)
Now it's time to stop thinkering with the formats and go out and let teams play hurling / football .. Any format change should be given 3 seasons.
12 Senior teams .. if you finish bottom you're not good enough and go into a relegation final.
Was never a fan of the split season - Call a spade a spade, we think we are a dual county when in realty we are a hurling county trying to keep playing football. Having a split season is never going to change that.
