Replying To Seanfan: "I'd say he's more like 31?
From memory wasn't 2016 his last year at u21?" Yes 2016 was his last year with the U21s. He's 30 will turn 31 next month.

Replying To Kew: "• The Past Structure: In older iterations of the series, AFL players were paid standard representative match match-fees (often a few thousand dollars per game) plus hefty daily allowances.
Meanwhile, the GAA players were famously looked after with "soft benefits"-premium team kit, first-class travel logistics.
• The 2027 Projected Structure: With average AFL salaries skyrocketing (now averaging over AU$500,000 a year), the AFL is using a massive AU$30,000 to AU$40,000 (€17,000-€25,000) lump sum as an explicit financial incentive to convince the league's top, million-dollar superstars to risk their bodies in an exhibition tournament.
It's hilarious to think the Aussies were getting paid while the Irish lads got some gear and first class travel arrangements" Seeing as one group were professional athletes and the others amateur, I'd say it was fairly expected. The whole tagline of the series was that it was pitting amateur versus professional. Can't have been too much of a shock as a result.

The big crowd behind Larkins has really helped them in the last two games but you don't really generate that same atmosphere in Salthill compared to Athenry so I imagine Loughrea are happy enough to see the game in Pearse Stadium.

U19C final, Carna/Na Piarsaigh v Milltown in Tuam @ 11.00 Saturday. A 2 hour drive from Carna, 15 minutes from Milltown! Some "county" board!

Replying To westmeathgaa11: "I have it on account that LLG have beaten kilkormac already this season and ran crokes pretty close in the run up to the county final" I heard this as well, there's no doubt they have the talent and a strong 15. It'll be far different when they meet the Wexford champions in Mullingar though, and they are in unfamiliar territory now. Having said that they were the best club side in the county this year and beat Raharney twice and also beat Castletown and Clonkill. They won all their games this year in the championship. I think they can give it a good rattle, they will have great support no doubt on the day.

Replying To BigSur: "As per Midlands Radio 3:
Kevin O'Brien has confirmed his backroom for 2027.
Adrian Clancy of St Rynagh's Offaly
Rory Fleming ex Kildare
Kevin O'Brien Tullamore
Eddie Brennan
So everyone from last year in terms of coach / selectors are gone.
No mention of Ollie Baker who was Performance Coach last year.
2 S&C coaches to be added." The lad from Tullamore is the lead S&C coach. He makes players get faster. I done the 7 day trial with him and I wear a saddle now.
