Replying To ohwow: "What is a badger dog?" So basically it translates directly from the German word Dachshund (Dach meaning badger and hung meaning dog). BadgerDog (Westmeath) - Posts: 22 - 18/08/2026 12:51:45 2690297 Link

Replying To Klopkid: "Anyone know what's going to happen Barry McNulty ? Will they take him to Oz or more importantly will he go" If he gets the offer he should take it. But it is a steep path to get that one Irish spot per team on their category B rookie list that is permitted. Category B maximum salary per year btw is under €36k so the land of milk and honey doesn't start straight away. The experience alone would be worth it however ohwow (Leitrim) - Posts: 302 - 19/08/2026 14:35:41 2690452 Link

Im fairly sure ballinaglera sent a guy over a few years back . i also heard once while i was in the blue devon dromahair that a player from there club represented geelong in the late 80s Avensis2012 (Leitrim) - Posts: 11 - 19/08/2026 15:36:20 2690469 Link

Definitely not for football purposes anyway AFL or otherwise DontMindMe (Leitrim) - Posts: 19 - 19/08/2026 17:04:15 2690477 Link
Very interesting to see, and kind of surprising that he never attended one of these combine/trial days before. Going by the media reports he may have been one of the older lads at the trials given that other lads who attended were both of Kerry's U20 midfielders and Westmeath's Cristóir Ormsby, a mountain of a man who won the Hogan Cup with Mullingar CBS this year. Would be a huge blow for Leitrim naturally but a wonderful opportunity for Barry were something to come of it. I believe he's going into 4th Year in UCD this Autumn so I'd imagine a two year rookie contract, if he could bag one would be a hugely attractive proposition for a lad coming out of college.

Am hoping to cross the bridge in Rooskey this weekend to see a game in Leitrim SFC. Leitrim Gaels must be favourites again. Is it a toss up between Mohill, Fenagh, Bmore SOH and St Mary's after that ? Heard there was fireworks in Bmore v Mohill last week. Any reports from someone there ? tommyc (Roscommon) - Posts: 37 - 19/08/2026 20:00:51 2690507 Link
The Gaa has to do something about AFL taking our talent for nothing. Like kobe and barry are two of the best wonderkids to ever come from mayo and leitrim and wont be able to see the very best of them. I know barry has been around a few seasons but he would be a huge loss for us who rarely get a superstar like him. LM94 (Leitrim) - Posts: 9 - 19/08/2026 21:14:45 2690516 Link
