Replying To SouthOfTheGap:  "It is crtainly a lot better supported in the last 10 years or so than previously, but still probably limited to a few small pockets. There wouldnt be a huge crossover of players, especially in the strong football areas. But a lot of good work being done in those areas, and the likes of our manager Mickey McCann couldn't possibly give any more for the cause. But it wouldnt be an easy job.

Any day we are competing against a county like Wicklow, that touches a traditional hurling county we are doing really well. But the next step is huge.

Would Wicklow have players playing club hurling in traditional counties?"
Congrats to Donegal on their victory today. I don't think many saw that coming. I thought Mr O'Connor looked shell shocked at the end. No doubt he will have a plan come the end of the AI season. I am really impressed with the way your hurlers have improved over the last few years. Some really good players and somebody is putting in the effort.

Yeah it was.

It's not in his usual character.
