It's more than a numbers game you need quality is well.. however the fact is only for a recent dip into the transfer market the united parishes wouldn't have won the last 2 county titles despite all their numbers…..

It's definitely not just a numbers game, look at the spread of different winners before the two Hughes brothers and then Rory Beggan came along.. the pair of lads are just a different level in terms of physicality and skill than everyone else in the county - only McManus who's a generational talent and a physical specimen himself really challenged them for about 10 years there but now they're starting to slow down Ballybay managed to pip them. I can see Scotstown falling back into the pack over the next few years when the boys inevitably walk away. Again if it was just numbers and parish size then a few of their near neighbours would be competing too, but there's just too many poorly run clubs around them to challenge them for now.

I believe Monaghan would be one of the few counties able to follow this due to the size. It's a bye law which is generally used for U18s... it's not a general GAA rule. You would advocate for a the Hughes brothers to be brought up to Threemilehouse when they were children, with no attachment there and Kilmore training grounds 3 minutes drive away and them attending school in Urbeshanny in Scotstown. You believe they should have played for Seans? You are that bitter thats what you want.. veterngaa (Monaghan) - Posts: 802 - 14/07/2025 16:52:28 2625679 Link 0 |

Clones v Blayney result is irrelevant anyway. Be as well updafaughs (Monaghan) - Posts: 77 - 15/07/2025 15:20:13 2625867 Link 1 |
Hard to believe for the senior league and intermediate 1/4 finals that no linesmen were on duty… if they had of been the incident in Blaney game wouldn't have happened as no way would clones water boy have been allowed to stand where he was all game….

Why are some clubs awarded an extra point in the minor league? farneygael (Monaghan) - Posts: 318 - 15/07/2025 23:33:28 2625964 Link 0 |
Games won minus county players are awarded 2 points and those games won with county players on board are awarded 3. It's similar to the star system we had in adult leagues a few years ago.
