Replying To 1shot:  "Surprising to start so many young lads together against the All Ireland champions. Surely we should have learned from the lesson we got last year. Young lads need a bit of experience around to prosper. Sink or Swim more like"
It's the League. Why not start them? Let's see what they're made of. Playing against Kildare or Westmeath won't show us much but this match might. Hon Galway!

Lively match despite the conditions. I'm happy with Galways passing and effort but the wides are killing us. Young guys are doing well. Rabbitte looks like a stud.

Replying To galway19:  "Plenty of youth in for tomorrow night and it looks like they will all get plenty of chances in the league. Usually you'd say that having this many involved in a senior panel is too many but this 2026 u20 panel is well above average. Let them get their feet wet early in senior hurling."
We've had touted 'well above average' u20 panels for a few seasons now. Well above average that is, until the Leinster u20 championship actually starts, and 'expectations' get revised then quite quickly.
