Wondering why the Christy ring is finished so early in the season? Seems like they just want to get it out of the way. I think a proper intermediate all Ireland championship would be very healthy for hurling. With the final played before all hurling semi final would be crucial for success of the competition.

There's a play-off this year between the Christy Ring winner and the team 4th in the qualifier group. That'll be around mid-June. For that reason it needs to be over around then. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7853 - 11/03/2014 10:23:18 1558105 Link 0 |
I was at Christy Ring final and that was only because I happened to be in Dublin at a loose end. Dont claim to be a die hard supporter or anything. Was thinking it was a shame that the teams were finished just as summer was beginning. Also the players probably deserved more of an occasion and bigger attendance.

16 Mar 2014 2pm Kerry v Carlow... Draw legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7853 - 13/03/2014 19:33:54 1559384 Link 0 |
The whole of Carlow hurling (all 6 clubs of it) is waiting for Monday in Croker. The fact that the co team have a meaningless game on Sunday is a pity. If there was something to be gained by winning the Kerry match then things would be different. As things stand and the fact it's Kerry again in the final, it will be Numbers 16-30 on the panel getting a run, and when u take 10/12 MLR guys off that too, it's gonna be a weak side. Kerry this Sunday to win is bet of the weekend. Can't find odds tho :( The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 14/03/2014 18:31:07 1559786 Link 0 |
How many will MLR/Carlow bring to Croke Monday? saulgael (Down) - Posts: 553 - 14/03/2014 20:15:19 1559817 Link 0 |
Most Carlow people I've spoke to are going, every football club in the county is running a bus or 2. Borris, Rathanna & Ballymurphy will be ghost villages. I'd say Carlow will bring 6-7,000 which for a county of 56,000 is massive. The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 14/03/2014 21:15:06 1559842 Link 0 |
Kerry lead 2-8 to 0-8 at half-time of this shadow boxing contest. Carlow will probably raise the level in the 2nd half. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7853 - 16/03/2014 13:51:35 1560170 Link 0 |
Kerry won this shadow boxing contest 3-14 to 0-17. They'll finish top of the league table. April 6th will be the real deal, with the MLR contingent to return. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7853 - 16/03/2014 17:11:43 1560342 Link 0 |
Carlow v Westmeath, Dr Cullen Park legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7853 - 21/03/2014 18:58:28 1563213 Link 0 |
I reckon Westmeath will beat the Carlow reserves, as Wmth seem to be on a roll now and out to get behind Hanley. The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 21/03/2014 19:59:43 1563242 Link 0 |
Meyler will probably have to play some of the MLR lads this weekend "to bed them in" with the rest of the team, I'd say. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 21/03/2014 21:58:07 1563304 Link 0 |

I was totally wrong with my prediction as I honestly expected the reserves to be given a start today. The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 23/03/2014 17:35:41 1563813 Link 0 |
Hugh paddy O Byrne was playing today from MLR. Strange he makes county team and can't get starting place with club !!!! TopFan (Carlow) - Posts: 166 - 23/03/2014 20:35:24 1563913 Link 0 |
True TopFan, with MLR he is usually a sub as a forward. Today he started corner back. Strange that he was only 1 back already. The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 23/03/2014 20:58:35 1563926 Link 0 |
