Didnt know the soft ground affected blanket defences and long ball merchants

Long ball merchants? Have you any notion at all about this sport? A well placed long ball is one of the supreme skills of the game, a skill Kerry have always mastered.

Go back to your O'Byrne Cup like a good man, till be the only silverware ye win this year!

It's always been the same as long as I can remember, in any year you could pick the semi finals/final with ease.

The point is. how can anyone argue with you in January.
Right Moylagh, name your 4 semi-finalists now. and let's revisit this in August.
better still after you have named your semi-finalists let's all go to bookies and put money on those 4 being the semi-finalists.

The hermit I totally agree , the long ball is a fair skill to have in your arsenal and it has served us well thank god.

Your probably right, we wont be ble to cope with the very skillfull ,kick it as high and long as you can ball into Donaghy. Not nice to watch but effective all the same.

One of the first things I was told at under 8's is the ball moves faster than any man.... every back hates the fast quick ball in hopping in front..... a backs nightmare also

So we're basically at the half way stage of the inter county season are we all still happy with our teams or are you's worried by lack of form from your side?

All looking good in the Hills with everyone fit & raring to go.

Mark McHugh's form is the only slight blip on the horizon but apart from that I can't see anything stopping us lifting Sam.

Half way point in the interco season is the august bank holiday weekend! Our seasoned campaigners only started kicking ball last week - O'Mahony, Cooper, O'Donoghue, D. Walsh.
All the messing up to now counts for nothing - as was proved last year!

Impossible to say at the moment, we wont know until we reach Leinster final what difference has been made, we could really be the surprise of the year, but then maybe we have not improved one bit .
On the positive McGill has been a huge huge find, Kevin Reilly is back so is Gillespie and Wallace , negative has to be micky Newman who hasn't recaptured his form after injury, but that i think will change come championship, the fact that we now have 3 possible top midfielders is also a huge positive, but frees not been converted and i mean very easy ones is a huge worry. Need to convert the chances we are creating and then yes we could beat anyone on the day, but could we do it 2 days running??? Ahh the old chestnut, consistency!!!!!! Our downfall so many times.
All in all we wont know until we play Dublin and im not been cocky in saying that, it would be massive shock if both didn't play in final.
Until then its a waiting game.

I'm tipping Cavan to beat Monaghan in the Ulster QF this year and have a hotly contested SF with Fermanagh for the right to play Derry or Donegal in the Ulster final.
