The hurling has been cat - plenty of constipated hurling. I sometimes wonder if the league is too competitive as teams can be flat come Championship. The under 21 Championship has been far better with half the games. Ban (Westmeath) - Posts: 1415 - 04/08/2015 09:40:43 1763506 Link 0 |
I am in two minds now. Yeah lots of one sided games this year but that has always been the case. On the other hand you have Dublin. Kerry, Donegal, Mayo and possibly Monaghan all with a chance of winning Sam...have we ever had so many teams in with a shout? It has been this way for a few years now when you add in Cork and Tyrone. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11236 - 04/08/2015 09:49:57 1763510 Link 0 |
Personally I think the hurling has been woeful in comparison to years gone by.. Munster was pretty poor all round and that is usually the pinnacle of it for me bar the AI final. AthCliath87 (Dublin) - Posts: 345 - 04/08/2015 09:57:54 1763519 Link 0 |
The weekend may have been a reminder of how the gaps between the elite and the rest is getting greater but the levels of excellence the top players are reaching is being too easily lost in the communal and now annual decrying about structures, standards and the disadvantaged. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 04/08/2015 17:41:22 1763916 Link 0 |

where else would the main competition of the season be totally knockout and the secondary competition have more games ie the league, league championships the only way to go way more structure to a champions league style approach too and way more time for club games hurlorhurley (Wexford) - Posts: 1660 - 05/08/2015 09:22:45 1764102 Link 0 |
The championship is alive and well. We are going to see the best 6 Football teams in the country play it out over the next two months to see who is the best. Come the end of September we could be saying that it has been one of the best championship years ever. So_it_is (Fermanagh) - Posts: 40 - 05/08/2015 09:51:05 1764118 Link 0 |
