Have just seen this article on the main page, not sure how useful these comments from the Antrim Chairman are. Marlon_JD (Tipperary) - Posts: 1823 - 21/08/2015 20:14:17 1774093 Link 0 |

Playing Wexford in 40 mins in the u21 semi. 13 players at the last training session. While there are loadsa problems you would think that young lads would be proud, honoured to pull on the county jersey. Seems not. Only the clubs and passionate hurling fans will bring the changes that are needed. There are many of us. Glensboy (Antrim) - Posts: 290 - 22/08/2015 15:26:11 1774245 Link 0 |
While Antrim are losing & no doubt will be well beaten in the end, they are showing today that they can hurl with passion & skill. That's an exceptional Wexford team who hammered Kilkenny in the Leinster Final. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 22/08/2015 17:00:25 1774260 Link 0 |
Imagine if we had our full team out here today.... Jackson, two Johnstons, Bradley etc srb (Antrim) - Posts: 344 - 22/08/2015 17:07:44 1774262 Link 0 |
It looks like they still gave Wexford a decent enough game so they obviously have some good players. Two years ago when they beat Wexford, their preparations were just as bad from what I recall. The apathy of the players is hard to understand when they have so much potential. Gaillimh_Abu (Galway) - Posts: 996 - 22/08/2015 17:30:39 1774268 Link 0 |
What Saffron Don said. We are an utter basket case at the minute. srb (Antrim) - Posts: 344 - 22/08/2015 17:39:23 1774270 Link 0 |
SRB - 2 of the players you mention in your post decided not to travel today. They have form for not turning up. Shouldn't be let anywhere near a county team again. See my earlier post. Glensboy (Antrim) - Posts: 290 - 22/08/2015 18:07:09 1774289 Link 0 |

Very difficult for ulster hurling counties. The best Im hoping for in the next decade or so is that a few Ulster clubs come through and claim an all Ireland club title like Loughgiel a few years back. joncarter (Galway) - Posts: 2692 - 22/08/2015 21:12:27 1774373 Link 0 |

Antrim are comparable in hurling terms to the likes of Westmeath where maybe 3 clubs (who would be strong in any county) rule the roost. Very hard to drive forward with a mediocre county setup as a result. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 27/08/2015 14:27:52 1777108 Link 0 |
