GAA aren't really interested in promoting hurling they already have the other product i.e football. They have no vested interest in promoting hurling. Not like over here where Aussie rules is putting development resources into traditional rugby league / rugby union areas especially Queensland. Maybe the GAA should be split in two lol crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 17/02/2016 11:58:50 1826051 Link 0 |

I agree completely Crikey. Hurling is treated like the poor relation by the GAA. If I had my way there would be a separate sporting organisation for hurling. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 17/02/2016 19:54:38 1826215 Link 0 |
GAA hasn't made any attempt to grow the game of Hurling since 1884. No push to promote the game. Can't think of many sports that haven't made any attempt to grow. Think of all the basketball or rugby clubs that started up in the meantime. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 18/02/2016 09:20:44 1826244 Link 0 |
Crikey the can't even grow the game in Ireland :) That should be the easiest place to grow hurling. I hate all those labels bandied about like 'hurling snob', any hurling fans I know would like to see the game grow. With the exception of Clare, Limerick and Galway there seems to be apathy to hurling along the West coast and it's the eastern parts of those counties where hurling is strongest. West Clare, West Limerick and West Galway seem to be more football focused. The wild Atlantic way says no to hurling :) Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 18/02/2016 11:17:48 1826287 Link 0 |

Derry and Down shouldn't be forgotten either. Down won the Ring not too long ago. Derry were in the Ring final last year. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7873 - 18/02/2016 18:57:36 1826481 Link 0 |
Usually in the league I find that the team with the most to lose usually wins unless there is a massive gulf in class. With that in mind. hurlinspuds (Cork) - Posts: 1494 - 19/02/2016 10:50:30 1826557 Link 0 |

Kerry "going out to win". It's a nice dream but the reality will be somewhat different. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7873 - 20/02/2016 14:52:45 1826788 Link 0 |

Sounded like it was over by half-time & Limerick took the foot off the gas in the second half??? Still though, Kerry are learning valuable lessons. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 21/02/2016 16:27:04 1826980 Link 0 |
