Disciplinary Reasons. Did he go for a few pints one evening? He's out for 6 weeks and they tell him to abide by the team's laws & regulations, even though he may play no further part this summer? Seems a bit silly to me. xxB3B0Stunnahxx (USA) - Posts: 94 - 31/05/2017 10:30:27 1992539 Link 4 |
I'm sure Tipperary will pull it together, anyway; the tame is too good not to. If what you say is true, it's time for a clear the air meeting between players and management to ask each other what matters most, petty problems or Tipperary. Get it sorted out for the good of the county and drive on. Midleton (Cork) - Posts: 643 - 31/05/2017 11:23:47 1992566 Link 0 |
Can I say how refreshing it is to have someone come out and not just put up the county colour barriers , very rare on here , Tipp on form are sight to behold and I for one would want to meet them in the qualifiers , they played in a magnificent game recently and there absolutely is a lot more to come , sure they will get the internal stuff sorted,

I'm sure everything will calm down before the qualifiers but leading up to the league final and Cork game there was stories making their way around the county as usual and a lot of people laughed it off including myself but recent weeks some rumors turning out to be true.

You can't hide from the truth Damo ;) Although on another thread posters from that county are in complete denial of hard facts. It's an awful pity that Barrett is off the panel, he is a superb player and the sort of corner back you love watching playing because he is fearless and skillful. It's a massive call by Ryan and I hope for his sake it doesn't backfire on him cos he has given so much to Tipperary hurling over the past 30 years or more. I don't think Mick Ryan would make this decision lightly and I trust him as manager of our team that he is making the right decision. There is one rumour floating around though that is very naughty and seems to have no substance at all. That rumour is not very nice because it is a slur on the good name of the parties involved. One thing for sure is that all is not well in the Tipp camp and that's probably GAA understatement of the year. I only started to get worried about the state of things after Bergin walked off the panel, that is never a good sign. The Galway defeat in isolation wasn't as big a concern cos you can have off days and get a drubbing from a really talented team like Galway but the good news then and still the good news now after the Cork defeat is that neither blow is fatal, we are still in the championship. Granted, we are on the ropes and the losers of the Kilkenny/Wexford game will strike the killer blow in the qualifiers if we don't sort sh&t out over the next four weeks. At the end of the day, we a down one player from our starting 15 because of a disciplinary issue. We have 14 more players that started last year's final and a strong panel to carry this forward.

Not good from Tipp camp. I seem to recall something similar happening in 2011. I was at last year's All-Ireland. I felt watching that we were on the edge of new era. I felt that this team would be the first Tipp team since the the 1960s to win back to back. The talent is still there to do it. I am less certain that they will do it now. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 31/05/2017 14:30:48 1992655 Link 0 |
Jaysus, the only one of these stories I heard was of a bust up between 2 players the week before the Cork game. One of the names was the same but I heard 5 other names for the other player who was seemingly involved!

I tell ya Mick Ryan has a right oul crew to handle all the same!! There's gonna be some personality clashes from now on!! The word on the street is Barrett had a few social ones with another Tipp player but somehow Barrett is paying the price. Something just doesn't add up!!

Very interesting story..The truth won't come out in the papers no doubt, more likely to be spilled in a pub in Thurles or here on HS. It does seem strange that only one player was thrown off the team if two were on the lash. Can only speculate as to why when not in the know.

I hope Tipp sort this out and quickly mind as it's not the sort of vibe you want in a camp.I've always wondered how in the name of God Tipp cannot put a back to back together more often.Ok, it's not something that is easily done in the recent past with Kk at the height of their powers but for a county so steeped in hurling folklore it really is underachieving I feel. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 31/05/2017 18:16:02 1992762 Link 0 |
All rumours outside of Barrett but hey you have your mind made up. Barrett was on last warning that's why he is gone another player is on final warning. I replied with the long version but mods blocked it as usual. I know for a fact the other personal rumour is untrue. Yes there was a bust up before Cork game but was over a wild pull.

"There is one rumour floating around though that is very naughty and seems to have no substance at all. That rumour is not very nice because it is a slur on the good name of the parties involved." I'm working with a guy and he was telling me a rumour that was also very naughty which lead to a bust up between two players in training. I wonder is it the same one?

Oh it must be true so cause everyone is hearing the same rumour that started from a club whatsapp group outside of Tipp. Has to be true. Get a grip.

Wild. Did you actually see the fighting or read the text message etc? Not having a go but then type of rumours flew about Tyrone after they lost a game, 99% been absolutely untrue. Same as every county. If it is true sad to see. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2087 - 31/05/2017 19:50:42 1992797 Link 0 |

Fair play to you. Some of the rumours are disgraceful and totally untrue.

My brother in Australia heard the same rumours!! ballydalane (Kilkenny) - Posts: 1246 - 31/05/2017 20:38:59 1992820 Link 0 |
A bust up in training is pretty normal with most teams. No big deal at all. corkcelt (Cork) - Posts: 4388 - 31/05/2017 20:43:36 1992823 Link 0 |
