Lads how many county players from your county still tog out for there club in the other code? Doesn't have to be a dual county player simply someone who hurls for say Tipp and plays club football with there local club as well Brianmac78 (Dublin) - Posts: 1168 - 20/04/2016 11:58:02 1847559 Link 0 |
Keith Higgins would be the obvious one here; think Micky Conroy was also turning out for the county hurlers at one point. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 20/04/2016 13:02:45 1847600 Link 0 |

Hard to know anymore. The Cork players hardly turn out with their clubs in their chosen sport. I went along to Nemo Rangers v Ballincollig in a senior football league game last week. It was 9 days after Cork v Kerry (our last intercounty game for some 10 weeks) and only two weeks before the clubs themselves play championship. I expected a great game between the lad two county champions at near full strength. Not one of them played - not even lads on the extended training panel. The senior league here is just played off-loads of games without the lads and then we wait weeks without nothing. Part of me would be happy to see Cork out of all championship (hurling and football) tomorrow morning. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 20/04/2016 19:45:03 1847765 Link 0 |
