Replying To Onion_Sack: "Well the good news is from next season it will be a competition proper with a cup presented to the winners. It will consist of the summer internationals where the 6 nations teams head down below. Then it'll be finished with the Autumn internationals where the teams from down under come here. It'll be a type of annual world cup and will be good that teams will play home and away.
If you think the games have been big and getting a lot of attention till now well it's going to bigger and better from next year and I, for one, am really looking forward to it!
Look it up, "The Nations Championship"" It'll be riveting alright.

The only extension we need is an extension to this redicioulously short gaa season. The gaa are cutting off their own own oxygen supply and we are innocent victims of a blinded alley. Please nobody try to make sense of the whole lot because that's impossible when greed is to the forefront. Money from concerts etc directed to grassroots does not have the same power as money from 164,000 fans in croker in September with the possibility of a replay in October..Exposure of our players is what will sustain our game not easy monet from concerts etc. A very prominent intercounty manager recently publicly said that the club season was too long and who could argue with him pointing out the obvious.

Replying To Fighting-Cocks69: "it wouldn't have a major affect on any Roscommon players if Connacht brought this in, considering a Roscommon school has only won the Senior A Post-Primary title twice in the last 56 years. The reason I mentioned the Ulster model is that it shows the competition can realistically be run over a single weekend. If some clubs don't want to take part, they can simply opt out. But who wouldn't want the best clubs in each county competing against each other. Most school teams have been training since early September, juggling both club and school" The Ulster minor championship begins at the end of November and is played on a knockout basis with the final traditionally played on New Year's Day. It's not ran off on a weekend. Connacht also have a minor provincial competition. November & December are the main months for schools senior championship so if Mullingar shamrocks were playing in a Leinster competition it would directly conflict with CBS. Throw in Plunketts & CBS hurlers and it would be a lot with some players then going straight into county minor or U20.

Replying To BarneyGrant: "Ó Ceallacháin would have picked him already. I doubt you will see current management pick any country lads. Same as footballers. It is good for esprit de corp." And they are right.
Good club hurler, but missing the pace for inter county hurling.
He was on Kielys extended panel in 2020 and then was let go.

Replying To dgcrusader: "Would rather him than some of the other forward options we've had off the bench over the last couple of years" Bit harsh on McBrearty Eddie.He is a good bit younger than Murphy and it would be sad if he is going because he thinks he is not going to get game time. Wasn't he instrumental in getting McGuinness back even though he wasn't a starter as far back as the 2014 All Ireland run.

Replying To supersub15: "Storm in a tea cup !.
There's no rights or wrongs in whatever spelling you use, it's all about preferences of the day." It shows a lack of effort on your part. In fairness, the bar you set for yourself is fairly low.

Replying To supersub15: "Storm in a tea cup !.
There's no rights or wrongs in whatever spelling you use, it's all about preferences of the day." No storm at all. Just pointing out that we see the incorrect spelling of the name a lot. I agree with the other posters that it's an easy one to get wrong, particularly for non-Gaeilge speakers.
If I was to keep referring to Paul O'Connell as Plau O'Connell, I'd definitely be spelling his name wrong. So there is a right way and a wrong way of spelling a name.
