Replying To Onion Breath: "We shot 22 wides. Cant blame the game plan for that. Score half thrm and we win that." Delighted Laois won. If me aunt had balls argument re. wides. Laois the better team all round.
No one calls Laois 'Leix' accept begrudging people on this forum. Go eat your scallions.
Castlecomer man.

Replying To Marooned: "Thought the minors played pretty well to be honest. I've seen nearly all their games in Connacht and that might have been their best performance. 7 point defeat wasn't really a fair reflection of a game that was close throughout. Galway turned down a fair few handy point chances late on as they were hunting for a goal. Tyrone then got a breakaway goal right at the end to make it look worse. Big problems winning kick out though. especially against the breeze in the second half." Agree with this more than WanPintWin post.

Replying To CARPS: "Would you prefer we used 'Queen's County?'" This forum has a lovely Carlow Sugar Factory in the 1940s vibe. It's lovely the way the past is honoured because I haven't seen some of these pre 1922 terms in use by older people since the 70s.

Laois by far the better team. 9/10 Laois beat Carlow, in either code. They just have that edge over Carlow.

Replying To ColmFlaherty: "It was just a question, not an unreasonable one either considering he was slightly injury prone, then to factor the new lads in the panel." Would be good to add Kevin Cooney and Liam Collins to the forward options next year. One disturbing consideration today is contemplating how we'll replace Daithi, Cathal and Whelan before this 'transition' is likely completed in the coming seasons. Three huge performances from those 'old boys' today.

End of the road for our U17 footballers. 6 point loss the two goals conceded proved telling and we should have defended much better. Shooting efficiency on frees and from play 2nd half hurt us and we very much looked like a team that had played just 1 competitive game in 2 months.
Thanks to all the players and management for the effort put in, disappointing tonight but 2026 will be looked back on as a Connacht winning year.

Real setback for Dublin after beating Galway in Salthill & knocking the Cats out of Championship.
Up against Clare next, should be a good game.

The shrewd Leitrim football men are obviously dissecting the days performance before issuing a conclusion.
Their spokesmen will somehow persuade us that we were victorious.
Maybe we've reached the end of this nonsense.

Replying To M Lyster: "Seeded in QF draw
Antrim
Laois
Offaly
Fermanagh
Unseeded
Sligo
Wexford
Wicklow
Down
All the Munster teams out already, a joke of a provincial championship with Kerry & Cork up against 4 of the worst teams in Ireland.
The GAA's procedures for the QF draw say repeat pairings will be avoided:
Forbidden pairings
Offaly v Down
Laois v Wicklow
Fermanagh v Wexford
I'm still not sure who gets home advantage in the QF, giving it to the unbeaten seeds would be an appropriate reward. Neutral venues would probably be a bad idea for attendances.
Fermanagh have had to win 3 games to get to this stage. What was the point of bringing New York over for a hammering?
Down huge favourites to lift a 2nd title, they shouldn't even be in it really. Draw on Monday morning probably." Limerick got to the final of TC last season. The two teams that beat limerick( both had home advantage) are still in the competition.
Clare were in the Sam Maguire competition last season. What division are Antrim in?

Replying To Tadhg2020: "If you watched that McDonagh final you would know that neither laois or Carlow are good enough for the leinster championship. Laois get the chance to prove me wrong and congratulations to them. McCarthy hurling is about quality not quantity imo." Not playing the top teams doesn't exactly help either. An 8 team Leinster is a fair shout. Offaly, Laois, Kildare, Carlow and Westmeath need to lobby better for a proper more inclusive Leinster Championship.

Replying To legendzxix: "...
Reading the opinions of the likes of a Carlow expert of Tom Mullally's knowledge...
Leinster could have 2 tiered groups of 4:
Top 4 in Group A - Leinster semi finalists from the previous year after year 1. Top 2 direct to semi finals with home advantage. 3rd at home v 2nd from Group B in quarter final and 1st from Group B at home v 4th from Group A in quarter final. 4th in Group B relegated unless spared by a non Leinster eligible county winning the Joe Mac." If you watched that McDonagh final you would know that neither laois or Carlow are good enough for the leinster championship. Laois get the chance to prove me wrong and congratulations to them. McCarthy hurling is about quality not quantity imo.

Congrats to all involved today. A performance very much deserving of a Leinster title. We needed that one and it showed. Some outstanding performances all over the pitch. Obviously Tom Monaghan was brilliant. I thought Conor Whelan was exceptional, even without the scores he got. The amount of ball he won back and dirty ball he managed to get into his hand was crucial.
Daithí was a rock and the defence in general performed well. Almost every high ball was either won or broken to a spare man. The work-rate was there throughout, and some of the heads-up hurling was a joy to watch.
Fair play lads. It's a right shot in the arm and we have a semi-final to look forward to now.

Replying To Tiger1: "Have to say very poor match leinster hurling in big trouble." just stop with that statement....maybe galway are actually a very good team playing to their potential at last with the talent and the age profile they obviousily got. i dont think dublin are as bad as the scoreline suggests either.

Replying To Bimb: "I was heavily critisied here for saying the Carlow team was going backwards in terms of game plan and making the most of our talent. Would anyone think I had a point after today's game?" You're hardly claiming justification on one poor performance, hardly?? Completely under performed. Forget tactics, convert some of these misses, easy misses, could Have been a 10pt win. They're great men, gave us another great occasion. Can only see them stick together, hurling is there lives, carlow hurling
as it has to be. Some of that shooting today was junior B standard, they know that!. Our boys are Leinster senior standard when on their A game, great men, proud carlow men, and proud hurling men and they will be back, Chris, James D, Mouse, Ciaran W, Dion W, Mac, . Add in young talented men like Jack T, Evan K, F Fitz, Donagh M, Conor K, all top men and top players mixing it at highest level and we'll rise again next year… Leix beat us 2/7 last attempts, all big games. They're also too good to loose all of them to be fair.
