Replying To CarlowJuniorB: "With the way Kilkenny club hurling is going, honouring the past will be a Kilkenny feature as well." Well your county clubs keep trying to get into our competitions. Go figure. I was at an u17 game between Barrow Rangers and an amalgamation of Carlow hurling clubs last year. Ironically the Carlow boys were called the Christy Rings, because they had difficulty rising the ball.
Don't worry about us. Stick to your 1800s language.

I began looking at posts after the Joe Mc final as my mam's from LAOIS. Then I came upon your petty posts. You're a poor advertisement for Carlow.

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.

Well if kildare can do it why can't westmeath, ??kildare have two new clubs completely in the last three years and another making a comeback after a long time.
Cappagh between kilcock and Enfield started at underage now a junior team and improving, never had an adult team before.
Round towers from kildare town now another new adult team in junior also
Rathangan have brought back a hurling team to the area for the first time in over twenty years now in junior this year.

Replying To endgame: "Disappointing for Roscommon and Galway well beaten too. The Connacht Council needs to look at the scheduling of the Connacht minor championship. Too long a gap between our provincial final and the All Ireland quarter final. Think that cost both Connacht teams today. Back to back Connacht minor titles for Roscommon but no repeat of 2006 in 2026. We do seem to struggle against Ulster teams at underage. All our eyes turn now to Clones next Saturday. It'll be some anti climax of a year if we're out of all championships by mid June." Gap between the Connacht final and All-Ireland quarter-final plus the big gap Roscommon had before the Connacht final eventually caught up. The struggle against Ulster teams at underage happens in Ulster venues a lot it appears also.
As for mid June exit well every county is out of the senior championship by June unless you reach All-Ireland semi-final. The nature of the "split season" and rushing the inter county season off as quickly as possible.

Replying To Michaelbeag: "To big of a gap between a condensed season.
Did you actually read that post before posting
We were beaten on the day by the far better side .
You don't think we were playing challenges since the connacht final win.
Derry had 7 days from a good tanking from Tyrone to get ready for us.
We had 4 weeks got to watch them at least twice in Ulster knew everything about them.
We had no excuse yesterday.
Same lads will be telling you the 5 weeks Tyrone had before beating us was the difference that we only had 2.
We were beaten fair and square yesterday." Not sure what you want me to read back on.
Challenge games are pointless they don't come close to the environment of competitive championship matches. Derry was prepped for the All-Ireland series with proper Ulster championship scheduling, they probably learnt more about themselves in that one defeat to Tyrone than they learnt from their previous three wins. They lost by the same margin to Tyrone as Galway did yesterday. For one they added Rocco Devlin to their starting team and he ended up Derrys top scorer yesterday with 1-2.
In the All-Ireland semi-final they will not be playing a rusty Cork as they did Roscommon yesterday. Senior level with Tyrone isn't comparable as they are seasoned and conditioned adult footballers than 15,16,17 year old boys still in school. It is no excuse but factual evidence that the scheduling did Roscommon U17s no favours yesterday.

Replying To southmeathgael: "As good as your championship got in fairness, pity about the final...... Jimmy with his 1 all ireland has to win this year id say or hes under pressure????" If he keeps beating teams by 20 points in all ireland semi finals I'm sure he'll be ok. Imagine getting annoyed about a power rankings list.

Replying To CarlowJuniorB: "Laois's last hurling came in 1949 and football was 2003. It was the 40s before that. Only 2003 can be talked about really, claiming relevance of anything that old is a bit strange. Even stranger to see a cork and kilkenny person here coming to gloat about a laois win. Very very strange." I've a Laois mam, my second county. I was glancing through and the Leix BS which has gone for 100 years caught me.
Laois have won those. Do Tipp, Kilkenny, Cork not count their All Irelands anymore??
As for the Kilkenny poster, Eddie Onion must have annoyed him before.

Laois have 9 Senior Leinster Titles, 6 in football, 3 in hurling, fact. My grandfather was on the 1949 side, my mam's father. That's fact. Carlow have in 1944 football. Go figure.

Fermanagh, Antrim or Offaly away is our fate in the Quarter Finals.
I was at the game today. Very slowly and methodical for the first 45 mins. We took an early 1-1 0-0 lead, then allowed Tipp tale a 0-9 to 1-3 lead after 46 minutes. The player for me who changed the match at first was Eoin Darcy. Then Kevin Quinn. Then the introduction of Mark Kenny. These lads opened up the game. Tipp won a lot of possession around the midfield kickouts, but had very few scores in them. You always had the feeling Wicklow would eventually break them. Got there in the end.

Our 17s played one challenge game since the Connacht final where 30 players got a run out. Prep was mainly training and gym work and a lot of lads focused on their studies.
As I said after the game we looked like a team that had played just 1 competitive game in 2 months, had we performed that way in Connacht we wouldn't have reached the semi-final nevermind winning the Connacht title.
Well done to Derry the best team on the day and fully deserved their win. For us or indeed any team it's about how many of these young players can go on and have successfully careers with their club or if they make it at senior level.

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 Yellaman: "Poor day yesterday. Obviously delighted with the win but not much else. Poor attendance ( whatever happened to the 12,000 sold tickets ?), awful first half for Leitrim, they couldn't seem to get anything right. With the game practically won at half time, our lads lacked intensity in second half, Leitrim upped theirs, pushed us back, and showed what they are capable of. That sub ( Kelly) looks the real deal, any more promising youngsters coming through ?" Watching Kelly play Football was worth the drive up by itself.
