Ring Cup 2026 (Tier 3) - 1 Like(s)
Will be a fine achievement if we can retain Ring Cup status. Big player turn over once again while lots of good Hurlers in late 20s, early 30s chose not to commit has left us with a mainly young and light team team lacking in bench options. In our most recent game Donegal was more physical than us cutting through our defence all too easy. Meath,Kerry would be more physical than Donegal.

We beat Wicklow in the league but Wicklow were extremely wasteful that day and are unlikely to repeat that when at home to us. We play Derry away first, just one game they won in Division 2 which was against our neighbours Mayo by 10 points.

Didn't intend on opening a can of worms re Bernard Dunne. Was just responding to the other post.
Some say he's a high performance advisor, some say he's a psychologist? Which is it?
Its very vague, but also while I get its independently funded would it not be concerning that he was surplus to requirements in Dublin GAA given their (no disrespect) superior financial backing?
I get the independent funding element and of course, why would they say no. But would it not be better spent on say a top coach or two to oversee a development squad? Like Anthony Daly did in Limerick?

Replying To xxB3B0Stunnahxx:  "If the correct format is implemented - this would be far more exciting concept than a 4x4 Group Phase. 16 teams. All Result on the day - No Draws.
Round 1 - Provincial Finalists at Home v Other 8.
Round 2 - 8 winners play each other. 8 losers play each other.
Round 3 - 4 "2W - 0L" play each other, 8 "1W-1L" play each other", 4 "0W-2L" play each other.
Round 4 - 1 game of 3W v 3W, 3 games 2W v 1L, 3 games 1W v 2L, 1 game 0W-3L

Top 12 qualify for knockout phase.

Think about it. All games of equal status, there on merit. Shouldn't be many hidings handed out."
This is getting ridiculous, you're looking to simplify things and you come up with top 12 quality. Then what, more byes and equation's. Yankee doodling on a spreadsheet.

Replying To Curlew66:  "Congratulations Dun na nGall on an outstanding team performance.
Looking at the match programme it must have been a very proud day for the St Naul club with three players on the team. What level do they compete at in the club championship? Best compliment one could pay Gavin Mulreany is that your regular keeper hasn't been missed atall. He had a very good league campaign between kicking points, saving goals and steady kick outs. He pulled off two great saves on Sunday from O'Connor and Kennedy. Took a risk coming so far from goal to contest a high ball at the end line but his club mate Mogan saved the day clearing G O 'Sullivan goal bound shot off the line.
Open to correction here but I think Caolan McGonagle played underage soccer at International level. His goal may well have been a 'perfectly executed chip' and not just 'going for a point' as most commentators have described it."
He was not going for a chip. And I've no idea how the keeper didn't save it. Shocking attempt.

The Dubs having a hissy fit and not attending a launch event. Looks like Ger Brennan is going full Pillar Cafferey with his management style. You know what they say about never interrupting an enemy when making a mistake!

No one is writing Kerry off? They are still the team to beat especially now with the way they lost on Sunday.
