Replying To S1234: "Should you not be worrying about weather Leitrim can even field a team this year for championship? Instead of making ridiculous statements as per usual..." Is it weather or whether you mean?? Thanks so much for this clarification forthcoming,

I wouldn't be too hard on yourselves lads. Early in the second half you were well in it. Chin gave us a lift and we finished strong but 10 points was very flattering to us.
Keeper was unlucky for the penalty and he made a brilliant save at the end of the first half.
Penalty decision was dodgy but for what it's worth there was a very good chance Kevin Foley was going to bury it.

Replying To Fionn: "They are the 2 games I would have targeted also but things never go that simply...
Yep, I am hearing one name in particular who could be cut. Pity, as I like him as a player and he can play in multiple positions. We will find out this week...." Any hint Fionn? Hope its not BH.

Tough day for Down but the Davids of the hurling need to take on Goliaths and learn from the experience. Waterford in 1A and Kildare in 1B have added spice to the relegation battles. Kerry then are in the promotion mix from D2 but Laois away next will obviously be tough.

Replying To Fionn: "Good to see that Sean McMahon's ludicrous red card v Mayo has been overturned and he is free to play v Monaghan at the weekend. It should never have been a red card in the first place.
Massive game for the Dubs - a must win tbh, if Ger wants to avoid relegation to Div 2.
With Ger experimenting with new players, it is difficult to see us getting many wins in this league campaign.
A nice double header in prospect in HQ though." It was never a sending off.It was a push and O Donoghue made a meal of it.
Its proper oder Sean was cleared.
Ger and the lads should pick up two points the weekend and hopefully kickstart the season.Monaghan are struggling badly and I seen in the bookies Dubs are 1/8 on to win.
Im hoping for at least six points in league and Monaghan should be a cert.
I would be looking then at targetting the Rossies and then pick up another win along the way.I wonder is Ger going to drop a few big names like he hinted?

Replying To TopDrawer: "Did the minor footballers get hammered or something. the socials didn't put the score up as far as I could see - just the Tipperary won." I think that there was a bit of a mix up on this. I think that was next years u17s that played Tipp.

Yes was very low but as long as the ref hears is. No they have an agreement with Roscommon Gaels that they have the shops - when there is a big crowd its not adequate at all

Westmeath Hurling thread - 1 Like(s)
Good to get over the line today. We looked a bit leggy in the end. Bench didn't seem to offer much but at the same time , the subs had to be made. Meath unlucky not to score more goals. Westmeath were very accurate when shooting and that got them over the line. Shane Williams and Shaw got two amazing blocks when goals looked on. They fought hard in defence and although the forwards were very accurate, they don't off much defensively. Surely David Williams should be the in the forwards and Clarke out midfield. Well done to Kevin and Co. 3/4 points , keep building momentum.

Replying To omahant: "OK, that's a 'slight' improvement.
I'd rather something refreshing, more radical - like the league schedule replaced with all 'inter-Prov' ties (M5 v L6), so that in addition to the Prov Championships, we'd have an overall 11-team, 10-match round robin.
Highest 10-match teams in the table (6 or less) and two Prov Champs (no change, finals with top 2s from 4 or 5 group game subset only) advance to the AIC, with byes to table toppers rather than Prov Champs." 30k plus in PuC for a league game. 9k in the Gaelic Grounds Limerick for a league game. Between the split season and eagerness by supporters to see how their counties are progressing ahead of a tough Munster hurling championship - seems little grounds for sweeping changes.

Replying To twbm: "They sure aren't.. full strength team out again Down.." Its kind of the farewell tour for the old band that won the AI together. Hopefully they get at least a Munster this year. Next year there will be a few new faces Id be guessing.

Kildare went a good way to ensuring survival today.
Should beat Down and difficult to see either Antrim or Down beat anyone other than each other.
Went from scoring 2 from play last week to 3 - 15! Great potential to be real force over next while.

Replying To goreyll: "I'm not sure which player you're thinking of but I saw it across the field. I thought some of Fanning's short passes to the full back line were poor. Totally agree it slows down the game and allows the opposition to circle, needs to be worked on in my opinion" Loads of our Senior lads. And underage lads. Not anyone in particular. Even some of our most experienced lads do it.

Indeed, great win for the "little" hurlers. "Little" used as a term of endearment, not one of derision, as a certain few posters on here seem to think.
Now that I have brought the hurlers of Leitrim into the conversation on this thread, I hope that posters like yourself will continue to comment on them in a favorable light.
It is not an easy task to travel overseas away from home to earn two points. Let's see now if the much talked about county footballers are up to a similar task next weekend. Wishing them the best.

Replying To goreyll: "Game in Newbridge is the Leinster championship opener, our league game against Kildare is in Wexford park" Ah that's right. Makes a bit more sense so. I wasn't thinking that far ahead yet.
Right now we've no Idea where anyone will be at come championship.

Replying To goreyll: "One takeaway from me is our passing needs to be more accurate, to the hand. No excuses especially short passes. Most times the player receiving had to control with the hurl first." He doesn't have to control it with his hurl first. Watch back again. Hes just in the habit of doing it because players arent told that that is wrong all the way up. Young lads as their stick work gets better think that its cool to catch the ball that way, when in fact it just slows their game down. Bad coaches not correcting them then doesn't help.
