Yes apparently they were better all through. They've been training a good while now and several nights a week, not sure how many, so hopefully they get the results that the effort the management and players are putting in deserves.

Yes for sure! Although I dislike that ground tbh. Nice coffee is about all it has going for it!

Think there's a free admission for the game too.

A bit odd that you have 5 Gorey starters and no one from GB who beat them comfortably in the u19 final only a few weeks back and also won the corresponding U17 competition 2 years ago (Also against Gorey). Paull (Wexford) - Posts: 198 - 12/02/2023 16:48:47 2457938 Link 0 |
Maybe some of the better Barntown lads chose hurling u20 instead? Not sure who Keith Rossiter has on his panel

Crown Bar wouldn't be far from the train station.

Yes and they support Wexford GAA and our club with sponsorship. Have rooms too if the pints are good and the craic mighty and you miss your train!!

Selectors of county teams should be judging players as individuals, not by what club comes after their name in the programme

Haha....I'll have 2 weanlings with me under 6. I've gotten better at making the said train ! ! I railed and sailed to London for the game...the day of the Irl Wales game...one of the connecting trains was heading to Cardiff.....Very nearly went to London via Cardiff but then remembered I'm not a young Bull anymore :-) I'll leave a few pound behind the bar in the Crown so... Getting Wexford bus so ye are doing well out of me... Liatroim abú Mugatay (Leitrim) - Posts: 169 - 18/02/2023 21:30:03 2458937 Link 1 |
Of course they should but it still seems a bit strange. So if no GB boys who made themselves available are good enough to start then that is fine by me. But if 5 of a team well beaten in a County Final no matter who the opposition were are on that same County team something just does not stack up. And while today's result will not give us any insight into that anolomy it more depressingly gives us an indication of where we are currently are in the pecking order which is basically very near the bottom.

Hope you and your lads have a great day out down here! Hopefully Wexford win though! I'll be bringing the kids in myself.

I wouldn't read too much into yesterday's result Paull. The same group of lads won well the last day and might well win well the next.

That would be fine if it was a one off but it seems to be the new norm.

And if that was against a Dublin, Meath Kildare etc it would actually nearly be acceptable as we know we are a good bit off them. But surely we should be capable of competing with Wicklow.

Nearly all of Wicklows top GAA players choose to play football at u20. Most of ours play hurling. Hard to be a successful dual county at u20 when you have no dual players at that age group, unless you have higher playing numbers, or a particularly good bunch of lads all around the same age coming up together. A golden generation.

great win, played some lovely football, moving the ball with speed, i said it after the london ,game they now have a system of playing, a game plan, it takes time to perfect and its a long way off still, but that team is going to improve with ever game, 2th game in a row i was sitting beside the subs, there seems to be a great spirit and unity in the camp, it was impressive, sligo the big one now, but first keep the heads and get over waterford, which has been a struggle in past few years, bit unlucky with injuries, hopefullg that wheel will turn Stmunnsriver (Wexford) - Posts: 2969 - 19/02/2023 16:31:38 2459052 Link 0 |
