You can see how the stringy team won the Dublin Final yesterday at this link. I don't think it's being shown anywhere else, like TG4, just here via Hill 16 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20leifAd7sQ[url=]link

The two of them, chris had heavily bandaged arm, didn't have a huge influence on the game, their tactics nearly worked, were only a point down in last 5 mins. Barry fitz s introduction changed the game

Now Longford 07, while not a great Slashers myself. I think we should all get behind the Townies in the Leinster.

Why's that bullring? Is it because they don't have any supporters themselves bar two old men and a dog??!!! There'll be no Slashers support at the game because they have none. Garrycastle should easily beat them. Very surprised if they don't.

Cant see past Crokes won the Dublin County easily enough in the final stil have Nolan and Vaughan to add to the starting line up for Dublin Final. Look very strong had 5 or 6 on Dublin u21's that won the All Ireland at least 7 more on senior panel and then adding Brian Kavanagh who has regained form this year to the team they must be the team to beat.

Crokes v Portlaoise in O Moore park will be a tough game to call. Should be a cracker.

that would be tough to call but think Crokes would shade it all these lads have won Leinster and All Ireland titles whether it be u21 club or Senior Leinsters with Dublin so think the greater experience should prove a big factor.

Looks like Portlaois - Crokes could be a cracker alright, anybody know if it'll be shown on TG4 or will they be showing another round of county finals on Sunday? Everybody knows the strenght of the Crokes panel alright but at the same time this is a Portlaois team that has been together for a long while, with a lot of established players in it, and they've been knocking on the door of an All Ireland title for a few years now, they'll certainly feel like they could win it this year.

Against Moorefield they seemed to ride their luck at times, and a lot of their attacking moves invovled Zack Touhy who had a great game for them. Interesting to see how long he's home for, and will he still be around for the next round if they get through to the semi final.

On the other side of the draw, I'll still go for Rhode to reach the final, Niall McNamee is one of the most talented forwards in the game, if he was playing for one of the "bigger" counties he'd be an All Star nomination year after year. Rhode have a good solid team, with strength in every position, and should fancy therir chances of reaching a final against more than likely, the winners of the Portlaois - Crokes match.

Haven't seen anything as of yet to change my opinion of one from those three teams winning Leinster and giving the All Ireland a good rattle.

we'r down to what we all expected. Garrycastle v Crokes, Rhode v Skryne.
Parnell park will mean a win for Crokes. If in cusak park there might have been an upset but i dont think so up in Dublin.
In Navan i just dont know. Rhode have been in semi's before and know what it entails but u think this current rhode team and squad is poorer than in recent years.
Id still imagine Rhode will win if they get the ball quickly into Nialler and Anton. Anton had a fantastic game yesterday, as did Nialler.

Anybody know where the Leinster Final is Fixed for this year? Hope its not Navan,Parnell,Cusak or Tullamore.
