Replying To kerryforsam26: "Kerry looking good. David Clifford and Seanie Shea back for McGrath Cup. Good to get a bit of target pratice with cork and roscommon coming up." A new alias for the new year. Looking forward to hearing about all your bets after the fact again. Your record of jinxing teams is still going strong I see. Some feat to jinx this Kerry team.

Replying To Tirchonaill1: "Nobody ever asks what right does Denmark have to Greenland?
it's funny 'Europe' can't defend itself without help from America and NATO is nothing without the USA's military power, yet some European leaders think they can defend Greenland against America?
The way the Arctic is opening up for oil exploration etc and who knows what else lies under the Greenland ice, I'm sure the Americans and others know what mineral wealth is there an if they don't develop it the Chinese or Russians will likely be eyeing it up.
Never a dull day with President Trump anyway, I'd say he has some laugh at the likes of Starmer. He plays them like a fiddle." What right does anyone have to anything? It belongs to Denmark end of story. I'd say there's some lads here who would be delighted to see Ireland become the 51st state.

Replying To Square_B: "The way it's going, it won't be long before Trump tells us he needs Shannon Airport for operational purposes. And who would stop him if he really wanted it. It's not as a far fetched thought as people think. Bizzare and unprecedented times." Funny that. Myself and a few friends were discussing that very scenario yesterday. It's not beyond the realms of possibility. This guy has no filters

If you are picking a win v Dublin as a barometer that things were OK in the u20s when they ultimately lost to Laois, or a minor team completely humiliated by Kilkenny by 20+ points as not being a bad team then we have completely hit peak acceptance of average.
My gf is from Tipp and they never accepted anything less than winning at any level as being good enough. They would be furious over not coming out of Munster. Losing anything is not good enough. But that's why they have 20+ All-Ireland and we have 6 and one in just under 60 years.

i havent posted much in this forum lately . it was great to see silverware return to the county on friday evening , firstly kudos to kildare on the great venue st conleths has become . a credit to all concerned . as for the game itself i saw a steel in westmeath i havent seen in a long time . 13 minutes into the 2nd half or there abouts kildare got a sloppy goal and i thought we were beaten . its then players stood up to the mark , the display in the last half of the 2nd half was immense . charlie drumm tadgh baker ronan wallace harry niall who i think will play a big role for us this year mattie whittaker and luke took the game to kildare who had no answer, but i have to say and most observers at the game said it that our captain ronan wallace led from the front from the very start. mark mchugh and his team has the players believing in themselves . i know its only o byrne cup time but there is nothing like winning . so well done to all and roll on sligo in cusack on sunday next

Question to the floor.
Is there a concerned similarity between Mr. T's take on Greenland as of now, and Mr. P's take on the Eukrain of 2 years ago ish. Or is it just coincidental. ?

Replying To Lockjaw: "Things are deteriorating on a daily basis.
Don't think there has ever been a more important midterm election in my lifetime. If the Democrats do make substantial gains, will the sitting President respect the results? If he rides roughshod over them what will happen then?" Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.....

Replying To dave1988: "Thats where I think it's completely wrong. I think we should be aiming for the next 3 years to stay in division 1 and get our young lads coming up playing at that standard for a few years and then look at championship. What are we going to achieve by being relegated and maybe winning a connacht title every 5 years and that's it. Look at Monaghan they put everything into league for years and got knocked out in championship by longford and other teams them years but eventually they got to the next level and stood toe to toe with the big teams in championship after staying in division one for a sustained amount of time. If we get relegated this year what's going to change. It's been the same for years up and down and still no where near the top teams so I'd be all on for putting absolutely everything into the league for a few years and get to a level where then we are taken seriously and can challenge top teams" You're completely but whether that's possible year to year it's another thing. For us we need absolutely everyone available to us to achieve this. However year to year we normally lose two to three regular and one of our top players down to travelling, work commitments etc. a county of our size just can't sustain this
When trying to maintain division 1 status.

Replying To Claretandblue: "Rightly so? How's that? Got a deserved red card, struck with Hurley, should be suspended tomorrow." Don't be like that! Even if it was deserved, good to see the lad not miss the final. Good days these for Galway hurling: Walsh Cup and a fair shot at another AI club title tomorrow!
May the best team win!

Replying To Ros2013: "Supporters would want to calm down regarding the fbd. It's a few challenge matches. There will be a complete change of pace going into the league. Whether it's enough to stay up is debatable considering our size losing the Brigids lads. It's all about Connacht this year" Thats where I think it's completely wrong. I think we should be aiming for the next 3 years to stay in division 1 and get our young lads coming up playing at that standard for a few years and then look at championship. What are we going to achieve by being relegated and maybe winning a connacht title every 5 years and that's it.

Replying To galway19: "Any you can safely mark them down for next 10 years easily with the minors they have coming. They have an under 15 team that won the national feile as well. They could put up a ridiculous amount of Waterford titles in a row but really the standard down there is so poor." They have huge playing numbers. Only some of the Dublin superclubs would match them that way.
