I don't believe clubs treat any of the cup competitions with any great enthusiasm. Any front runners for any of the grades so far, to early to tell so far? Expect big things this season from Neasden / Brendans and Eire Og personally.... Cilldara2012 (UK) - Posts: 88 - 13/03/2015 13:17:51 1702304 Link 0 |
Don't think that is a fully fair comment. My club certainly have treated the cups like any other competition and have been lucky to win a couple over the past few years which have meant a lot to the club. WideBall1 (UK) - Posts: 98 - 16/03/2015 10:36:18 1703241 Link 0 |
I agree with CillDara, these cups are used by teams as pre-season. 900312ts (Galway) - Posts: 3 - 18/03/2015 14:00:50 1704127 Link 0 |
I would agree that teams use these cup comps are treated as pre-season games. Hopefully this season there will not be as many walkovers as last year.... I am sure we will see on Monday how many of the games went ahead. YourMaIsYourDa (UK) - Posts: 36 - 18/03/2015 17:57:27 1704239 Link 0 |
Now we're in the knockout stages of the Murphy and McCardle Cups are there any further predictions? Who's looking strong this year? mj92 (UK) - Posts: 12 - 20/04/2015 11:10:24 1715675 Link 0 |
I've been surprised this year actually, there haven't been too many walkovers and teams seem to be using the competitions quite effectively. Moindearg have been impressive again this year, shows that there isn't a great gap in standard between Junior and Intermediate grades. Eire Og look strong in Junior although Thomas McCurtains and Anthony's won't be far off the pace come championship, Tir Conaill Juniors have been disappointing considering two/three quite successful years of late although I understand it is examine time and the lads are playing soccer. Senior grade is very difficult to determine at this stage... Cilldara2012 (UK) - Posts: 88 - 20/04/2015 19:08:30 1715837 Link 0 |
