Re: MAYBE THERE IS HOPE FOR OFFALY HURLING

Seems to be a really good competition. Good for offaly gaa and for all those who do so much work within the county to promote hurling and try to get lads to compete at the highest level. Just a little note of caution. The stronger counties were divided and not allowed to play any under 17s who were ...

Re: Offaly County Board Thread

To be honest I don't think so. Minor hurlers well bet. Had an easy run in the minor avoiding the three best teams. Wexford till the semi , Dublin and KK. Under 21 the same. Kildare and carlow to get to a leinster final potentially. Senior hurlers. Wins vs kerry, and very poor laois and carlow. Well ...

Re: Offaly v Carlow, Leinster round robin Saturday 7th May

I would say the new centre for offaly gaa is definitely going you be held up. Looks like the grass sown didn't take and had to be done again.

Re: Leinster MHC 2016

Despite the big winning margin at the end. Offaly ran wexford close for about 40 minutes. Faded very badly towards the end but overall showed real heart. Completely ran out of steam at the end of the game. Wexford very good. Dublin in final. Too close to call a winner in that.

Re: Offaly v Carlow, Leinster round robin Saturday 7th May

This is why offaly won't get any more funding from croke park, the Irish sports council or leinster council other than what is due to them. they can't simply not be trusted to do the right thing. There should be no more talk about the current Senior manager, senior players as reasons for offaly sen...

Re: Leinster MHC 2016

Offaly playing wexford. Going by results expect a wexford win by 9 points or more. But it's minors and young lads are unpredictable at the best of times. If offaly were to win it be a huge achievement. Offaly have had an easier run in so it's a golden opportunity if they are good enough to seize it.

Re: Offaly v Carlow, Leinster round robin Saturday 7th May

I hope your comment on the two lads pulling up in their club training is true as I find that very hard to believe. I've been to some of the offaly training and the only way you would remain that unfit is if you didn't take part in the sessions. Basically I think your making that up or you are not be...

Re: Offaly v Westmeath, Mullingar, Sunday 1st May

Why won't the best players in the county players for the senior county team? Did the best players play for ollie baker? Did Dooley get all the players out to play? How offaly fair then?. Was offaly decline not predicted by daithi regan 4 years ago? You cannot blame E Kelly solely. Years of underage ...

Re: Offaly v Westmeath, Mullingar, Sunday 1st May

Maybe the problem within offaly G.A A. Is a lack of follow through. The hurling review in the county arms, from 2 years ago , what came of that?

Re: Offaly v Westmeath, Mullingar, Sunday 1st May

Bleak day for offaly. Massive win for Westmeath. Fully expect offaly to beat carlow and then the big one vs kerry.

Don't think anyone can be too shocked about result. I didn't expect it but that was based solely on offaly tradition rather than actual ability.

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

Would not agree about Kelly's stock falling due to defeat to kk. It was expected no matter who was over offaly that it would be a big defeat. Defeat to kerry entirely the players fault. There are certain teams where if you have better players you will win against. Kerry are one of these teams. Also ...

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

If E Kelly is very short sighted he should be looking for those types of players. I m aware your only joking. Championship will be played hopefully in good fast weather. Offaly have achieved what they set out to do which was make top 4 in league. Championship will be very interesting after Kerrys hu...
