They clearly struggled in the A?
Was going to ask the same.
I’d imagine they were always going to struggle with Screeney, Mahon, the 3 Kavanaghs and a few more doing the Leaving Cert last year.
Galway’s superior short stick work between the half back and half forward line was evident to see today, coupled with physicality and pace. Offaly’s best passages of play came when releasing the ball into the 3 red helmets (almost impossible to tell apart today) of Kelly, Mitchell and Cahill. Donal ...
Offaly were 2/1 yesterday evening with Paddy Power before teams were named. Once I seen the Dublin team I planned a trip into town this morning for a wager on our lads. Checked again later on and we are now 8/15, no bet there. Supposedly, the actual Dublin panel has a challenge match against Armagh ...
Good competitive game last night. Laois with almost a full panel available and looked very determined to avenge what they viewed as an injustice of Offaly losing the last JMcD group game to cost them a final spot. Game seemed to pass some of the Offaly youngsters by. Seen very little of Cleary, Luke...
Team now named for tomorrow, 8 of the team featured in last year's JMcD final. No David King, Cillian Kiely, Charlie Mitchell, Ross Ravenhill, Oisin Kelly or Brian Duignan, all of whom you'd expect to be there or thereabouts come championship time (if available). Langton brothers gone from panel. Ad...
No word on the team for tomorrow night against our neighbours. I can't imagine the likes of Brecon Kavanagh or Adam Screeney will be thrown in here on a heavy January night in Portlaoise. Let them focus on getting bigger and stronger and hurling with their respective colleges. It's the sort of night...
Offaly Schools will play St Peter's College Wexford in January. Kilkenny CBS play Johnstown in the other quarter-final. In the B championship, Banagher College will play Árdscoil Rís in the quarter-final, while Naas CBS play Wexford CBS. Birr and Heywood appear to have drawn 'byes' to the semi-fina...
Tbh, It is surprising to me how Panda and Tierney would not be considered to be in the best 5 or 6 inside forwards in county. Daingean were convincing winners in inter and will threaten in Senior B and Tierney was by far the best player for them. He is still young enough and more than good enough t...
Dan Ravenhill, Adam Screeney, Declan Cleary & Dan Bourke are in with seniors so far not sure who else. Adrian Cleary and Paddy Clancy have opted out for the year. Also heard that Paul Cleary from Shinrone and Kieran Connors from Clareen are in. Langton brothers no longer part of the panel. Dan ...
This is gas Have read two articles in national newspapers this morning about the makeup of next years limerick hurling and dublin football squads Yet no one here has heard anything about who may or may not be in either offaly panel Lol What’s so funny about that? Can’t be that surprising that the s...
Wondering what kind of team kk had out considering all three county champions are in all ireland finals. OLG would have 3 from last year, will surely go to 5-6 this year. Don’t think thomastown have anyone other than John Donnelly? And same for Tullogher? Although I’d imagine it was a very experime...
Odds to win Allianz League Division 3 2024 Down 11/10 Westmeath 11/4 Clare 8/1 Offaly 9/1 Sligo 10/1 Antrim 14/1 Limerick 20/1 Wicklow 50/1 Surprised by a few of these. Down are a very short price, usually reserved for the relegated teams of the previous year. Clare 8/1 having been relegated last y...
