Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024
On my way to Wexford for the hurling But to say the silence after the last two games was very unusual. I think the common sense people have figured out we have been sold a pig in a poke.. Lowry's cash has polished a turd! of a system I'm dreading tonight. Have a good weekend everyone.👍. hows the th...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024
I suppose this is the challenge these days , getting perspective. We all have views and grand, few words on a computer is easily done. I havn't been to any games yet and didnt see the Wexford game. We will struggle to make big strides in the short term , but the introduction of these successful U2o ...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024
4 point defeat, not the end of the world, certainly as opposed to how it looked at half time. We will hopefully take a lot from the game. Not all our younger players are of the required standard. Ruairi Mc needs to start and NIgel Dunne can come in for last 20 as was said earlier. Aidan Bracken did ...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024
Eh no Kevin, yes its a joke, relax. But they may have had the temerity to wear hats and like the trillick goalie, maybe a snood which may be seen as a disguise and used in other circumstances (both north and south), but strangely enough is seen as an acceptable item of clothing for the moden male or...

Re: Offaly Senior A Hurling Championship 2023
For me there was a horrendous amount of aimless balls hit on top of the OLG half back line and just behind them where Paddy Deegan positioned himself and when that failedd, more were hit! Huge endeavour, but for me if thats what a management is telling the team to do then I give, this could not be t...

Re: Changing of Underage grades and Separation from adult
Farcical decision and in fairness in Offaly I don't see this as a fall off solution. Some of the thought processes at play are beyond belief. Minor often struggles to get the focus it should anyway and with lads u18 the better players will be under pressure as will be likely involved with U20, Leavi...

Re: Offaly Minor Football and Hurling 2023
Congrats to Cloghan on winning the minor and at the same time preventing a clean sweep by Tullamore. A fortunate goal in the second half helped Cloghan alright but they were far the better team on the day. Tullamore were aimless and bar 1-03 burst either side of halftime it was hard to see any struc...

Re: Offaly Senior A Hurling Championship 2023
Also, the ability of James Gorman to contest the high ball in the goalmouth is a useful option for other forwards to feed off. Could Offaly U20s do something similar next year if the channels for the threaded ball to Screeney are blocked? I think James Gorman is overage for the 20’s next year……….

Re: Changing of Underage grades and Separation from adult
I think the system should remain the same. 1. When young lads are 17 and in their 18th year they are ready for most grades of football, right up to Senior. Theyve had gym and S&C for a number of years. 2. many have had 12 years almost of development through underage etc. From my perspective anot...

Re: Offaly U20 footballers 2023
Very good posts and suggestions. Senior A players would be an interesting caveat and would help manage the workloads of lads like john Furlong, Cormac Egan, Screeney and Mitchell at the top end and in the end allow more players in these clubs to get exposure in the U20 competition. But might be a bi...

Re: Offaly U20 footballers 2023
Tullamore 2.13 St Broughans 7pts Tight enough first half with Harry Plunkett haven a really good day at the office on the frees and Jamie Guing kicking the frees for St Broughans only 3 points in it at half time . But then Tullamore killed the game off within 5 mins of the second half and we’re nev...
