Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Delighted to not have placed that bet now.

Great first half.

Took foot off pedal in second half.

Kickouts need to be worked on.

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

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 ...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

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...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

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...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

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...

Re: Offaly Minor Football and Hurling 2023

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...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

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 ...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

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...

Re: JP McManus donation

Unpopular opinion I know, but instead of each club getting 12,000, a relatively small amount, I’d rather it was kept by the county board to fund capital infrastructure or clear debt on FF or OCP. You’re right, that is a very unpopular opinion 😂😂 What benefit is there to using it to clear debt? The ...
