    Cannot remember but did they play in Thurles and was it filled???

    Yes played Kerry there twice. I could not make the second game but I think it was fairly full that day. The previous week it had been stuffed to the rafters. I think htis is a problem all counties have but it is just more pronounced with Dublin because it has so much a bigger population base then all the other counties. By the way how many county grounds have reached capacity so far in the league this year?

    I was in turlas both days...and packed both days too... Although I think there was an increase in numbers from kerry for the second game.
    never the less.

    Good to be back Al. I figured with the new season there would be some Dublin bashing that you could do with a hand to deal with.

    the League had become an more and more important competition in the last 2-3 years.

    Yeah i think so too, only more so in the football than the hurling, as a lot of weaker counties have made big jumps over the past couple of years, where as the hurling seems to be all about 1 county for the foreseeable future.

    I think the playoff system in the championship is why the league has improved. The likes of Limerick and Westmeath had really good runs the first year in the championship, and that carried theough into the league. The same will happen in hte hurling it just needs a couple of years to manifest itself. In the meantime it is a very strong Tipp team, they might be able to keep Kilkenny honest.
