    Just a quick message to all you boggers & culchies out there who practice hurling on a crowded beach......go somewhere else!!

    I mean if you did it with a tennis ball i wouldn't mind so much but a sliotar:rolleyes:....its as hard & heavy as a rock ffs

    Just yesterday i saw a young kid getting a whack on side of the head from a sliotar ...when his mother remonstrated with the boggers they just shrugged their shoulders and carried on.....ASSH&LES!!

    I told a guy one day hitting golfballs on green space at hosing estate, if one of your balls lands near one of these under 6 years olds it is going into the bushes, it helped the situation

    busy green are in front of marley park 4 i lads start throwing a rugby ball,though area full of small children before they start

    some folks need to impose themselves on others, at killiney beach i was puzzled by some east european big lads being very rowdy....coming close to wrestling on top of toddlers...

    at a playground one day....despite visible fear by 3 year old it took very clear language to have the lady remove the dog from area.....

    It would a shame if the national game was taken from the beaches entirely. Fionn and Cuchullain would turn in their dolmens.

    What about a temporary ban instead on puckarounds conducted by Junior B players and we'll see how that goes?

    (Clearly these bucks were Junior B if the youngster was clattered. All higher grades would sent the sliotar tidily towards the chest of the receiving player. Nice and handy like with a bita shpin.)

    Reminds me of that scene from The Van where Bimbo smacks his ball onto another hole.

    "Oi, ya fuckin clown, I'm keepin your ball for that!"

    Classic

    How do you know they were 'boggers'? There are hurling players all over the country and in cities and towns. It would be like calling you a scobie just because you are not from the country.

    So Scobies, we boggers will continue to 'hurl' on the beaches for as long as its our national game, we will continue to play the game of hurling as we have always done.

    Where I am from we train on the beach collectively when the local pitch is unplayable, we train on beach when we need to and we go for a puck around when we want. Off course we should take due care of the people around us.

    I am sorry to hear a child got hurt. That was inconsiderate of the lads playing hurling to play in a crowded area and out of order. You could say the same thing about surfers cutting accross swimming areas or worse again Jet skis.

    One of the problems we have is the townies who allow thier dogs to S***e all over the place. (see I can make sweeping generalisations as well!)

    I'm sick of kids getting in the way of a good puck around.

    The people who play it in the middle of the road piss me off. What is this, Angela's Ashes?

    Don't be surprised if the GAA try to claim the beach for themselves. Can't have funny foriegn carryings-on, on Irish beaches.

    The child was obviously a brit and repressing the poor honest bogshite hurlers.
    He deserved to be hit in the head with a whalloped sliotar in my opinion.
