Waterford GAA thread - mod warning post #1 and #51

IanVW

New thread ladsðŸ˜ŠðŸ˜Š Any update on injuries for this weekends game?

Mod edit: Given how the last thread descended into chaos, we are going to leave that closed and start afresh

Welcome to the Waterford GAA discussion thread.

This is consistently the most active thread don the GAA forum. As a result, discussion can get quite heated. But there are certain things posters must realise are simply not OK to post:

- Personal abuse of anyone be they other posters, players, managers, referees, pundits etc. Any personal abuse will result in an infraction or a ban.

- Rumours about players'/managers'/anyone's personal lives. This should be self explanatory. Apart from being a dickish thing to do, it can lead to legal trouble for Boards.

- Trolling. Again, self explanatory. Trolls will be banned for a long time.

- Accusations of trolling. Report a post if you suspect it to be trolling. Do not call a troll out on thread as this will be considered back seat modding.

- Speculation into the identity of another poster. This is a site-bannable offence.

This list is not exhaustive. Either myself or another mod may add to this as we see fit. Just because a certain behaviour isn't listed, doesn't mean you can't be banned for it. The general Boards.ie rule of Don't be a Dick always applies.

If you feel a post breaks the rules, simply click this underneath the post in question to report the post and a mod will deal with it as they see fit.

So be civil to each other and happy posting.

Given that the thread regularly descending into tit for tat insults between posters, From now on, it won't be a card but a ban straight away for anything like this. The mod warning is clear in the first post but yet people still ignore it.
Also, I'd like to remind people of the ban on discussing players'/managers'/officials' private lives without any substance. You can be getting into libelous territory there. So a zero tolerance policy will be enforced as well.

Are Ballyduff Upper as a club struggling for numbers or are Ballygunner that good. Very good scoring from them and looking like nobody will stop them

Ballyduff are missing Mikey Kearney and a few others. For a small club to miss one would be a massive loss to loose any more they can't cope.

Ballyduff aren't too bad they're fielding 2 teams at adult level, but its a bit like looking at this year's leinster football final and saying ' are laois struggling for numbers or are dublin that good'

Shocking stuff in Walsh Park. The county championship will Be Ballygunner’s to lose going on tonight. Dungarvan scored 5 pts and DLS scored 4pts in the second half which should tell you all you need to know.

PTH2009

Dungarvan 0-13- DLS 1-10 full time

DLS top group B

Its group A Ballgunner have a superior scoring difference and will top the group regardless of the weekends result

All to play for in Group C with all teams on 2 points. Mount Sion vs Lismore and passage vs Fourmilewater the games this weekend

Why would DMG return? He has had a 5 year stint, one league title, (great achievement), lost two munster, one league and one all ireland final. Won 11 championship games from 21 (a large chunk of those wins were in qualifiers against the likes of westmeath, offaly, laois).

All this with an exceptionally good team. DMG gave it his all and deserves credit for the league title and thanks for the effort but I don't feel his tenure has been a hugh success as some people seem to think as to why people would want him back, I don't understand.

The fact we won the league in his second season we definitely should have pushed on and won at least a provincial title.

I forgot to add in the three championship games from this year so that makes 11 wins from 24 championship games

Excellent interview with DMG on offtheball during the week. well worth a listen. what does stick out locally is the standard of journalism we have in Waterford is complete ****e. Gilroy was excellent in the interview with DMG.

what will happen next with us? the next Waterford manager will get 2 to 3 years and then DMG will return. it was quite obvious from the above mentioned interview.

The best laugh I’ve had in ages.

Did you really think it was a good interview? I thought it was strange to be honest. Very little insights into hurling or his views on the game or the team in general. Talking more about what he learned from arsene Wenger and Mauricio Pochettinos books than he did about inter county hurling management. A lot of ranting and raving. The man talks 1000 words a minute. I’d struggle to listen to him if he was my manager or teacher

Where does it say officially that the planning permission has been applied for?

Typical county board again, they should be advertising the fact that they are moving forward but again it is cloak and dagger stuff to find out about anything!

How hard would it be to put a post on their Facebook or Twitter to the plans and a great announcement about the great news on the planning permission etc!

Planning notice up on the town end and also in this weeks news and star

The difference with Gilroy is at least he had been successful as a football manager. Ryan has never won anything. Its 10 years since Wexford footballers got to that AI semi final

I think that’s being a bit unfair to Jason Ryan. He did an exceptional job with an average enough Wexford team. They won the league that year and then went on a run in the Championship. They got to their first Leinster Final in years and although they were well beaten in the final he got them back up again to go out and beat Down the following week and then Armagh. They could have beaten Tyrone in the All Ireland semi if Mattie Forde hadn’t gone off injured and an unlucky bounce of a ball stopped them from getting a goal which would have put them level with 10 mins to go. The heads went down after that but he got them in some shape.

They should have won the 2011 Leinster Final too only a terrible error by their keeper led to an own goal and Dublin got a few scores after that. Ryan did an incredible job with that team and he’s still spoken of very fondly by people in Wexford. Dunno what happened with Kildare but he’s a good man and his achievements shouldn’t be underestimated. For all that Jason is, Waterford senior hurling anything he is not.

The players need to be consulted about who they want for the job cause you knw our CB

Good to see planning permission has gone in for Walsh Park. Any know if we can view the plans anywhere?

Knowing our CB Fergal Hartley or Peter Quelly will get the job

The more I think about, Sean Power, Paul Flynn and one or two good selectors and an excellent fitness coach is the way to go. All well available within the county.

This is the most likely scenario to my mind.

We couldn’t really. If the money isn’t there for a manager how is it going to be there for a top coach? Anthony Cunningham is probably getting as much as any intercounty manager for his role in Dublin.
If we’re going outside and paying up I’d love to see Mattie Kenny. Cuala played a lovely brand of hurling and maybe he would like to kickstart his inter county managerial career now after such success with them.
I don’t see it happening however.

A few years back, he was a popular candidate on here.

There is a worrying lack of candidates within the county if he is one of the front runners. For me the only viable candidate within the county so far is Sean Power.
I like the idea of Paul Flynn aswell. He is very highly rated as a coach and was an absolute genius of a player. But management is a different ball game.
Of the other names mentioned; Hartley made a b*****x of the u21s a few years ago. Forget about him. Ken McGrath would be romantic choice but truthfully the noises coming out his time in charge of Mount Sion were not great. Peter Queally only barely missed out on the job when Derek got it a few years ago. Could be in the mix again. As for this Jason Ryan thing, if that names starts cropping up again it says it all.
Ultimately I believe we will be looking back outside the county for the right man.

Jason Ryan will be cropping up again!
