Any thoughts on what the team will be ? Darragh fives def out . Not sure about Kearney. This kind of line up would be controversial:)
Sok
Shane Fives Prunty Connors
Moran Austin Conor Gleeson
Barron Jack P
P Mahoney Maurice Shane B
T Ryan Stephen B Curran
No TBD or Philip

Sok
Shane Fives Prunty Connors
Mahony Tadhg Moran
Barron C Gleeson if fit or else Jack P
Mahony ? Gleeson
Shane Stephen Tommy / Hogan

What I’m expecting anyway.

Centre forward I’m not sure. Kearney might start if he is fit with Maurice coming in off the bench.
Prunty’s physicality probably needed against Conlan.

Few quickies on Walsh Park. What's the best way to get to Walsh park(stand section) , walking from the train Station on match Sunday and is it much of a walking distance? Are there fast food places near the train station, or coffee shop in the station, will be stuck for time to get the train back so don't want to be looking for somewhere in a rush!
TIA

Are the season tickets allocated the stand only or can you go on the terraces if you please?

I’ll gladly swap you if you would prefer the terrace?

DiscoStew · 10-05-2019 08:32AM

Read in local papers that Clare trained in Walsh Park last Saturday? Is this common in intercounty scene for the home team to give the away team such access? I wouldn’t have expected teams would be so accommodating but maybe it is common.

Not unusual at all ..... to get the *lie of the land* Don't think many teams would travel to venues such as Thurles, Gaelic Grounds PUC etc to train as they've been there manys a time. Probable very few played in Walsh Park

The simplest way is to cross the bridge from the station and keep going straight - through three sets of lights (at the bridge, at the Hyper/Super Valu, and at the Marian/Mercy Secondary). At the fourth set of lights (just before Norris's corner/Celtic Squash Club/Blue Jade Chinese), you turn right onto Slievekeale Road. Keep going and you'll come to the stand, If the entrances closer to town are open on the day, you'll pass those, and if not, keep going.

For food/coffee, on the way (from memory) you have the small coffee shop in the station, an African fast-food place on Bridge Street, the Fitzwilton Hotel, Super Valu (café in there), I think a Four-Star pizza, a petrol station with food, then a shop and maybe a chipper at the Marian. Further on there's the aforementioned Chinese. Not sure what will be open on Sunday, since you're sort of skirting the city centre. If you go into town (basically 4-500 metres down the Quay), there are tons of options.

On leaving the train station, cross the bridge into the city. At lights at end of bridge go directly accross the road and continue past the church up bridge Street (a hill). Continue straight on through next traffic lights. With SuperValu on your left, straight on through next lights. From here on any right turn will take you to Walsh park vicinity. About 30 mins or less from station
Coffee shop in staion. You will pass takeaways en route. Deli counter in supermarket that you will pass.
Enjoy Waterford!

I look forward to the good people of Clare gushing about our gentle county as much as our guests from Monaghan did last year!

No start for Shane Fives you are saying? Looked fit in those training camp pictures

I don't understand why they never announce the subs too. Always want to know who's made the matchday squad so you know our options off the bench.

Jjjjjjjbarry · 10-05-2019 08:21PM

McNulty has been very good this year on any occasion he’s played. That Clare full forward line will take no prisoners so they’ll all need to be on their game! I’d have started Maurice and Tommy but can’t argue too much with that team.

Yeah thought myself Fives would start if fit but McNulty started every single league game I believe so why not that surprising. Fives hasn’t played since opening game. Didn’t play club games either.

Would prefer fives. But hardly all that surprising that mcnulty starts. Played almost all the league and was one of the few that had a decent performance in the final. Hard to drop a fella in those circumstances for someone only back from a long injury

He done fine in the league but I'd have a fit Shane Fives in the team all day long. DJ Foran not on the subs list . Was he left off the panel after the league ?

Mastermcgrath · 10-05-2019 08:48PM

McNulty deserves to start. Got his chance in the league and done well. Unlucky for Fives but that’s where you want to be in terms of having a strong panel

BTW, that Clare team looks strong

Gone off panel apparently

DLS2THECORE · 10-05-2019 09:18PM

S Fives had slight setback in training last week, ankle complaint.

He's pictured at the training camp anyway

26 minute walk from Train Station to Walsh Park

Shared route
From Plunkett Station to Waterford GAA via R686 and Morrissons Ave.

26 min (1.8 km)

https://maps.app.goo.gl/F9dNusXHHHbheY8x7

On the way back to the train station the marion chipper is gorgeous. Its by the mercy school on a junction with 5 roads. You will pass it walking to and from walsh park. It is located about half way in your walk

Mulbert · 10-05-2019 11:26PM

Get as near to the half way line as u can because midfield is going to be packed on Sunday.
