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.

Won a county title with Ballygunner, won a county title with Passage and got to a county final with Abbeyside. Blotted his copy with the county under 21s back in 2013 or so though.

He didn't win a County title with Ballygunner.

Apologies he was gone in 2009. Finalist in 2007 but never won one.

And a County intermediate with Youghal, and a second County final with Passage.

His record at club management is superb. Really don't think u21 management is as important as some would suggest. Also his association with Davy Fitz time in Waterford probably doesn't sit well with some people. And also the goal we conceded in 2002 v Clare, a few haven't forgotten or forgiven that either.

In my mind, he's the natural successor to Cahill if he'll take it after what happened last year. Be very interesting to see how Roanmore get on.

For the record, he was u21 boss in 2013 + 2014. 2013 they were unlucky to lose to a Clare side that won their 3rd u21 all Ireland in a row that year, Paudie Prendergast was sent off harshly. In 2014, they were very disappointing v Cork but some of the Senior players on the team were most definitely undercooked on account of the turbulent time they had in Derek McGraths first year in charge.

Gleeson sent off on straight red card after 2 minutes. I didn't see it, must have been bad to be sent off so early. miss the quarter final now

To be fair to Roanmore they are the definition of a hard working team who get the most from their resources. As a poster stated already it would seem that Peter Queally is a good fit for them although whether they can really trouble Ballygunner remains to be seen.

Obviously in the heat of today Mt Sion were at a serious disadvantage having to play almost the entire game without Austin Gleeson. In my view it was a very harsh decision and at least two other Mt Sion players were lucky to stay on albeit one would have been a second yellow.

Similar to Abbeyside last night who despite 14 men put up a good fight when driven on by their county players but I always felt DLS just held too much for them.

Also Gavin Whelan is a far superior commentator to Kieran O Connor. The latter was hopeless again yesterday evening trying to identify players and just using nonsense cliches like " a great ball inside" when someone sends a ball wide twenty yards over the heads of the inside forwards.

PTH2009

Mount Sion will have a serious disadvanthe in the QFs if Aussie is suspended. De La Salle Or Ballygunner would love to hammer them and really add salt to the wounds

Roanmore an outside chance of getting to the final ?

Lismore vs Dungarvan later could be a good game (think Lismore might be ok even if they lose with the H2H over Fourmilewater ?)

Scoring difference decides if Dungarvan win, so unless they beat Lismore by 16 points then those two would be true in that scenario.

I do think Kieran is good on the radio. But TV is a different ball game and he’s out of his comfort zone

I'm not sure. I have a suspicion that he's been at that standard for years on the radio but as we don't have the pictures we can't tell. Although I can't remember the last time I listened to him as I don't listen while at games. There's no excuse for not knowing what colour helmets players wear and he simply doesn't do his homework.

On a much more positive note the standard of hurling in the club games that I've seen is at least on a par with anything in any other county that has been on tv

Feel if Aussie is/was playing next week it would be skin and hair in DLS vs Mount Sion but still could be. Think DLS quality will get them through

Ballygunner should have enough for Fourmilewater

Lismore going well but Abbeyside will be a challenge

It would be typical typical Roanmore to feck up against Passage but never knw.

Think Limerick games I've seen have been of a higher standard. And the Tullaroan v Ballyhale game was super.

No game I've seen have matched those

If you were Liam Cahill would you risk Austin Gleeson in the team given his propensity for red cards. Guy never seems to learn. One of the biggest wastes of talent i've seen in a Waterford jersey.

I would, yes. I wouldn't put him in the backs though, his tackling is far too rash. Even when he was wing back at the start I thought the same. Half forward line needs him as well

Gardner

saw the video of his sending off yesterday. it looks worse than what it is. he went to meet him and your man ducked into the challenge and he connected square on. if it was shoulder to shoulder he would have blown your man into the stand.
ridiculous post above from carter10

Is De Burca back and will he be available for county?
I hear Mikey Kiely hurled well the first day for Abbeyside. How'd he do last weekend? Wonder will Cahill call him up now? We could do with some young talent breaking through under the radar.

We can't win an All Ireland without him so depends what the goal is. Happy to fall short or take the risk on our match winner.

De burca gave a MOTM performance at centre back at the weekend for Clashmore v Modeligo. A dirty enough game he took a bit of punishment himself. Definetly looks ready to step back into the county setup, probably been advantaged by COVID to have him back as it would have been too late had the normal intercounty season gone ahead
