Club championships 2021/2022

Bloody hell. Something wrong with a competition that has two teams with that much of a gap between them playing each other.

I really like the look of Mountbellew Moylough, I think they should be more than good enough to win Connacht. I can’t see any team being good enoug Kilmacud in Leinster. Ulster as always is the most open. The 3 standout teams up there for me are Kilcoo (2020 All Ireland finalists), Glen (who have a lot of their team made up of the 2011 - 2014, 4 in a row winning Ulster minor club championship teams who are now aged between 24 and 28) and Dromore (who came through the highly competitive, high quality Tyrone championship). Kilcoo are my pick. In Munster I think the Kerry winners should be good enough. Stacks and Rahillys is a tough one to call but Rahillys are my pick. Finbarrs should get over the line in Cork and will put up a challenge.

My prediction for the 4 semi finalist is Mountbellew Moylough, Kilmacud Crokes, Kilcoo and Kerins O’Rahillys.

All Ireland finals are in early February.

Its not on RTE and TG4, I think Beo Sport have streamed Galway games this year.

Didn't watch the games today but I wish the indiscipline would stop its a blight on the games either players mentors or supporters getting involved with each other or officials . Its the main gripe I have with our games and gives the knockers a nice handy reason to knock the association .

Well said Guru. The players that physically jostled the ref can very easily be identified from video. GAA needs to send out a strong signal now.

The decision not to give a mark to Mountbellew was a poor one but the ref was unsighted and it was a mistake ... nothing more than that.

Plenty of mistakes made by Mountbellew players throughout the match but it's just too easy for them to point to a ref's mistake instead.

Horrendous red card call against Noel McGrath

Definitely not a red. At the very most, a yellow, but even then it'd be harsh imo. There was stuff going on with mcgrath and the ballygunnar number 9 before that that the linesman didn't see. He must have seen something in the incident that mcgrath was put off for. What that was is anyone's guess

Loughmore shot themselves in the foot. They should know if you play on the edge like that someday you're going to get a poor referee flashing cards.

I presume Ballygunner Killmallock will be in Thurles. Looks fairly open in both codes this year, Ballyhale haven't convinced last couple of weeks and same with Ballygunner today.

Didn't like some of the play acting from Ballygunner but I think its a problem across the board.

This year, I think, it's St Thomas's vs the ulster champions and munster vs leinster.

Ballyhale have been struggling all year really and only hurling in fits and starts.. however I would say the further they go the harder to beat they will be..if I was ballygunner I'd rather try catch them in a semi than meet them in a final..

Very true.. ballyhale also have to get through Leinster final..I was only talking about if and when they met which might suit ballygunner better
