    Only theoretical at this stage but does anyone know for sure what would happen if James Stephens were to win the Junior Championship this year?

    Something similar happened a few years ago when O'Loughlins second team won the Junior. They got promoted to Intermediate but Conahy represented Kilkenny in the Leinster Championship.

    As James Stephens have just been relegated from Senior, presumably they couldn't have two Intermediate teams in 2025. Would the beaten Junior finalists be promoted or would the relegated Conahy get a reprieve?

    c’mon the Boro



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 142 ✭✭neverbet


    Mullinavat worthy winners of first semi. Tpm Aylward, Padraig Dempsey and all six backs very good. Oisin Knox a real handful in the forwards. Conor Fogarty heroic as always for Comer. Jack Buggy excellent in a limited forward line.

    Comer are very poor. Mullinavat much the better team. As pointed out here on this previously, management need a serious look at the panel, most intercounty panellists have not been sticking out for club teams

    You're a gas man village 😂 Conor Fogerty was very good for Comer today it's the lack of forwards thats our problem, how did your own club get on this weekend?? Maybe you should go back to calling for Cody's head and get over Conor. 👍

    There is our answer to Boro players good enough for Kilkenny. Joe Sheehan was probably there best player

    I thought yesterday would shut you up for a while, but you’re obviously a f……g eejit.

    What a superb win for OLG against Dicksboro, down to 13 men and finished the game in great style with unreal composure shown. The way they popped the ball around the middle before releasing their players for a shot was the key to their victory, therefore by-passing the 2 spare Boro defenders. Real leaders stood out- Huw Lawlor, Paddy Deegan, Jordan Molloy, David Fogarty, Fionn Mackessy and Conor Heary, when they needed them most. Augurs well for them. Dicksboro will have huge regrets after this one I'm afraid

    Jordan Malloy was absolutely sensational. What a prospect on the Kilkenny team next year.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭blackcard


    Dicksboro should be kicking themselves for their braindead approach playing against 13 men, working the ball to midfield and then lumping it forward. Jordan Molloy was magnificent late on, Huw Lawlor was excellent, Mackessy was good. Mikey Butler red card was correct, he hasn't had a great year. Didn't see Bergin red card incident but I imagine it will be appealed.

    Over last 2 weekends at least 3 big management reputations have taken a huge hit.1 deserved the reputation but other 2 now look like spoofers and all three would have huge questions to answer about tactics and set ups pre and during games

    Incredible from OLG. Boro 2 years in a row now had quarter finals at their mercy and couldn't see them out. Hard to figure for them. Hard to see past OLG for the title now after escaping today.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 113 ✭✭Rebelside


    was the Bergin who was sent off the KK minor manager this year?

    Few big momentum swings are in the last 10. Kevin Moore shot that dropped short, he had plenty options left and right and took the wrong option. Bill Sheehan played a ball under the big stand with no advantage to Boro players and he had options everywhere. Harry Shine shot on his left 30 yards out under little pressure and wide.

    Playing 50/50 balls between Kelleher and Lawlor was brain dead

    You would definitely know one when you see one

    Are we all back in primary school lads, give it a rest.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Topcat32


    Its been back in primary school for the entire year, the disgraceful commentary on the Kilkenny minors and a young player from Castlecomer a few weeks ago, the glee over Brian Cody being judged to fail yesterday, a negative attitude and vibe around Kilkenny hurling this year, I'm honestly very happy to give it a rest



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 50 ✭✭lob it in


    Congrats to Mullinavat in the first game they fully deserved their win,an entertaining game that Mullinavat never looked like losing Comer gave it their all as they always do but are limited up front.

    In the second game I thought the first half was poor and very flat but the second half was incident packed,Mikey Butlers red card was fully deserved a shocker of a "tackle" I had a good view of the Bergin one it was never a red card ,Bergin went to make a run for the puckout the boro player grabbed his jersey Bergin swung back it was a yellow at best the Boro player made an absolute meal out of it and in my opinion got Bergin sent off.I thought Jordan Molloy was outstanding and was man of the match.

    It's gone to Na Na Nany Na Na my dcik is bigger than your dcik shite for the last year, hurling supporters me hole.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Topcat32


    Absolutely, but the worst for me is when someone has a go at a young player from their own club who didn't play well in a county final on a forum like this



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,540 ✭✭✭Comerman


    The way I look at the whole thing is EVERY panel member from county senior down to U9c or whatever play the game to the best of their abilities and the same for management etc. and I'm not in any position to criticise any of them, and neither is any anonymous knob online 👌



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭blackcard


    Brian Hogan injured himself in the celebrations at the end. Had to be helped off the pitch



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,050 ✭✭✭conor05


    Brian Hogan done very bad damage to his knee or ankle supposedly.

    I’d say Bergin will get his red card overturned on an appeal, Butler will definitely miss the Bennettsbridge match.

    Jordon Molloy was a pleasure to watch this afternoon in that last 15 mins but as well as Loughlins did that was some bottle job by the Dicksboro. 2 spare men, Hogan repeatedly left 1 on 1 inside with Moylan with nobody else within 50 yards and how they ended up in a situation for the goal where Buckley is on his own with 2 OLG players just after he scored himself. Just shocking game management. I'd imagine it was like watching a slow car crash for anybody from the Boro.
