Waterford GAA Thread - Mod note post #1

Alternatively ticket sales could be strong and they want to maximise the profits…🤔

I agree they just don’t seem to get the support from business community etc , I know it’s not a fair comparison but you should see the Tipperary monthly draws the way they run it , they also are flogging a house as well . We seem to be so behind in the commercial activity .

Is this minor match being shown anywhere?

Edit - found it on clubber

Fantastic result for the minors

Into the All Ireland series

Most enjoyable half of hurling from an underage team I think I've seen since 2016. Looked a very well drilled team that hurled with intelligence, skill and freedom.

Facing those puckouts in the 2nd half was tough but they defended extremely well and then broke with a support runner always available and got the ball to the right man before lifting the head and getting the ball inside to the danger men.

Huge potential in that team. Well done to all involved.

Mod Edit

Warning issued.

Interesting to see if that team will start. Queally being loyal to the players that got to the final which is only fair. Although Conor Ryan unlucky to miss out with Daly coming straight back in. Daly is one of our best backs to be fair can’t argue with him being in the team

good win last night. A lot to like about this team. In fairness to limerick they made it hard for us in the first half and was a little worried at half time but we came out a different team in the second half and it was a comfortable enough win in the end.
Some fine hurlers across the board on this team. I know it’s only minor and a lot can happen from now til senior but after how poor we have been the last few years at underage it’s great to see a few green shoots and the lift the last two wins has given us all is great and badly needed.

One more win should be enough to get to a Munster final so hopefully we can get that. We have Cork away which will probably be a big test, they beat limerick well last week but I think it was a close game up to the last few minutes.
Clare in dungarvan is our last game. They play their first game today against Tipp in Ennis so should know a bit more about them after that

on the under 20s I taught they hurled alright and the score line didnt do them justice. Taught the backs hurled well (definitely one or two lads who maybe on senior panel in the future) think we lacked a classy forward or two and this probably cost us the game in the end. I know there isn’t a lot of expectation with this group but if you compare it to what we saw last year there is definite improvement and that is all we can really ask for.

I’m

travelling tomorrow without a ticket so if anyone has one spare going then please DM.

Thanks 👍

Hard luck to the Senior Footballers who went down fighting against Tipperary in the Munster QF

Is aussie anywhere near right?

Tongue in cheek, relax.

Apologies!! 🙈

Would that geographic spread of clubs around county Waterford be unusual down the years for county teams or the norm? Know previous teams would have more DLS, Mount Sion etc representation.
