Liam Flynn is definitely not U20.

And you really think last Tuesday was there first session together ?

Cahill or overtraining because of a return to county training can't be blamed for these injuries, these players only went back training with the county last Tuesday and lads with matches the weekend with their clubs wouldn't have trained Friday night or Sunday morning if they'd a match that day.

Conor Prunty got injured Tuesday on their first night back so I couldn't see how that's overtraining and Montgomery has been playing both codes with his club and hurling with UCC so perhaps has being too much all along but again not down to Cahill or Waterford intercounty training.

Obviously the panel have missed out on a lot of training and matches together and it's a tough situation with the club championship scene still going but all in all, Cahill will have the majority of his panel for the next 5 weeks to prepare for Cork and every panel member will be finished clubs 3 weeks before the Cork match which wasn't always the case for opening Munster championship matches in the past.

strange to see them competing at division 3 level underage, particularly as their u15 team win the division 1 county final by about 18 points

Also bizarre to see Brickey Rangers in a division 1 county hurling final given their adult team is only junior grade. Must be good work going in there, that and growing population on outskirts of dungarvan is pushing into brickey land.

PTH2009 · 24-09-2020 2:00pm

Anyone knw anything about our Minor and U20 squads ??

Be great too win a game or 2 underage but even harder this year been straight knockout esp for the minors

Liam Cahill be delighted to lose players to another week of football championship.
Any reason to why it isn’t being played tonight? I can see why both clubs wouldn’t want to play a semi final Wednesday and final at the weekend but tonight made sense to play it

The player in question wouldn't have been available to play tonight,
Senior hurlers playing a challenge sunday

Waternut · 28-09-2020 5:05pm

I have to give a shout out to the Ballyhale manager after blowing Dicksboro out of the water in yesterday's Kilkenny final. I had doubts after the semi. Jockster is starting to fill out a pretty impressive managerial CV. Has he ever managed Lismore or has he ever been involved with Waterford underage?

He seems like someone the county board should be keeping tabs on and perhaps involve him with some of our underage teams.

One could only imagine what someone like him could bring to a minor or U20 team.

He still won’t be available next Saturday if rules are followed as he would have to isolate 10 days after his first test

PTH2009 · 28-09-2020 5:12pm

Any news from any the hurling challenge games ?

That result will please Liam Cahill. He will get the Fourmilewater players back now, whereas the Abbeyside players on the county panel are injured anyway. A Nire victory would have meant him having none of them back.

PTH2009 · 04-10-2020 5:47pm

Playing Kilkenny in a challenge match today

Any news from that

Conor Gleeson came off injured in the football match and Tom Barron didn't start due to injury

A silly decision by the player to play, he's after putting a lot people at risk but the club, as far as I'm aware, had no idea about the test

Crazy and incredibly irresponsible if true, I had to go for a test back in August myself, you restrict your movements until you get the result, simple as that...

I tested negative myself

silly decision by the player alright. but the dungarvan statement last night seems to indicate that the player was following club instructions, so dungarvan gaa club thought it was fine for a player awaiting a test result to play a match? a misunderstanding of the regulations

big_drive · 06-10-2020 9:44am

You'd want to be very slow to misunderstand the regulations. Its very clear really while someone is waiting on a result, any bit of common sense would be enough

Horshesh1t excuse from Dungarvan. If they were unsure they should have asked the county board for clarification.

They placed a greater value on winning a trophy than the health of their team, opponents and community.

The book should be thrown at them

deiseach · 06-10-2020 1:41pm

The Club clearly has a lot to answer for. Thank goodness no people were involved in taking any decisions though, eh?

They could have asked the dog on the street. Everyone knows including Dungarvan GAA, they just got caught and are trying to cover their own arses.

I honestly think they should be stripped of the title

Suppose having the IC championship is very much something to look forward to and will really lift the nation

Imagine if we win the AI, no way in hell social distancing will be adhered too

Who does a player have to report any symptons to, is it the Covid Officer, the Secretary or Chairman or maybe the manager of a team.

Bad policy of some in the local media to identify the player. It was not given for any other player who may have had the virus. I know the media did not name names, but you dont have to think too hard to work out who it was when some in the media mentioned umpires etc.

Maybe they should have asked the Covid Officer. He was able to say a week before how he was allowed into team photos because of the position he held.

He did manage the co u21s about 15 years ago. But his track record is mainly outside the county, he managed Carrigtwohill to their first Cork co senior championship when they were just up from intermediate.

PTH2009 · 08-10-2020 2:27pm

Few challenge games last week

Aussie played in the centre half forwards with TDB centre half back

Giveitfong · 08-10-2020 6:49pm

Thanks for that, PTH2009.

Missing from the senior team were Conor Prunty, Jamie Barron, Kevin Moran, Pauric Mahony and Patrick Curran. Still, quite a strong team.

The Under 20 team (only 14 players listed) looks like a second string to me. I don't know much about the minors (again, only 14 players listed), but I would have expected a few more from Ballygunner and Abbeyside. Still, a good result against Cork, with plenty of scores and no goal conceded.

HelloHello1234 · 09-10-2020 12:22pm

The Minor Team drew with Laois tuesday 0-21 to 1-18. Mainly second string again. No real stand out performers. Laois did have a strong centre and might be a surprise this year. I believe Derek Mcgrath has done a few sessions with them. The Seniors also played the u20s on the same night. I happen to catch about 15 mins of the second half but can say the 20s did put it up to them. NO aussie or Calum lyons for the seniors but barron did play. Very impressed with the u20s and if the championship goes ahead id be confident of a much better performance than last year.

PTH2009 · 12-10-2020 2:11pm

Let's hope this virus can stay out of the Waterford intercounty camps at all levels

Roll on the 31st Oct

thesultan · 13-10-2020 9:53am

For those that have the basic sky package. The game is on sky sports mix so available to those without sky sports
