    Great comeback, dominated the second half. Sean O'Brien superb throughout tonight. They are a fit bunch, kept going right til the end.

    Cork given a standing ovation at half time :pac:

    Great second half win by the u20s.
    Top class performance from Ruadhri O Beaglaoich. A pacey forward who can take guys on and score.
    Darragh Lyne and Sean O Brien two massive driving forces in the second half. Very impressed with Lynes pace for a midfielder and he has a bit of bite about him too.
    Really strong bench also.
    Paul O Shea and Walsh quiet by their standards so more to come from them in the semi all going well.

    o'beaglaioch looks like he'll make the senior grade..... nippy and accurate

    Might be a tad on the small side. Was only watching it on TnaG. However the full back McCarthy looks a strong footballer, in the second half he came out with a few balls, he looked comfortable carrying the ball and always found a man with his kick pass.

    What are the reasons for his departure ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,798 ✭✭✭An Ciarraioch


    Presumably fell out with the selectors again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,193 ✭✭✭✭Kerrydude1981


    County Leagues starting tomorrow, some club pitches are going to be in some state after all the bad weather, get the games played that's all the county board care about


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,422 ✭✭✭wonga77


    Itll be rush rush rush now and get a load of club games out of the way. Alot of pitches must be in sh1te. It must have been hard for clubs to even train the last few weeks considering the weather


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,798 ✭✭✭An Ciarraioch


    Offaly lead Antrim by 4 at HT in Tullamore, so at the moment looks like the hurlers will miss out on the league final.

    See Gooch is still doing the business for the crokes :pac:

    How sick would it be for a Spa B player to turn up of a Sunday morning and be told ah yeah you're marking Gooch there today. Best of luck. Lol

    Amazing finish in Tullamore - Offaly led by six approaching injury-time, but two Antrim goals rescued a draw, ensuring a Kerry v Antrim final!

    6 minutes of injury time at a minimum.

    Antrim goals in the 76th and 78th minutes.

    I presume Parnell Park, Dublin for the final
    Next weekend?

    No arrangements made so far, anyway.

    County final of Scór will be held in Milltown community centre this Friday - quiz starts at 6.30, and the other events start at 7.30. Format of the tráth na gceist is slightly different this year - first 60 questions follow usual table quiz routine, but then the top 3 teams go up on stage and answer 20 individual written questions (5 per team member), each worth 2 marks, so 100 is the maximum possible score. No doubt another titanic battle with our old rivals from Rathmore awaits!

    Hurlers in Croke Park at 1pm on Sunday. Dublin v Meath pushed back to 3.15pm because of it. Delighted for them getting the big final day after a great year so far, just a pity its clashing with the footballers in Monaghan.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,193 ✭✭✭✭Kerrydude1981


    Conway should enjoy the spaces of Croke Park, if he is on form then Antrim are going to have a tough job on their hands


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭dobman88


    Assume the games have to be called off this weekend after that announcement?

    I think they will play them behind closed doors to get the league finished


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭dobman88


    All games off until March 29th it seems so that's the league finished with unless they pick it up in April

    If/when normality resumes, club games would require a 2-3 week lead-in time:

    Half Time in the 2014 AIF on TG4.

    1-3 to 0-6
    Very defensive. Keeping plenty of men behind the ball. Good tackling. Poor shooting.

    One of the worst games of football I've ever seen. When the final whistle went that day I'm not sure if I was happier that Kerry won or not being subjected to that ****e any longer.

    In fairness that was the only way Kerry were going to win. If they had played as they had all that year Donegal would have picked them off with ease. I thought Kerry got their setup right on the day and got that bit of luck that they didn’t have in some other finals too. It was a great day out in Croke park with the minors winning as well.

    I wish they would just show the All Ireland's from the 70s and 80s,
    away more entertainment then today's games


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,101 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    Worth having a look at the stats from the game from Dont Foul.
