Why would we change it. We are aiming to be back for, and hopefully winning, a final. Makes sense to get as much experience playing there. Yes far more hassle etc. but sensible decision for the team.
Would really like to see Rian around the middle third for a sustained period. He has the quality and steel that we are maybe missing here. It may also present an opportunity for him to play his way back into the form that reflects his ability.
Whilst he may not have the engine of a Glass, he...
Whilst we haven't always helped ourselves the narrative is slightly unfair. Thinking back to that period would we have any players that would make a top ten of dirty players? Hard yes but not dirty.
Many opposition teams at that time feared or knew that they were inferior to us. They had to...
Said before the game it was a must win and somewhat disappointed we didn't.
Main reasons for that are that there are only one or two teams in the division close to top 10 and we want to be above them. We also want to use this league to learn how to eek out narrow victories against teams we...
I said when we dropped to division 2 that it created an opportunity to develop and cement a winning mentality. Something that we could use to get us over the line in the too many and too painful near misses of recent years. To me that makes Sunday a must win. If we really expect to be considered...
Personally I think he, along with a number of others, is disciplined and adheres to the system basically a good squad member prepared to scrafice his own reputation. He is not alone in that regard to be fair with Jarly Og, Duffy, Mackin and Hall amongst a number of others.
There are several...
To a certain degree McElroy has almost become a figure of criticism for the perceived failings of this team. Somewhat unfairly I would say. Having seen him at club level he would always have struck me as being a skilful player, fast, direct, willing to take responsibility and chip in with a score.
Well folks the clock is ticking round to excited o' clock.
The upcoming season presents both a huge challenge and opportunity.
The challenge is to gain promotion against teams we are expected to and should beat. The problem therein is that division 2 represents the type of opposition we...
I think we generally struggle when it comes to trying to manage games. Whether that be seeing a tight game out or even planning when to peak which is made harder with the current season set up. We are at our best when we don't over think it and just go out to win.
With the squad we have there...
Might only be the McKenna cup but great to see opinions on here are at full strength if not the team. Could see similar happening in the future in Ulster the way that is going too.
Appreciate this is mainly an u20 team but hope senior management are present and visible on the sideline. Would...
Has the most exciting thing to date about the championships been the debate around venues and buckfast consumption?
To date I can't think of any real shocks or see any real benefit to teams bar the extra games.
I had hoped that we might see something like the excitement/interest similar to the...
Well I suppose everyone has to have one good thing going for them....
Always look on the bright side of life....
