Shane isnā€™t grumpy.

He is when he loses :joy:
I know heā€™s not really.

A county holds its breath. Like all Cairde Loch Garman members Iā€™m nervously waiting for team news and to see if Reck, Ryan and Chin are out as feared.

Ah here I assume thatā€™s a wind up?

Iā€™d say Ryan will be alright but Iā€™d be worried about the other 2. I was in attendance last Sunday when they got injured and it didnā€™t look good.

Lots of talk on the radio this evening about the wide open spaces of croke park v the tighter confines of wexford park.

@Gmanā€™s stats tell us there is a 1m difference in width and a 3m difference in length. Hardly that big of a deal.

Also talk that TJ was fouled a lot in Wexford Park. I donā€™t recall any fouls on him.

Reck is hamstrung, is he? What happened the other two?

Yeah Reck was holding his right hamstring. Think Ryan got injured against Kilkenny and wasnā€™t playing in the match. Shoulder I think. Chin pulled up after a solo run and hobbled off. Wasnā€™t moving well at all.

Thanks. Youā€™d think Ryan could play with an injection. Reck will presumably be out. Even a minor hamstring strain would be unlikely to come right in a week. Who knows with Chin? Heā€™s a quick healer but hard to predict without knowing exact injury.

Iā€™d say Ryan will be fine. He went in when Chin went off and heā€™s a tough bit of stuff. Iā€™d say Reck definitely most doubtful. Havenā€™t heard anything further about Chinā€™s injury so hopefully heā€™s fine.

Iā€™ve just gotten my Cairde email with the team and Iā€™ve asked them to take back my tickets. :disappointed_relieved::disappointed_relieved::disappointed_relieved:

Cathal Barrett named to start for Tipp so hamstring mustnā€™t have been too bad.

Pretty much as expected?

Yep only call was Morrissey or O Laughlin

Whatā€™s the team? Iā€™d expect Oā€™ Connor for Dunbar and maybe Shane Reck for Damien Reck if heā€™s not fit.

30,000 going from Wexford and there was only 15,200 at the defining home game in the last round of the round robin.

Donā€™t ever change people.

Pity we are missing Ryan, Chin and Damien Reckā€¦ Iā€™m looking forward to seeing young Colfer playā€¦ saw him play junior b against Kilmore on the back pitch in poulpeasty last year. Fantastic talent, he could turn on a sixth pence.
