All Ireland Hurling Championship 2022

[endakenny]

Relax will you.

I had high hopes for Douglas circa 2017 with their all conquering underage teams and they rocked on to the Senior Championship with a forward line of Kingston, Cadogan, Turnbull, Cian McCarthy, Powter and Shane Bourke but it seems to have collapsed spectacular for them.

They were so strong in the forwards they had to accommodate Stephen Moylan in the backs.

Too middle class.

[peddlerscross]

I gave up on them when they had their post Championship drinking session in The Rochestown Park Hotel one of those years

Blackrock should have a purple patch to boost off winning the County a couple of years ago.

The Barrs have a fine crop of young hurlers coming through even if one of them is due to fuck off to play professional rugby and a few others steering down the intercounty football route.

Nouveau, middle class clubs usually have to go through a period of underachievement in which people laugh at them as they consistently lose to harder, less talented teams from more established clubs.

Then they eventually win, and bang, a monster is created.

Think Leinster in rugby.

Cork maybe need to utilise more players from clubs bordering Limerick.

Sure isn’t one of their “best players” Darragh Fitzgibbon a Castletown/Ballyagran man born and bred. 100%.

But Ballyagran or Limerick weren’t good enough for his father, he was going to win loads of All Irelands with Cork and his father wasn’t one bit shy about telling Limerick work colleagues about it either, nor was Darragh as he was growing up.

That went well for them.

Nasty post

[backinatracksuit]

Are you sure he’s from the Limerick side of the border?
I used to work with a close neighbor of his who was most definitely from Cork and Charleville

His old man is from Milford anyway. A proud corkman

My father in law knows Mossy well, he’s from a neighboring parish, I’m surprised he’s never said that,
Maybe it’s true, I genuinely don’t know, I’d never heard that

Wouldn’t matter, hed be pushed to make the 36 not to mind the 26.

[backinatracksuit]

Are you a Ballyagran man yourself?

[iron_mike]

I am.

[backinatracksuit]

Do you know which side of the border the Fitzgibbons live on?
