Club Championships 2018

I couldn’t say anything with real confidence as how it will play out but I reckon Peter Keane

But shur Jack is a guaranteed All Ireland

Seems Mayo may think so.

Jack seems to be biding his time yet.

Would that go down well with James O Donoghue?

All four teams competing in this year’s Carlow Senior Hurling Championship have safely negotiated the round robin phase and advanced to the semi finals.

How many in intermediate championship or is there one?

6 in the intermediate (albeit Naomh Brid conceded walkovers in 4 of their 5 games) and 8 in the junior.

Its a complete clusterfuck. There was meant to be 6 in senior. Naomh Brid had opted out of senior a few weeks before it was due to start, as they did last year. Bagenalstown opted out of senior for intermediate about a week before it was meant to start. Its not that long ago since it was an 8 club senior championship.

jez doesn’t augur well Geoffrey for the Carlow senior hurling team heading into a Leinster senior hurling championship round robin next year

makes Kerry with its 8 senior hurling hurling clubs look like a whopper of a championship

The 2nd strings of these clubs plus the first teams of Kenmare, Kilgarvan ,Dr Crokes contest the intermediate

Mount Leinster Rangers and Myshall have clubs in all three championships - senior, intermediate and junior. St Mullins are in senior and intermediate and Ballinkillen in senior and junior. Carlow Town are in intermediate and junior. I don’t know what’s going on in Naomh Brid. The club seems to have collapsed in the space of about two years, withdrawn from senior and conceding walkovers across all grades. That was an amlgamation in the mid 90’s of Leighlinbridge/Old Leighlin and Ballinabrana, a strong hurling area. There’s still a sprinkling of good hurlers of intercounty standard in the county but not a hope with four senior clubs of living with Galway, Kilkenny, Wexford and Dublin over 4/5 weeks.

Ref told get a result.

Fucking crazy shit

Tipp are put since when?

June. County board and divisions said before the Munster championship that there would be no games played till August at the earliest regardless of how Tipp did. That way clubs could plan and players could book holidays. This playoff is a result of the board awarding a walkover in April.

Another draw was surely the last result he was told to get

That decision is biting woefully hard now. They should have refixed the game when Carrick offered it.

Devane wanted to flex his muscles. An ape of a county chairman. Regularly abuses delegates from the top table.

His card has been marked a long time, how he got the votes was baffling.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t last his term. Delegates are getting sick of his behaviour including the mid Chairman who’s a clubman of his

I’m guessing he meant the fact he played 10 minutes injury time was because he wanted a winner and no one could get one. Could be wrong.
