But sadly not today’s.

Thank God. It’s bad enough that Michaels eventually won it but what’s done is done there. Gonzaga would be intolerable.

It’s been a great journey.

To quote one of their most famous alma Mater- the evil of two lessors !

It will be hard to surpass last year’s rollercoaster ride.

Tim_Riggins · January 26, 2020, 4:41pm

Fuck sake

gaillimhmick · January 26, 2020, 4:43pm

Poor Temple Carrig drew the short straw

Ashman · January 26, 2020, 4:48pm

Great to see the old boys getting behind the lads

balbec · January 26, 2020, 4:48pm

Mentality monsters

ChairmanDan · January 26, 2020, 4:50pm

Doubt Rock have been knocked out too many times before the month of January is even over. A sobering afternoon for the 69 time champions.

What a day for @balbec and his beloved Gonzaga.

Ashman · January 26, 2020, 4:51pm

What a competition . The southern counterpart has been sadly diluted with the end of knock out

Tim_Riggins · January 26, 2020, 4:57pm

I can’t recall the last time actually. Gerards a few years ago maybe.

Tim_Riggins · January 26, 2020, 5:06pm

Joy unconfined in Ranelagh right now with Jim O’Callaghan SC and Eamonn Ryan beaming from every lamppost. Car horns are blaring and there’s Jesuits setting off fireworks in the Gonzaga grounds. I bet they’re happy they didn’t become a Comprehensive school now.

Dziekanowski · January 26, 2020, 5:41pm

Wonderful scenes

Ashman · January 26, 2020, 5:49pm

Is Jim a Gonzaga alumni ??

gilgamboa · January 26, 2020, 6:07pm

Its knock out after xmas. The round robin only eliminates 4 teams or something out of 16

Julio_Geordio · January 26, 2020, 8:24pm

The Ko Samui cup will be a somber affair this year
