Seen Wexford three times this year. Once in the flesh in the league and twice on GAAGO v Galway and Dublin. Iām sorry but they are hopeless.
BDE gets an easy ride, maybe because he inherited a team burnt out by the little tyrant, but he hasnāt brought much to the party.
Canāt blame the little tyrant for today.
That was one of the most self-inflicted defeats Iāve ever seen. Some of the missed chances were absolutely criminal, we must have had 5 or 6 wides in a row when we were stuck on 0-16. A good few of the 19 wides were of the easy variety & we messed up 3 or 4 good goal chances too. We had opportunities to kick on after half time when we got level & late on when we tied it up at 1-20 to 0-23 but didnāt drive it home. We lacked a hard edge & killer instinct. Felt like Dublin were living on scraps & we were just throwing it away. In fairness, Donal Burke came up with some big scores at crucial stages but that was a horrendous result & terrible to conspire to lose that given chances created. But put the ball over the bar & in the back of the net & no more about it. Iāll catch you lads next Spring for the round robin. No point whatsoever trying to claim third spot, just go away & focus on the 6-week clay court style club hurling season.
Surely need ROC closer to goal
I make it Liam Og MvGivern had 4 wides on his own, to be fair shooting in general was fire
Fair play. We showed good persistence to see it out but Wexford left it behind them. A statto friend of mine has dublin 23 scores from 29 chances. Wexford 23 from 46!
2 poor teams.
Donal burke was outstanding in fairness.
It reminded me of Cork-Galway in last yearās quarter final. Keeper error to concede a goal & then miss an avalanche of chances, a load of easy ones.
Bonnar was never going to work in Wexford with his lisp. I think fat managers can be successful but they need to be menacing. As @briantinnion said to me, the signs werenāt good when BDEās wife bullied him on Room To Improve. Iād say weād be as well off rebuilding with Keith Rossiter or David āDocā OāConnor in charge.
6-27 - 0-13 63mins
KH the merciless
Galway donāt beat teams wearing green too often
That Kevin Cooney had just the match he needed.
I was surprised to read the other day that Donal Burke is only 24. For some reason I thought he was about 28. He seems to have been around forever.
Have you no swans to be bothering?
The real king wasnāt gonna preside over a 2019 effort where going to easy on Carlow put us out of the championship.
Just back from croke park. Wexford barely woke up til 55 mins. They hit some amount of wides. They stayed down like they were shot on many occasions. They lack spirit and fight. Juhy junior had a ball behind the goal trying to catch sliotars in the second half. Dublin deserved it.
Galway got triple westmeaths total.not a lot learned for anyone.
We learned the system isnāt the best
Leinster needs to be disbanded and GY and KK invited into Munster
I agree. Disband the provincials
