Itās atrocious. Iāve said it time-and-time again but the GAA/Higher Education/Camogie Association and LGFA are pathetic giving rights to so much things to a third party like Clubber.
Youd want to be buying the season pass
And you didnāt have to get off your arse and go to it
Iād say there was a fair clamour for them
Its awful on the joints. Ive played rubby on it i was in bits afterwards

The whole thing will surely go belly up soon.
Thereās about 5 houses using my own subscription.
Personally i find it very sterile/unfulfilling watching games on streams.
Sure who else is going to show these games, Iād be interested to see their accounts.

Anyone got the breakdown of scorers?
Fairly certain itās loss-making and theyāre just planning on building enough of a catalog of rights to be able to sell it on in a few years.
Grants etc perking them up for equipment etc currently.
EDIT: In terms of whoād be showing them, probably nobody for a lot of them. I think GAA should have them on GAA Go personally though instead of letting rights for them go.
SCORERS - CLARE: Mark Rodgers (0-3 frees) and David Conroy (0-1 free) 0-4 each, Peter Duggan 1-0, David Reidy (0-1 '65) and Keith Smyth (0-1 free) 0-3 each, Shane Meehan 0-2, Diarmuid Cahill, Paddy Donnellan and Keelan Hartigan 0-1 each.
SCORERS - LIMERICK: Paddy OāDonovan 0-7 (0-5 frees), Cathal OāNeill 1-1, Shane OāBrien 0-4, Luke Flynn 1-0, Donnacha Ć DĆ”laigh, Colin Coughlan and Adam English 0-2 each, Mark Quinlan, Barry Murphy and MicheĆ”l Houlihan 0-1 each.
Good few wides on both sides, as to be expected. SOB alone could have had another four or five points.

At 1pm today there was 5 schools games on live.
Impossible to see how that can be bettered by anyone else other than Clubber.
I donāt get your gripe.

Whereās my gripe?
Only gripe I have is official league/orgs selling rights off to a third party and I donāt think quality of it is great.
I agreed with you that a lot of the stuff wouldnāt be on elsewhere which would be a pity.
Impossible to see how they make money off showing a school game unless the camera quality was very low?
Great for the school players, plus few lads got interviewed after.
The whole thing doesnāt stack up really.
I wonder what way legally things work for them to be allowed to do the schools games.
For example for Minor Intercounty Hurling/Camogie anyway if you want to record a match, you have to receive permission from the opposition to record it. Not sure where permission lies for schoolkids in the Harty etc. with Clubber publicly broadcasting it.
Iāll say one thing for Clubber, at least they have half and full time analysis. Plus interviews with players and management. Itās a lot more than youād get from Limerick GAA TV. Ok itās basic enough, but theyāre trying anyway.
As for the game itself, we looked to be way ahead of Clare in terms of prep and work done, even though theyāre back training two weeks longer than us. Iād nearly give MicheĆ”l Houlihan MOTM, he was excellent in the second half in particular. OāBrien, CON, Coughlan, Dan, Quinlan, OāConnor all very good too.
Fitzgerald from Monaleen did some good things when introduced, Luke Flynn took his goal very well.

Was the schools final not live on RTE the last few years?
Heās away with the faeries on this one. Shur a Minor GAA match now has lads of 15 playing. At least schools theyāre much older at stage. Either way, heās flat out building strawmen to have a cut off clubber for some reason.
O Neills ability to shoot from distance is incredible. A nightmare for defenders now as well given we have lads who can run directly at you too.
O briens radar was a little off but his ability to win his own ball inside will see him get a right chance
Of starting too.
Can you imagine him and gillane in the two corners and those long diagonals Limerick love.
