It’s ridiculously easy you don’t even have to reply to him or tag him, just take a pop at tracky He was on about ‘having a horn for Tracky’ a few posts up… Freud would have a field day…
Incredible developments in the West Junior A hurling championship. Potential for it to be even more box office than usual. The boys in the South couldn’t resist the lure and have been annexed by the West. Once in a lifetime opportunity for @balbec’s boys to win the only medal that matters in limerick hurling.
Ya it would make far more sense geographically and numerically to have the south and the east join. But this means they have two groups of 5 and we have two groups of 6 so there is some small bit of logic to it.
Further news 4 from the West will progress to the county.
There will be no quarters in the West this year, top two from each side will play semis and will also be ones going through to county.
Seeding was discussed and shouted down as unwestmanlike so there’ll probably be one absolutely vicious group.
This means county last 16 is gone as well. 2 from East and City will play the 4 from the West.
It is not the West/South Championship. This was very important to the West board apparently $$$$.
Next year will be all county.
It’s win win for all west teams in the intermediate hurling championship now.
Win it out and you are promoted to premier intermediate.
Get relegated and you are back in the box office west (and south) junior A hurling championship.
All this happened in the space of about 24 hours apparently. The West clubs got a phone call during the week and needed to vote by the following morning on whether they wanted to merge or go all county. How this decision is only made in February is another story.
