will you cop yourself on, its a fucking puck around in march, why would they be thinking about “experienced”?, the whole concept of a game like this is to give young lads a spin and fellas a break from heavy training

882

Wait until he manages an All Ireland winning senior hurling side before he gives Davy advice.

883

Derek McGrath comes across as an alright sort.

884

He was cute enough to realise he was being led by the OTB boys into comparing himself to Davy and he pointed out that he wasn’t in a position to offer advice to any man who had managed a team to an All Ireland.

885

Are they playing a defensive system, swarming around ball and counter attacking like the Indo said today or is that too simplistic.

Galway are a big team so will be an interesting challenge for Waterford on Sunday.

That’s the bare bones of it alright. Hurling catenaccio.

887

Great test for Galway to show their true rank. Joe Cooney has become one of our most important players and I expect his performance to be central the outcome.

Why wouldn’t it, sure Sidney = Fogarty

890

albeit very naive

891

Meh, old news. I’ve been saying for years that no one is going to Laois games anymore.

892

Did he say something like the following

My existence while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, wins medals. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that side-line, you need me on that side-line. We use words like honour, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch-line.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps in a county that has not won an All Ireland Senior Hurling title in a generation , and then questions the manner in which I win it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a hurley, and stand on the white line. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Richie Hogan

All the Shamrocks lads back plus Richie Hogan. Harsh on Kevin Kelly after last weeks performance.

899

Lester at half back worth a try. Cody possibly treating Kelly like Richie Hogan back in the day.

900

Galvin starts even tho his hamstring is not right.
