Official All Ireland Minor and U20 Hurling & Football Thread (Part 1)

10 on that Clare panel played at minor/U21/senior intercounty, O’Donnell was a slightly late bloomer. This was the team that was a year behind Tony Kellys/Colm Galvin/Peter Duggan team that backboned the three in a row 21’s

O’Donnell as seen as more a corner back than a forward up til minor from what I remember.

He was, like his brother

10,000+ expected in OMP in 2 hours time :eek:

Great to hear.

Probably a bigger crowd at this minor final than a fair chunk of this years senior championship games in either code. This is like a throwback to when people were ravenous for games.

Like a young Ger Oakley number 9 for Offaly.

Some crowd in at this. Jaysus.

There’s mayte on that goalie :clap:

Terrible reffing there. First missed the clearest free you’d ever see, then gave a free against him when he should have stopped play for the head injury

Been a few loose shoulders into heads here already.

Naoise Waldron is like Gary Neville the noises out of him

The small lad 15 for Offaly is class

And tough as nails.

Lowry would want to stump up for a gym

Laois taking on awful stupid shots.

The 2 lads are having the time of their lives on commentary

Laois seem short on forwards any time the ball goes up front for them. The Del Boy influence?

Good contest. Laois up against it with the wind now against them for the 2nd half.

Cant speak a word of Irish but the co commentator is a head wrecker.
