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

Woeful stuff

2 of the Kerry half forward line kick horrendous wides and TO5 takes off the poor corner forward

I dont think I’ve ever seen a less talented kerry forward unit at any level. Tomas may be about to preside over another embarrassment.

Down 1-6
Kildare 1-6

51 minutes gone.

Kildare caught wide open at the back after Down win their own kickout cleanly in the middle of the field at a time when Kildare were completely getting on top in the game.

Goal for Down. Down 2-6 Kildare 1-8. 54 minutes gone.

Kildare win it with the very last kick. A Kevin Cassidy type effort by Jack McKevitt. Based on watching the last 24 minutes of that it was the correct result.

Some great names on this Kildare team.

We’ll be seeing Ethan Montaine and Tomas von Engelbrechten again in the final.

Paddy McCarthy is a future Down senior captain.

Great Dublin accent on this Kildare number 9 being interviewed.

A great aul grade all the same. Kildare are coming like a train.

Didn’t score for the first 25 mins almost. Down looked very good in that time with some lovely incisive football.

Fair play to kildare though, thundered into it and deserved the win. Thought they were going to do a “donegal” on it and run down the clock without having the balls to shoot but what a fantastic kick to win it.

A very enjoyable game of ball.

Facile victory for Offaly over Dublin. They are coming again. Did it without the services of Jack Screeney too. The heartbreaking minor All Ireland loss from last year does not look to have stalled the momentum in Offaly.

Watching Wexford Kilkenny in Nowlan Park on a delay here. I know the final score already. Quite a bit of shadow boxing in first half and obviusly it exploded into life in the 2nd half. The standard looks a lot higher than the Clare Tipp match during the week. Lot more physical, less wides, better first touch and even though both teams going with a “plus 1” there is very little uncontested. Byrne and Dunbarr look real players. Ref very fussy with steps. Robbie O Flynn would still have a hamstring if he was presiding over Tipp Cork last Saturday night.

Duignan has Offaly purring

Good win for the Limerick minors turning around a seven point loss to Tipp a few weeks back to win by a goal tonight, they play Kerry in one Semi while Tipp play Cork.

These high shots are out of control. Another bad one there.

Young Niland is going to have to learn how to use his right.

The second one was a red card all day.

Galway will walk the minor again.

These minors will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
