Thatâs big amongst them alright in fighting the rearguard action but truth be told they lost the battle decades ago. Even the âtraditionalâ GGA schools they were handed in the 1950s by the mono cultural society of the day would be far more into football.
It would be just Colaiste Eoin where theyâd hold out.
Iâm focused on what I can control pal.
Weâve a young lad from Ukraine with us who seems to enjoy hurling and football. Heâs been made to feel very welcome.
The professional firms have given the Dublin GGA team a major helping hand the last 10 years or so.
Rugby playing numbers are declining here, UK and NZ. Youâd want your head examined to put a young lad out on a rugby pitch now.
Another man with his head buried in the sand around the relative dangers of rugby and gaa
Frightening that you are coaching young kids
Sure gaa playing numbers are reducing too and the clown liking your posts thinks itâs a great thing.
Young lads go abroad after a global pandemic 
Community rugby bounce-back continues, tackle height trial extended | NZ Rugby.
Meanwhile in New Zealand.
Great to see the game growing 
You reap what you sow.
Rugby is doing everything to make it more accessible to people compared to the gaa which seems on doing the exact opposite for whatever reason.
Thatâs because the big heavy lad with huge gut mugging pints and atein tayto at the bar can look at his double on the tv screen and think âI can go out and lie on top of a lad just like him â
Itâs too dangerous and boys are dropping it.
Why do you advocate child abuse ?
Sweep sweepâŚâlook over there itâs rubbyâ
Rugby has bigger fellas than football but you are incomplete here.
I was referring to both rugby and football. The GGA gets little to no interest, thatâs reality. Youâd probably struggle on All Ireland final day these days (whenever that is at this stage).
Itâs different in other parts of Ireland for sure, but thatâs the way it is in that part of Dublin. The likes of Kilmacud Crokes was founded by rooral types years ago. But itâs in a huge catchment of Dublin. The likes of the @TheUlteriorMotive get going seeing a good few teams out there. But on the same morning thereâll be multiple rugby and football clubs / schools doing the same thing in the same area. Iâm fairly sure Granada is the biggest soccer underage club in the country and it is just one part of the Crokes âcatchmentâ!
Penrith?
Whatâs another friendly?
Anyone with an Examiner subscription fancy doing a copy and paste job on thisâŚ.
