John Lee is a decent enough hurler but is a small bit overratedā¦He is no Tony Keady[/QUOTE]
Iāve always thought so as well to be honest. A lot of Galway people are starting to come around to that way of thinking as well. Loughnane must have been on the lash when he said he was the next Seanie McMahon. Not to be too harsh but heās yet another Galway hurler who became a ālegendā before heād really earned the right to be called one.

I wouldnāt be all that confident of tipp winning well if that is the teamā¦Kelly and O Mahoney havenāt much hurling doneā¦o Mahoney and Fanning arenāt wing backs and neither have much pace, both far more suited to centre backā¦Woodlock was poor at midfield last yearā¦Half Forward line looks lightā¦
They should have enough to win but I wouldnāt be putting too much money on it if that is the team

whoās the P. maher ?..not philip is it???.whereās the lad pat kerwick the half forward these days?..is he still on tipp panelā¦
Padraig Maher, started wing back in teh league final and went Centre back when Fanning got yellowedā¦Was full back for the 21s last year and looks to be a very good hurler in the makingā¦
Was only wondering the same thing about Kerwick a few minutes agoā¦
There is a hurling section and shite talk sectionā¦PM Billy Wright ot tipptops* if you want to know about the shite talk sectionā¦artfoley is often found in there kicking ass
pukey would Oāmahoney be a bit too slow to play out on the wing?..havenāt seem much of him this year but thought he looked a big presence in the middle last yearā¦reads it wellā¦didnāt think out the wing chasing a lad would suitā¦
Presume he will start at 6 anyway even though he was named on the wingā¦Tipp have been rightly stuck for a centre back for a whileā¦He had a solid year for them last year but had a bad dose of the mumps and is still on the mend from itā¦Neither him or Fanning are that quick and both could struggle to contain Timmy(roasted Eamonn Corcoran last year) and benā¦
It is gas, Newport are an intermediate side in North Tipp and they play him full forward as they think they have a better centre back in the club
Timmy is the reason the handpass was inventedā¦ :guns:ā¦terrible striker of a ballā¦ poor cunt couldnāt pick out a white horse in a coal bunkerā¦

The mumps are some dose. Rid of them for about two weeks now and still havenāt my appetite back. Poor aul Timmy is one of those players you get in every squad, the 800m runner type. David Tierney in galway is similar enough and he gets some amount of shit.

Fanning marked McCarthy in the 2005 Munster Final and didnāt have any trouble, I donāt think Timmay has improved any since.
Had them when I was 18 WTB, wasnāt right for about three months after them, lost about a stone of weight the week I had them and took about three months for the energy levels to return to normalā¦Was in bed every night about 9 o clock during my leaving cert absolutely wreckedā¦
