He is kev, won an AI club medal with them, think he was on the under dogs team one year as well.
Originally from Moyne-Templetouhy club.
Would Hannigan be seen as a better footballer than hurler in Tipp, mullach?..played against him a few times, strong as an ox…
Darragh Egan will be a good addition to the football panel next year…

Jesus Killenaule is flting as a club, 4 Tipp senior panelists and now 2 guys on the football team, fair enough going for a relatively small club.
And of course they have yer man from last nights minor as well looking like a new star.

Hannigan isn’t a bad footballer, although he was poor enough against limerick in the Munster Championship. Haven’t seen much of him as a hurler to be honest with you.
:p, Egan would be good subtraction off the hurling panel first.

he was a very talented footballer in his youth, remember seeing him play minor for tipp at midfield and looked class…Think himself and Shane O’Brien went off to Australia the same year representing Ireland in the schoolboys international rules

They seem to have alot of young lads coming through alright.
The 2 footballers are still U-21.
John O’Dwyer from the minors last night has a cousin coming through as well, who is supposed to be handy.
Alot of their teams would have a weak tail though.
He just looks so cumbersome, too many Stapleton’s Grinders I’d say.

I just submitted mine on Facetheball.
I went with Wexford, Donegal, Armagh, Meath, Fermanagh, Tipp, Leitrim and Down.
I think we’ve all been convinced by Leitrims contingent on here alright.

Think I’ll have a €10 or €20 accumulator on 4 or 5 of these games. I reckon at least one will go to extra time to scupper things in a typically GAA fashion though.
Went for a 19/1 Wexford, Armagh, Fermanagh, Longford and Tipperary accumulator in the end.
From rte.ie
Donegal’s Ciaran Bonner may have to reassess his career after his club suspended him for the rest of the season for indiscipline.
Bonner and his Donegal and Glenswilly colleague Neil Gallagher were axed from the county panel by manager John Joe Doherty on Tuesday for breaches of discipline.
Now Glenswilly, who are managed by former All-Ireland winning forward Barry O’Hagan, have taken a similarly hard line with Bonner, while Gallagher has been warned about his future behaviour.
Gallagher, who captained Donegal to their only National League title two years ago, was injured in a club game a fortnight ago and was not fit enough to line out for Donegal in their All-Ireland qualifier against Carlow.
What a pack of wasters they have for a football team in Donegal.
Half time in Carrick-on-Shannon:
Leitrim 0-7 Longford 0-7.
Nobody, absolutely nobody, beats Leitrim in Carrick.*
- Except Roscommon - Leitrim have never beaten Roscommon in Carrick in the championship.

it would be a travesty if longford lost to leitrim- they had a decent minor team a few years ago & were an alright senior team after that
Kilmacud bought their best player and they have struggled since.
Travesty averted - Longford won. Never backing Leitrim again.
What a pack of hoors…:rolleyes: 15/16 minutes gone we’re leading 5 points to 1 and then kicked 5 points in the remaining 50 odd minutes.
Abysmal at midfield,our half back line were roasted.
Longford condensed m/f after the opening quarter, hoovered up the majority of breaking ball and had a couple of likely forwards in Berry, Barden and Kavanagh.
Those management heads that we’ve gotten appear unable to make a decisive strategy call from the line - they just replace players without analysing the symptoms of the problem.
Or maybe, just maybe, they are just there for “the expenses”.
