The Official 2012 Club Championship Thread

Kildorrey beat St Kieran’s of limerick 1-11 to 0-12 in the junior hurling final

Nobody to blame but themselves.

Nothing surer than if Coolderry or Kilcormac/Killoughey had to play the Kilkenny champions they’d have been beaten by double digits. Its a mirror image of what happened on the intercounty stage in the 80’s, when Wexford would do the hard part beating Kilkenny in a Leinster semi final only to contrive to lose to Offaly in the final.

Dissapointing from Oulart. Thomas’ will walk the All ireland

So much for Portlaoise being potential All Ireland Champions.

:rolleyes:

Oulart will probably win the Wexford championship again next year. They should do the honourable thing and give their place in the Leinster championship to the beaten finalists.

Surely anyone who is in the race is a potential winner of it farmer?

That was very poor from Portlaoise, they kicked it away quite frankly and can have no one to blame but themselves, but it was a pretty dire contest on the whole. Parkinson was right last year, and he’s still right his year.

Ballymun are decent, but after seeing that contest Crokes, Brigids or Cross wouldn’t fear them too much you’d imagine.

Well done to Kilcormac Kiloughey, a crowd of decent sorts :clap:

Just watching the Oulart game. The biff keeper basically got hit by two Garrett Sinnott efforts early in the second half. Probably the winning of it in the end. The Harriers would have walked through Leinster.

Ah fair play to the Offaly chaps. Immense team effort and work rate. A couple of inspirational points at the end by yer man Currams who resumed in the second half after going off in the first half when he was split open.

+1 to all that. Wexford hurling would sicken your hole.

Any relation of Liam Currams?

Crossmaglen vs Ballymun… a social workers dream

Paddy O Gorman will be in his element here when these two set of fans come face to face

Are you familiar at all with Ballymun Kickhams ?

Unlikely to happen. Will be a Kiltoom/Killarney final. Ballymun will get a hammering from Dr.Crokes while the Cross full-back line won’t have the guile for St.Bridget’s inside line that will include Puke’s pal, Frankie Dolan and Senan Kilbride.

Very few of the kickhams lads are from the flats area as far as I know Fagan.

Most are from Collins Avenue near the Autoban pub, Ballygall, Glasnevin type area.

They be from quite a middle class area really. They might play the socially deprived area card a bit to draw down grants. A few from the flats play juvenile but that is about it as far as I know

Man of the Match Jason Whelan didn’t sound middle class.

Certainly when I was playing senior football in Dublin in the 80s Ballymun’s problem was that they were too nice.

Son of Liam I believe. Liam was some stylish performer especially in the football

Read on another forum that he is his nephew

great result for ballymun today…some turnaround for paul curran as manager…he didn´t seem to be having much success when in charge of round towers a few years ago…then he took over his own club thomas Davis and that ended very badly…So fair play to him for making a success of ballymun…
Doubt Ballymun would have many from the flats in farness…more collins avenue…Derek Byrne has played for Round towers and ballyboden before joining ballymun…Leahy played for Clontarf as a minor…Burke is from Mayo…

Portlaoise and oulart shouldn´t even bother enterng leinster when they win their county championships next year…
