The Vrigin Megastore 1-18 GMIT 0-0 at half time

Just in fromā€¦

Mary I had the breezeā€¦ that said, GMIT are hopeless. Galvin, Reidy, Lynch, Hannon and Oā€™Meara doing all the runningā€¦ think Mary I fullback line had to deal with 2 balls all half.

The Virgin Megastore is such a 1990s name for Mary I, harking back to when the 90%+ female student body would be in Punches Pub. Showing your age, pal.

I see Eamonn Cregan whinging again in the paper today. Christ he is one painful dinosaur, what harm he made a complete tit of himself and showed how little say he has with the Mary I team

Austin Gleeson, tinker :rollseyes:

While he is a whinge, he was over on the far side of the pitchā€¦ the lads had the subs filled out and gone in by the time he walked across the pitch at HT :joy: ā€¦ No doubt Gavin was looking after the Limerick lads.

What happened, kid?

Sent off again. Off the ball incident.

Itā€™s Eamonn Cregan v Davy Fitz in the Semi final Friday week ā€˜belowā€™ in C.I.T.

Who will win this evening. Are UL worthy favourites ?

Gleeson has the necessary bit of boldness (filth) that all top hurlers have or need.

Indeed. He reminds me of young Ken McGrath. Never afraid of pulling a dirty blow.

No doubt Davy Fitz targeted him for treatment as well.

And more power to him.

He wonā€™t last long as an intercounty hurler without it. Far better to have that bit of devilment than be a nice hurler without the aggression.

McGrath was top class, at the start of his career he was playing in some pretty poor Waterford teams but Gleeson looks like possibly surpassing him.

Him and Dunford both dismissed on straight reds within 24 hours. Waterford showing this competition the respect it deserves.

Whatever Gleeson is, heā€™s a long fucking way to go before heā€™ll surpass McGrath.

I think that Austin is ahead of where Ken was at this stage of his career. He is a potentially phenomenal talent. He needs mentoring on a couple of key areas but if they can be addressed he will be a great.

That wasnā€™t denied Fagan, what I said was he has some way to go to surpass him. Donā€™t see the point in comparing him even, he has enough pressure as it is. Some hack like Jackie Cahill will be writing stories comparing them next week as a result of whatā€™s been posted here, mark my words.

You are a stupid fuck
