DOC was wing forward in '07 when we upset Tipp I think. May have scored a point or two.
We were due to open our championship campaign at home to Dublin tomorrow. It set me off looking for Rory OāConnorās winning point from downtown in the equivalent fixture two years ago. 2 minutes 40 seconds into this video. Rory OāConnor is superb. Just look at this footage. The way he knifes, scythes, cuts through a defence with a sharp change of direction at pace is just fantastic, like for the penalty in the Leinster Final last year. But also for several points struck off either side in this video. If he could become a little bit more consistent then weāll surely win the All Ireland before 2023.
Rory O Connor is a class act. A real tip end forward that Wexford havent had in years. They just need to settle on a position for him. He seems to be moved around a lot or else they should make him the fulcrum of their attack like Canning/Callanan.
Like Joe heāll find his natural position at centre back before long
Has anyone already posted about The Hurling Podcast? Done by Ben Bernie from Ferns and Gary Moore (I think) from Askamore. Theyāve 10 odd episodes done so far with a mix of hurlers from the last 3 decades. Iāve listened to 7 of them so far
I just listened to the Jack Guiney one today and was amazed how honest he was about himself. The two with Gizzy are also top class. The lads are great at probing a bit and then just shutting up and letting lads talk. Not sure what their backgrounds are and if this is their field or if itās just a side thing they picked up. Either way, its well worth a listen.
First episode is below
Will Richie Lawlor need another couple of years to step up to senior ??
Iād say so. Be a lot to expect a lad just out of U17ās to be at the required level of physicality. A few promising prospects for Wexford from last years Minors though.
Have listened to a good few of them. Itās an easy listen and good to have something on a local level. Guests have been good so far too. Itās Gary Doran, heās from Kilrush so think the 2 lads probably went to school together in Bunclody.
Will those lads get any games at all this year? Whatās the latest on the underage?
I think theyāre related too based on a reference they made to one of Dave Bernieās nephews when they were slagging Eoin Conroy
And agreed, itās a very easy listen too
Yeah theyāre cousins I think they mentioned in one of the earlier episodes
They could well be, I donāt know Gary. Think the Gary Moore youāre thinking of plays for Glynn. Was with the senior panel few years back.
Thats the one
Should be back in late July/Early August Iād imagine. A pity they didnāt leave minor and U21 the way it was.
Win the House in Maynooth is tomorrow I see on Bookface.
How has it gone @Gman?
Have Larry & Lee promos worked and a cash cow been reared?
@Bandage would be the man in the know. The fact theyāre still advertising that tickets are for sale wouldnāt indicate a whole lot of positivity to me.
Havenāt heard much since, but it hadnāt gone well at the original date. Canāt see how theyād have got much more considering the lock down since
Galvin

Telling his county players not to do anything with their clubs. Whatapp screenshot going around.
