Replying To Purpleandgold72: "Must have been. He's hardly still injured…? And what exactly is the story with Molloy too…never any updates on his injury which he seems to be suffering with for almost the last 6 months now…" He was in Portlaoise with the team, so there's no falling out and no benefit in speculating there is goreyll (Wexford) - Posts: 124 - 21/06/2024 13:16:04 2553390 Link
The team named is probably the correct one except for the inclusion of mcguckin. I think Kevin Foley might have been a better choice. I know Kevin hasn't been in the best form but could come good on the big occasion. His experience and positional sense would be an asset to the team. Surely Dee will play a role at some stage. He must be itching to get back on the team. Apart from Kevin and Dee we have good options off the bench with Corey Byrne Dunbar and his namesake Cathal. Hopefully the matchups work in our favour. Clare will go at us with intensity and they will feed Reidy and o'donnell at every opportunity. On the flip side we must avoid overplaying the ball in our half back line and full back line. Give Rory Mac Chin and Byrne quick ball and if on song will get the scores. Finding the net is vital and cutting down on our wide count will increase our chances of victory.

Replying To Viking66: "David Fitzgerald has played wing downward every game for the last 2 years or more. Why do lads still, especially paid pundits, think he is playing midfield? Just because he's named there?" Because the standard of punditry is poor LohansRedHelmet (Clare) - Posts: 2578 - 21/06/2024 13:48:55 2553403 Link
Replying To Afinestick96: "Keith had said he expected at least 1 of Jacko or Mikie to be available. Turns out neither are named in the squad" Mikie wont be involved with panel for rest of year due to injury sadly. countyman2022 (Wexford) - Posts: 660 - 21/06/2024 14:00:47 2553409 Link
Replying To goreyll: "He was in Portlaoise with the team, so there's no falling out and no benefit in speculating there is" Thats good to hear . Please god we'll be in a semi final and he'll be back for then Afinestick96 (Wexford) - Posts: 327 - 21/06/2024 14:08:13 2553412 Link
Replying To countyman2022: "No bad blood? What ye shower done in Portlaoise in 2020 was thuggery and a disgrace. And you know well enough what i am talking about. `Horrible." No I am afraid I don't know what you are talking about and i would be very surprised if I was not there please explain it Ja clooney (Clare) - Posts: 940 - 21/06/2024 14:18:43 2553419 Link
Replying To LimerickandProud: "Your right, the shock would be if Clare start as selected. Lohan always thinks he is fooling someone by naming dummy teams but nobody buys it amymore." It will start as selected id say clooney (Clare) - Posts: 940 - 21/06/2024 14:19:27 2553420 Link
Replying To hunting: "Can there be changes to the squad on matchday" Yes. Reserves can be called in. Up to 4 I think but I'm not 100% sure on that number Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 12873 - 21/06/2024 15:26:48 2553445 Link
Jack might be included yet. I imagine that team went in Tuesday or Wednesday.the feedback I was getting recently as well is that Ryan is OK to play hunting (Wexford) - Posts: 1012 - 21/06/2024 15:36:36 2553454 Link
Replying To hunting: "Jack might be included yet.

I heard he was nearly OK to play last week. But in the media he's 100% ruled out. I hope he plays WEXILE (Wexford) - Posts: 298 - 21/06/2024 16:48:13 2553466 Link

I suppose we may wait until tomorrow to find out but I thought an injured place would have to drop out of the panel for tomorrow for Jippo to start Afinestick96 (Wexford) - Posts: 327 - 21/06/2024 17:30:59 2553480 Link

Let's hope Shane Reck wears a groin guard this time.. if he's anywhere near Tony Kelly he'll need one TomWex (Wexford) - Posts: 79 - 21/06/2024 19:04:16 2553493 Link
Replying To Viking66: "David Fitzgerald has played wing downward every game for the last 2 years or more. Why do lads still, especially paid pundits, think he is playing midfield? Just because he's named there?" He a class player ball in hand but loose enough too. For a big man he doesn't win too many puckouts. Thought he roasted Donohue in the league game so I'm hoping we will try someone else tomorrow on him. Maybe Conor Foley. Little bit worried about our two young wing backs against Duggan and Fitzgerald but they have earned their chance. Dwyer, Jacko, Ryan, Molloy all gone from the 26, who else has dropped out or back the list? It's still our strongest 26 on paper in years, DOK could give a great boost last 10-15 mins. Dunbar better off bench too when the space opens up. Timbertony (Wexford) - Posts: 252 - 21/06/2024 19:47:05 2553503 Link

Replying To Afinestick96: "That would be some lift. I suppose we may wait until tomorrow to find out but I thought an injured place would have to drop out of the panel for tomorrow for Jippo to start" Rossi has said consistently that Ryan is definitely out. Is he been tactical? I doubt it. Ryan will be a huge loss but it's up to the rest of the backs to up their game significantly therefore minimising his absence. Let's see how it works out.

If we don't cut down on our free count we won't be winning anything. Every match this year the scores against us from frees has been ridiculous. COME ON MANAGEMENT SORT THIS OUT NOW BEFORE 3PM lochgarmanabu (Wexford) - Posts: 1022 - 22/06/2024 00:47:12 2553531 Link
Replying To lochgarmanabu: "If we don't cut down on our free count we won't be winning anything. Every match this year the scores against us from frees has been ridiculous. COME ON MANAGEMENT SORT THIS OUT NOW BEFORE 3PM" Exactly. Giving away soft scorable frees has dogged us for years. Surely we should tackle, block and hook, battle hard but fair making things difficult for the opposition to take shots by close marking. It is infuriating to see our free count in the stats after games. It is most definately something that coaches and management should be working on, or is it the case that you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Then again it's also said that you are never too old to learn. Magpie2 (Wexford) - Posts: 371 - 22/06/2024 05:44:57 2553533 Link
Head on the block time. Regrettably I'm going for a Clare win. If Jippo was there I would have fancied our chances. I think they will put our backs under severe pressure and therefore out score us. Verdict--- Clare to win by 5 points. Please, please lads prove me very wrong. Magpie2 (Wexford) - Posts: 371 - 22/06/2024 06:03:39 2553534 Link
