Senior Maloise by 9 over Calry. On a good run of form and Calrys defeat last week would of knocked the wind out of them Curry v Farnans- Farnans by 2, Farnans won't be looking at relegation yet. Win here and sets up a big game v Calry Shamrock Gaels v Tubber- Has to be some life in SG, a win for Tubber gives them a shot a staying out of relegation, Gaels by 4 eventually DRP v Coolera- Biggest game of the weekend, DRP most impressive team in championship so far. Big contenders. Too young and organised for an old Coolera, DRP by 5 Intermediate CConner v Easkey - CC promising start a bit undone the last day plus losing Carribine. Easkey by 8 Coolaney v Enniscrone - EK have put themselves back in it but feel Coolaney may be timing form just right. Coolaney by 6 Geevagh v St John's - Geevagh have impressed so far, John's holding trying to hold tight for underage to come through. Geevagh by 3 Harps v Pat's- This should be a cracker. Harps with huge pace and Pats going well. Looking forward to this. A draw! Sligobunnie (Sligo) - Posts: 5 - 16/09/2023 07:42:16 2504406 Link 0 |
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Drumcliffe need to win by 3+ points against Tourlestrane to make semi. If Drumcliffe win by 3 points, it will come down to "points for" in the games involving head to head teams, the new scoring difference is difficult to work out

I was doing the same calculations myself. Coolera are going to finish on zero of a score difference. At the moment Drumcliffe are minus 3 and Tourlestrane are plus 3. So if Drumcliffe beat Tourlestrane by 3 (which is a huge ask) their score difference will be zero and Tourlestrane becomes zero also. After that I have no idea what happens. John's have really thrown the cat among the pigeons. Never saw that result coming. Coolaney only hanging by their finger tips. I can't see them beating Easkey next week and Enniscrone will surely beat the Gaels leaving Easkey and Enniscrone in Semi

This is all assuming Coolera will win next week of course but mostly likely will do. Presently among the 3 in that group it stands at Tour 2pts +3 score diff. 11 points scored Coolera 2pts but score diff of 0. 20 points scored. Drumcliffe 0pts but -3 score diff. 9 points scored. So by that logic if DRP were to win by 3 they'd all be tied on 0 score diff so would depend on the score in the game. For example if DRP won 11-8 then Tourlestrane would not progress. The intermediate gave up a few surprises. Didn't see Geevagh losing to Johns and they may have blown their chances of a semi final although Pats will take nothing for granted after the Harps game. Mullinabreena were many peoples favourites to win the championship but seem to struggle to put 60 mins together and got a draw. Will Michael's survive in Junior A is another question for next weekend or can you have a first team in Junior B? Sligoman1234 (Sligo) - Posts: 430 - 17/09/2023 20:22:04 2504542 Link 0 |
Injuries are murdering Geevagh. No Pat Hughes or Donal Conlon. If they win next week they are in the semi final. Should they lose they could well be in the relegation playoffs. It's that tight. Coolaney definitely were not my favourites to win the intermediate. I said at the beginning of the year that they were too old. So while I was correct there I also said the Bunnies would make the semis and I was so wrong there.

Anyone think the scheduling could be improved to increase the take up of the weekend ticket? I'd love to go to maybe 4 or 5 games if I could but so many are on at the same time. letsgosligo (Sligo) - Posts: 103 - 17/09/2023 23:19:45 2504559 Link 0 |
Be a help to know where they are first. Bad form for players not knowing where and not knowing when up to a few days ago.

So last weekend of the group stages coming up. I'm going to back Coolera and Tourlestrane to win ending DRPs run in the championship. Molaise to beat Mary's and Calry to beat Farnan's and stay safe. So if I have my pairings correct that would be a Mary's v Coolera and Tour v Molaise Semi? Sligoman1234 (Sligo) - Posts: 430 - 20/09/2023 12:31:28 2504921 Link 0 |
Would it not be Mary's v Tourlestrane and Coolera V Molaise, based on your round 5 predictions, Molaise & Tourlestrane to finish top of respective groups?

Last weekend of Round Robin. Group 1 of the Senior championship has been a complete bore fest. No really good game, no upsets and nothing of note happened. Molaise and Mary's far superior to the other 3. These 2 are playing this weekend which will sort out who finishes first or second. Neither will want to lose but neither will they want to go full tilt. Whoever loses will probably play Tourlestrane so that's also an incentive to win this weekend. I think Molaise Gaels will win and in the other game I will go for Calry to condemn Farnans to relegation playoffs. eoinog (Sligo) - Posts: 1979 - 20/09/2023 14:49:43 2504961 Link 0 |

Remember the penalty shootout where George Hamilton used those immortal words "A nation holds its breath". It will be a bit like that tomorrow when Drumcliffe take on Tourlestrane, except in this case it will be the GAA county that holds its breath. Can Drumcliffe beat Tourlestrane and in doing so beat them by enough to knock them out of the championship. A few players that were unhappy not to get higher in MC Entee's pecking order have the opportunity to showcase their worth tomorrow. If they don't take the opportunity then they will remain at the bottom of the list. I have no doubt that MC Entee and MC Guire will be watching in the stands . Forecast is poor for tomorrow which will play into the holders hands as it will be difficult to get sufficient scores. Drumcliffe Will need goals, probably more than one. Its Tourlestrane to grind out a one or two point victory . Drumcliffe to finish third and their year over. eoinog (Sligo) - Posts: 1979 - 23/09/2023 09:09:38 2505284 Link 0 |

If winning 7 in a row championships makes us unpopular then i dont have an issue with that. Its a natural reaction to a successful team. End of an era today and its been coming for a while. Appetite just wasnt thete this year and complacency today didnt help against a good young hungry team. But i can only have praise for this group of Tourlestrane players ( some of whom will unlikely play again) the sacrifices and dedication over the last number of years will be phenomenal. With little comi g through from underage and the the bigger north Sligo clubs getting their act together it may be a while again.

An unbelievable achievement to be that dominant, a proper Gaa Club is Tourlestrane, not many here in Sligo.

Well I expected Tourlestrane not to win this year but I didn't think it would be by not qualifying for semi finals. Sligoman1234 (Sligo) - Posts: 430 - 24/09/2023 00:08:41 2505388 Link 0 |
