This is going to be some massive game with Offaly now. Will be massive pressure on both sides.westmeath should not be in this position, Kerry were a team that seemed to be going backwards from what they were at their peak 3 or 4 years ago,best known player missing for Joe McDonagh too. preddan (Kildare) - Posts: 736 - 22/04/2024 11:49:52 2539796 Link 0 |
When we won the McDonagh in 2021 the manager at the time (was it Shane O'Brien?) didn't let the u-20s play against Offaly and was widely criticised in the county as we had a good u-20 team that year too, but we went on to win the McDonagh. I'd say there will be serious discussion this week between the 2 managers and the county board. There's something wrong when the motm in the co final (Eoin Daly) can't make the 26, or did he leave the panel? Daly & Jogger terrorised the Raharney half backline, I think WH could've looked at something similar this year, big men are needed these days, Jogger scored 1-1 yesterday, Eoin Daly could've been turned into a regular senior county hurler. Killian was the only forward to score from play yesterday, Was Jogger needed in the backs when Kerry were playing with 4 forwards and 10 running from deep? Davy Glennon is a big loss, will he be available for Saturday? stonemadbeany (USA) - Posts: 542 - 22/04/2024 11:58:14 2539803 Link 1 |
Any harm trying Jogger out in the forwards? That was some goal he scored yesterday. Eoin Daly shouldn't be left out of the 26 when you see some of the forwards who started the game yesterday.

Apparently minor management are trying to get Aaron Flanagan's red card rescinded and to have him available for the Offaly game at the weekend. We are already through to the knockout stages but clearly the management are aiming to win the group. I thought his red card was very harsh anyway, it was handbags stuff.

According to Leinster council website senior match is in O' Connor Park at 3.00 and minor match is in Faithful Fields at 5.00, very tight timing as senior game won't be over until at least 4.30 and Faithful Fields is surely 30 mins from Tullamore Claretandblue (Westmeath) - Posts: 1489 - 23/04/2024 21:10:48 2540265 Link 0 |
Apologies, minor game is at 5.30 which makes more sense. Claretandblue (Westmeath) - Posts: 1489 - 23/04/2024 21:13:03 2540266 Link 0 |

County u14s beat Offaly at the weekend in Clonkill and the u15s lost by 5/6 to Dublin missing a few key players. They are playing Tipperary at the weekend. Dheen (Westmeath) - Posts: 782 - 24/04/2024 20:48:28 2540488 Link 0 |
