Speaking of betting odds. Today is first time I can recall that Dublin hurlers have been priced as favourites against Galway. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2556 - 16/01/2022 11:42:01 2395131 Link 1 |
Dublin back to the pack for sure but Id expect them to be competitive. Gannon and Archer would be great additions if they can make the grade, did Archer get a hamstring playing on Saturday after playing Sigerson ? Any word on P Small injury? Kerry looking strong all right but they still have to win the big one after a long absence - brings its own pressures. Tyrone at 8/1 think ill have a bit of that.

Difficulty in getting out of Ulster is a factor in Tyrone odds of 8/1. They have a potentially tricky fixture against Derry. Dublin and Kerry effectively have little competition in their respective provinces. Armagh, Donegal and Derry are all capable of beating Tyrone

What a win for the Dublin Hurlers today v Galway. FT Dublin 3-29 v Galway 0-19 It was 1-16 to 0-08 for Dublin at HT. Great performance and some excellent scores. Hopefully this season will see our Hurlers putting in some consistent performances in SHC. Atha Cliath Abú Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 16/01/2022 16:29:54 2395169 Link 2 |
That was most satisfying. Very impressive performance and grounds for optimism for the year if Mattie can get his best team out for the big games. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2556 - 16/01/2022 16:36:51 2395170 Link 2 |

Look, it was an experimental Galway team so in that instance the victory means nothing come championship, except a bit of confidence for the Dubs. The issue with the Dublin Hurlers is we need to try to win important Championship games and consistently. Until then, we will continue to be at the lower group of teams in Hurling. Great to win with such a high score all the same..... ;o) Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 16/01/2022 18:58:06 2395193 Link 0 |
Ah now Fionn. Hardly among the lowest! BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2556 - 16/01/2022 20:10:05 2395209 Link 0 |
Didnt say Lowest - I said Lower.... ;o) We are not in the Top 6 counties yet.... Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 16/01/2022 20:50:20 2395214 Link 0 |
Fantastic win for Dublin today. While I know they have a great record in Parnell Park (especially v Galway) the complete destruction of Galway makes it all the more impressive. Also Galway are trying to impress King Henry so it was a real super display. CiarraiMick (Dublin) - Posts: 3675 - 16/01/2022 21:53:45 2395222 Link 1 |
True and its not easydoback to back. A better Tyrone team did nt do it. After the league last year Tyrone were no hoppers by many hs posters. When I mentioned Tyrone among the top contenders I was met with "Tyrone have no hope". Dublin were always going to struggle last year but will be back with fire in the belly again.

Hiya Jimbo. Happy New Year. Hope you are keeping safe and well pal. A nice trip to Carlow in store this Saturday for the O'Byrne Cup Final, against the winners of this Wednesday's semi final match up of Kildare v Laois. Looking forward to it. Have to say, and I know a lot of us had previously predicted it - but Lee Gannon is defo looking the part so far. Really looking forward to seeing how he develops into the team. Great to see Shane Carthy back also. Always rated him as a player. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 17/01/2022 13:07:22 2395285 Link 0 |
Random question for those who may know. Is Cian O'Sullivan injured or has he retired from club football too? I haven't seen him feature for Kilmacud in their county final or Leinster club games to-date. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2040 - 17/01/2022 14:32:24 2395310 Link 0 |
Retired for good. You'd put the house on Crokes if they had him fit as centre half. Great player. Just did his business with no talk about it! BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2556 - 17/01/2022 15:54:16 2395334 Link 1 |
He was a class act. After all the commitment he gave for years, even playing for the club would have been pretty demanding. To think they're missing him and also likely missing Mannion for the rest of the campaign and are still favourites for the All-Ireland. They have a quality panel with great depth. Some of the lads who've come off the bench look every bit as good as those starting. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2040 - 17/01/2022 16:35:31 2395345 Link 0 |
Kilcoo are long odds on to lift the Andy Merrigan, hard to see past them. Dan_Toal (Leitrim) - Posts: 240 - 18/01/2022 10:33:17 2395399 Link 0 |
Michael Dara and Cian were struggling at club level with injuries at same time they stopped being first choices with county. They've a lot of mileage on board. Not sure about Connolly. Vinnies had their worst ever year at senior football so I'd imagine he'll be there to help them regain status unless he's away somewhere or genuinely finished.

MDMA is a good club nan but was struggling with injury. Some county players love their clubs and some don't care. The Ballymun lads were good clubmen and very few better clubmen than Kevin McManamon.
