Replying To BarneyGrant: "There will be four serious teams in the semi finals, no matter who they are Crokes, Glen/Kilcoo, Corofin probably, and Dingle. Crokes/Dingle final!" I would agree on the first 4, don't rate Dingle myself can see Corofin getting to final handy enough. Other semi final will be a cracker if those teams meet. Glen/Corofin final for me.

They will be dependent of course on nobody - one body in particular! - not heading off for the Winter or otherwise disengaging. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2557 - 07/11/2023 15:39:38 2511960 Link

Staycity the dubs new sponsors. Know nothing about them. Jersey is nice I think. It has a collar and it's blue so sound. waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 15/11/2023 11:31:44 2513124 Link

Staycity offer ApartHotels primarily in about 13 European cities. Interesting sponsor which will have surprised a few people. They probably saw the huge Irish support at the rugby World Cup and want to publicise their business to the broader Irish public. At least the team will have somewhere to stay for training camps abroad. letsgetgoing (Roscommon) - Posts: 507 - 15/11/2023 12:25:14 2513150 Link
Preferred last Dubs jersey but its not bad.At least its blue and navy.I was never enamored with the white trimmed jersey.For me Dubs have to have navy in the jersey.I think the Dubs navy blue is fab and my 3 favorite kits are Down Dublin and Roscommon.

Interesting sponsorship... very much left field & I wouldn't have seen them as someone interested in the GAA. I see they've bettered the AiG deal... worth 1.1mil per annum apparently. Square_B (Leitrim) - Posts: 844 - 15/11/2023 13:22:19 2513165 Link
A cool 1.1 million a year in sponsorship if reports are to believed, nice, fair play to all involved. I always like to use our sponsors so ill check these lads out, guess i can finally switch my car insurance. Really like the new jersey, simple not to busy and the colour and trim is a nod back to the 83 team by the looks of it to me. Sort it out Santa.

Would have to find out more about the company before i be walking ad for them. Temple bar and build to rent is not tempting I have to say... BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2557 - 15/11/2023 16:46:57 2513211 Link

Crokes made hard work of that by all accounts. Almost lost a ten point lead, but pulled away again in end. Apparently the goal which I've not seen was comical. I thought they had gotten over those sort of head staggers. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 2557 - 19/11/2023 17:22:31 2513744 Link

I'd say they'll be happy enough! Onion_Sack (Dublin) - Posts: 203 - 19/11/2023 19:06:41 2513756 Link

Very unlucky not to get an All Star this year imo... Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3733 - 19/11/2023 20:31:20 2513768 Link

Great to get that sort of sponsorship again - well done to all those who worked on it behind the scenes. Hopefully all the elder statesmen stay on for another year. Sounds bites appear to be good anyway but fingers crossed.... The younger lads will defo be all the better after this year for sure, and a couple like CC will have the bit between their teeth next year imo.

I see the CCC of Dublin CB have awarded the Senior Football Div 1 League title to Boden. Cannot understand how Crokes couldnt field some sort of team, even if they wanted to rest their star players.... But anyway, all done and dusted now. If you refuse to play - the opponent gets awarded the victory. Congrats Boden. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3733 - 08/12/2023 12:38:09 2515994 Link
Shambles of a league run by Dublin GAA - it started in February ffs...still going in December. Most of the matches in past two months were conceded or walkovers. Fair play to Crokes, hopefully this will get the county board to sort it out bad.monkey (USA) - Posts: 4624 - 08/12/2023 14:04:13 2516018 Link

I heard Boden wouldn't move the game, and they didn't have to to be fair. but very close to the Leinster final too Kingcon (Dublin) - Posts: 14 - 08/12/2023 14:35:50 2516021 Link

Could easily have played it and used their squad. It's embarrassing. TheFlaker (Mayo) - Posts: 7896 - 08/12/2023 16:13:06 2516036 Link
