Replying To ORIELMAN85: "I reckon you would be green enough to believe what you see in these games are what you will see when coaches get teams ready for the championship. Cop on. Coaches coach and games are played how coaches want." What are you on about ? Did you even read what the games were about ? The games were specifically for the everyone to see all the proposed rule changes in action. At congress next month all rule changes will be voted on. Those they pass will come into effect at club and county in 2025. There's you on some rant about something else. Whatever the rule changes coaches will adapt to accordingly veterngaa (Monaghan) - Posts: 644 - 19/10/2024 08:22:22 2575768 Link

Every single one of them proposed rule changes are a cop out. No addition at all Monaghan_football (Monaghan) - Posts: 24 - 19/10/2024 11:46:05 2575796 Link
Replying To currinman: "Junior finals weekend.. Aghabog v Toome league final Drumhown v Eire OG Championship final Intermediate relegation Harps v Clones Blackhill v Emyvale.. Thoughts on this weekend games?" Aghabog Drumhowan Clones Blackhill Junior league is hard to call. Wonder how much interest Harps will have MrPBoylan (Monaghan) - Posts: 203 - 19/10/2024 12:11:16 2575801 Link
Replying To MrPBoylan: "Aghabog Drumhowan Clones Blackhill Junior league is hard to call. Wonder how much interest Harps will have" Clones and blackhill win leaves those two + harps on 4 points. I would say the harps will have a lot of interest in getting a win. farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 64 - 19/10/2024 12:31:26 2575804 Link

Replying To farneygael3: "Clones and blackhill win leaves those two + harps on 4 points. I would say the harps will have a lot of interest in getting a win." With the harps score difference they would be more or less safe bar a big loss? Blackhill would be down unless they won big. My maths could be wrong MrPBoylan (Monaghan) - Posts: 203 - 19/10/2024 18:30:22 2575851 Link
Not a bad weekend for toome. They must be a bit disappointed but fra mcphillips has proven now he has what it takes to win at all levels in Monaghan. I could see him on the back room team with Monaghan soon and then maybe get the main job in the next two years? MonGaa123 (Monaghan) - Posts: 17 - 19/10/2024 22:11:13 2575888 Link
Replying To currinman: "Junior finals weekend.. Aghabog v Toome league final Drumhown v Eire OG Championship final Intermediate relegation Harps v Clones Blackhill v Emyvale.. Thoughts on this weekend games?" Just coming on late to this post. Toome have won. Drumhowan to win the junior championship. Don't know how they're not senior. I think harps might beat clones by 2 points and I think Blackhill will have too much hunger over Emyvale. All tight games though and there won't be much to separate them. Drumhowan will have Monday booked off work I would think MonGaa123 (Monaghan) - Posts: 17 - 19/10/2024 22:23:07 2575889 Link

Replying To ORIELMAN85: "Coming on late! Obvious from your post, where you were coming from." I'm not saying all these games won't be tight. I actually think the junior final should be a good game but can only see drumhowan winning. I've been at 3 of their games the year and their pace, power and athleticism is a step above eire og. I wonder will they take Monday and Tuesday off work ? MonGaa123 (Monaghan) - Posts: 17 - 20/10/2024 09:00:53 2575913 Link
Wasn't at the junior league final but aghabog seem to be flying early doors but toome reigned them in, scoring a late goal to win. Fair play to them, small pick, down a key player and they got the job done. However i would suspect they'll struggle next year but that shouldn't take away from their win. Poor enough year for the bog, wilting in the crunch games. I fancy drumhowan later. 222 (UK) - Posts: 804 - 20/10/2024 10:46:04 2575920 Link

I could see him on the back room team with Monaghan soon and then maybe get the main job in the next two years?" He left killanny a senior club to take over toome a junior club at the start of the year so I'd question both his ambitions and motives as a manager above all else …… mick2007 (Monaghan) - Posts: 531 - 20/10/2024 11:58:58 2575932 Link

Replying To Monaghan_football: "Every single one of them proposed rule changes are a cop out. No addition at all" The standard and Scarcity of refs is poor enough as it is without bombarding them with more rules….i would fear for the club scene if these rules are passed…. mick2007 (Monaghan) - Posts: 531 - 20/10/2024 12:05:51 2575935 Link
Replying To mick2007: "He left killanny a senior club to take over toome a junior club at the start of the year so I'd question both his ambitions and motives as a manager above all else ……" Absolutely… never heard of a manager leave a club after they bring them senior … surely you'd want to challenge yourself! veterngaa (Monaghan) - Posts: 644 - 20/10/2024 12:43:03 2575951 Link
