It's more than a numbers game you need quality is well.. however the fact is only for a recent dip into the transfer market the united parishes wouldn't have won the last 2 county titles despite all their numbers…..

It's definitely not just a numbers game, look at the spread of different winners before the two Hughes brothers and then Rory Beggan came along.. the pair of lads are just a different level in terms of physicality and skill than everyone else in the county - only McManus who's a generational talent and a physical specimen himself really challenged them for about 10 years there but now they're starting to slow down Ballybay managed to pip them. I can see Scotstown falling back into the pack over the next few years when the boys inevitably walk away. Again if it was just numbers and parish size then a few of their near neighbours would be competing too, but there's just too many poorly run clubs around them to challenge them for now.

I believe Monaghan would be one of the few counties able to follow this due to the size. It's a bye law which is generally used for U18s... it's not a general GAA rule. You would advocate for a the Hughes brothers to be brought up to Threemilehouse when they were children, with no attachment there and Kilmore training grounds 3 minutes drive away and them attending school in Urbeshanny in Scotstown. You believe they should have played for Seans? You are that bitter thats what you want.. veterngaa (Monaghan) - Posts: 802 - 14/07/2025 16:52:28 2625679 Link 0 |
