Dublin lost an All-Ireland Preliminary Quarter-Final to Leix, only a few years ago.

So the Kilkenny man thinks they won't win the All Ireland Final but they will draw instead! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2672 - 13/07/2023 16:08:13 2494169 Link 0 |

5 seasons ago. How far back do you want to go? Kilkennys minor team got knocked out by the same lads last year. Galways u20s got knocked out by Offaly this year. Or if its Senior only you are talking about Clare lost to Antrim more recently than Dublin losing to Laois. Only 2 years ago. I think its too hard to pigeon hole counties into tiers.

I see both Kilkenny and Limerick teams both travelling home after finals with hotel prices and availabily being a factor. No team banquets in Dublin. Is this going to start a trend. While it's not the only factor th point should be made hotel prices now especially Dublin are borderline criminal. Something should be done. Some hotels now quoting 1000 e for one night on busy nights. It is wrong. Ireland has a short memory! CiarraiMick (Dublin) - Posts: 4029 - 14/07/2023 10:50:01 2494287 Link 1 |

It is. They will be better next year. Their lads will be leaner and faster they have a good S and C man there.

All the subsequent major uprisings, from 1798 onwards, were led largely by the middle classes, not Irish kings or chieftains. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 16685 - 14/07/2023 11:07:50 2494295 Link 0 |

Completely agree. Different proposition next year. I'd imagine them, Cork and Limerick will come out of Munster.

Kilkenny always stay in the Citywest Hotel for big games in Dublin. They probably have it provisionally booked every year.

Think it's unavailable as it's housing Ukrainian refugees.

Think a problem with these banquets is a lot of hotels being used to house refugees..also both counties will make it back to home county in at most 2 hours..city west is definitely out.. CTGAA10 (Limerick) - Posts: 2576 - 14/07/2023 14:06:21 2494352 Link 0 |
