I wouldn't start him Hearne and Lawlor have formed a good partnership . Hearne gets through some work . Dee could be the experienced head we need in the last 10 minutes if he is it fit to play

Little off topic but would love to see a shake up in the actual set up of all ireland series . Formertownie (Wexford) - Posts: 291 - 22/05/2024 11:41:13 2546352 Link 0 |
I would say after Lee Chin, Hearne is the second name on team sheet every game. He is hurling out of skin in midfield this year. Past hurler (None) - Posts: 794 - 22/05/2024 11:54:25 2546360 Link 0 |
He's been great to be fair

I like the current format only I dont think its atall fair that the last team in munster dont have any threat of relegation hanging over them. Tipp should be made play loser of Carlow or Antrim in a neutral venue in my opinion and the loser is relegated.

It is good I've had it for a number of years. Only thing is Cairde only gives you 1 championship ticket. So if non chairde friends are going then you can't sit beside them. The tickets to be fair are always the best ones possible. In 2019 Leinster final Tony Doran was sitting in front of me and the Jacobs were all behind me so decent tickets! Another thing kids are entitled to one championship ticket too but not the All Ireland final. My 8 year old born in Dublin but Wexford mad would be heartbroken if he ever missed us in an AI final. For 2019 they used to ring if you booked tickets and the woman said on the phone I can have a 2nd ticket if I wanted. I doubt that would happen in an AI final tho WEXILE (Wexford) - Posts: 311 - 22/05/2024 12:17:37 2546368 Link 0 |
Yeah with the Leinster team given a home venue. If your not in 1A then a home venue to even it up a bit because that game could easily be a 30 point loss otherwise. Antrim or Carlow v Tipp at home might be a bit of contest. I know munster could complain that it's not fair but it's hardly fair that there is no relegation at all at the moment in Munster WEXILE (Wexford) - Posts: 311 - 22/05/2024 12:44:09 2546376 Link 0 |
I honestly dont think Tipp are a 30 point better team than Carlow or Antrim.

Probably not on amy given day but it's not inconceivable that they could put up a huge score on both of em if they had to. I mean we did it on Sunday. So could they but my point is they'd be less likely to do it in Carlow or especially Corrigan Park

Agreed, the winner of the Joe McDonagh should also enter the Leinster and Munster championship every second year. The Munster championship is a protected species! You can't criticise it and it's impossible to get into it or out of it. Would be some boost for hurling in Leinster if Wexford and Dublin made the Leinster final.

Another point is that munster only have 4 round Robin games leinster have 5 . U can beat on sbout contest and competitiveness but its still an extra game where you have to be onyiur game no matter what the opposition its still championship and it takes its toll Formertownie (Wexford) - Posts: 291 - 22/05/2024 14:36:44 2546417 Link 0 |
Well whatever about Tipp being how much better than Carlow, showing highlights of that game again the other night rather than showing 10 minutes of Wexford v Carlow is a crime against humanity. ExiledInWex (Dublin) - Posts: 1254 - 22/05/2024 14:47:53 2546419 Link 0 |
I see there is no tickets left for Arran De Gras stand . Could be a huge crowd there on Sunday Afinestick96 (Wexford) - Posts: 350 - 23/05/2024 08:10:12 2546506 Link 0 |
I do expect us to travel in big numbers to be honest. We generally do to Nowlan park and there's a sniff of some success. I think we can outnumber the cats in the stand.

Unlikely lads but I bought an Ardan breathnach ticket by mistake all my mates are in Ardan de gras does anyone want to buy it? 20€ ChinCanHurl (Wexford) - Posts: 292 - 23/05/2024 11:05:38 2546542 Link 0 |
Could see us bringing 8-10,000… think it would be a different story if it was on RTE rather than GAAGO.

Really hope so! This is the first time since 2019 where Wexford fans can really get behind the team in a Leinster semi final (Covid years 2020 no crowd and 2021 only small crowd allowed in Croker). Id love to here us really get behind the lads. We seen the difference support made to Clare in 2022 the noise was deafening near the end.
