Ollie Bolger still starting for cushinstown. Some testament to the man he must be 48. Wexfordgaa (Wexford) - Posts: 302 - 05/07/2024 11:51:47 2557042 Link 0 |

Watched the Shels v Harriers game. Shels were that bit better. Sean Keane Carroll and Cian Doyle caught some great balls in the first half which set them up for there running game. Martin Byrne back involved with them. Harriers battled hard were 3 points up into the second half but soft goals were the killer. Podge Farrell done well up front but there main men didn't hurl enough to win it. Conditions didn't help either team. Harriers still might come strong in the championship WexMurph (Wexford) - Posts: 225 - 05/07/2024 21:59:11 2557118 Link 0 |

Went to the game in the park last night and it was a really good first half with the harriers looking sharp but they fell apart in second half and conceded a soft goal. Conor Hearne was superb. wexfordwin (Wexford) - Posts: 178 - 06/07/2024 07:42:03 2557148 Link 0 |
I wouldn't say there is anything's wrong with Oulart. They got relegated three years ago and I know they came back up straight away, but they still would be well below Anne's, Gorey, Shels etc. So it's probably just where they are at. They have some great underage teams coming through so they will greatly improve in the next few years.

They've a good few injuries at the minute. And the new format means that results now don't matter.

Agreed at 35 mins gone it was 1-10 to 11 and Oulart played relatively well in the first half. Dee and Liam Og stepped up big time after that, Cillian Byrne and Andrew Moran were impressive also. Simon Roche is a big loss for Oulart, I do think in Group 1 it will be between them and Barntown for the relegation spot. OpenStandWall (Wexford) - Posts: 138 - 06/07/2024 15:02:35 2557208 Link 0 |
Hearne was fantastic alright. Felt bad for the young keeper. It was an extremely costly blunder. Harriers had no bench though which was the difference. Doylerwex (Wexford) - Posts: 3064 - 06/07/2024 15:40:14 2557216 Link 0 |
I wonder are we looking to emulate Kilkenny TOO much by adopting their championship structure when they haven't won an All Ireland in nine years, which would be a famine for them. The truth is, there is no jeopardy for 80% of our championship now, not exactly the cut and thrust young lads need to make themselves as hurlers. beano (Wexford) - Posts: 1444 - 06/07/2024 17:22:05 2557239 Link 1 |
It occurred to me last night that we should probably be playing 70 minute club games.

Think we'd be better off with the following club championship: ElGranSenor (Wexford) - Posts: 342 - 06/07/2024 21:29:59 2557294 Link 0 |
Paudie Foley a huge loss for Crossabeg, not having a player of his quality would be a huge blow to any of the twelve 12 clubs but it hits Crossabeg even harder ElGranSenor (Wexford) - Posts: 342 - 06/07/2024 21:34:23 2557296 Link 0 |
How do you think Ferns will cope without Eoin Murphy and Dermot Doyle? Two very big players in recent seasons. I agree with you about Gavin Bailey but I was more surprised Eoin Murphy didn't get an into the Wexford panel this year, I've been hugely impressed with him, he seems to have been discarded based on a poor display against Clare in the league last year when most were poor. Maybe he was asked in but declined due to travelling I don't know but he's a tidy hurler.

Looking at some of the results across the grades I don't think I've ever seen as many teams getting beaten by as much in first round games. tearintom (Wexford) - Posts: 1408 - 06/07/2024 22:03:55 2557303 Link 0 |
This is the way the system should be but I think that it was put forward a few years ago and clubs voted it down. It's also obvious that the years of having 8-10 clubs who could win senior hurling is over. Realistically it's between 6 and the football is between three or maybe four at a push.
