Stupid post.
If Brosna Gaels and Shamrocks took hurling seriously, they should be established senior b sides.

Brosna Gaels absolutely take their hurling seriously. Unfortunately numbers dictate that we’re not ready to compete with ...

Limerick for me.

Offaly as a small, dual country with a recent history of little success tends to have small support.
I’d hope for an improved Offaly crowd on recent offerings but, given the above, and that Cork will be heavy heavy favourites, I think we’ll be outnumbered 6/7 to 1 easily.


So if Cork bring 35k ...

Is the Down game fixed for Tullamore next Saturday?

we win our 2 games and we go in to preliminary all Ireland quarter final against one of the Joe McDonagh teams. A win there would set up us then for an Ireland final on the back of a 3 game winning streak.

Far better I think than a potential heavy ish defeat to galway in Leinster final ...

remember we lose to wexford and it a joe mcdonagh trap door game against kildare in newbridge. it could all go wrong. equally we might be in the leinster final. biggest game in 20 years.


The chances of us qualifying for a Leinster Final are remote.

Among many things we need to happen ...

Fully agree. And a great motivational game for us too.

Just to be clear, I’m not advocating for dual players at county level. The point I’m making is essentially in response to whenever we have a poor result, the inevitable response is what’s going wrong with Offaly and everyone from county board to team management get the blame.

But the reality is ...

Think Joe Furey only joined the football panel after the hurlers were out of the championship

Similar to Marcus dalton - think he joined the u20 hurlers a couple of years ago after the footballers went out.

A couple of the minor hurlers joined the football squad last year after the hurlers went ...

Just a few points on this one and coming from a place of being heavily involved in both hurling and football from go games over the past few years up to currently u14. Also have a peripheral involvement with the Faithful Academy set up.

I’m also equally passionate about hurling and football with ...

That was tough ,

I know expectations weren't that we were going to put on a show v Dublin

Nothing went right , passing , control , rising the ball

Very tough for a young team to be beat by that amount at times they looked like they would kick on but dublins puck out killed us and then the ...

Team v Kildare in 2025 division 3 league final:

Offaly: Paddy Dunican; Lee Pearson, Rory Egan, Aidan Bracken; Cormac Egan, John Furlong, Daire McDaid; Jack McEvoy, Jordan Hayes; Kyle Higgins, Cathal Flynn, Keith O'Neill; Dylan Hyland, Jack Bryant, Shane Tierney. Subs: Ruairi McNamee for Hyland 68 ...

I listened to Paul Rouse talk about this on the Irish Examiner football Podcast. He said that there was apathy in Offaly towards the football team because the best players in the county were not on the panel. I think he is fairly on the money with that


Paddy Duncan, John Furlong, Cathal Flynn ...

The only positive out of today is that it was in Tullamore and we saved on fuel instead of driving to Portlaois……….

Well done to all involved. Plenty of things to work on....but getting a win like that is great for morale to kick the year off. Great building block. Hopefully they can progress with this.


4 point win over meath

Are Offaly particularly weak or is this a good meath team?


I was at both ...
