Depressing seeing those results last night. Tipp back in the all ireland with much of the team we beat last year. And Dublin into the leinter final.

Going with the best half of the u20 team on the senior panel has completely failed. Kelly, Screeny, Guinan all out with serious injuries and the others have put in a savage shift but look burnt out. No lessons learned from the u20 footballers at all.

we've missed a savage chance for a crack at KK for 3 in a row in a leinster fianl and potentially a rematch with Tipp. Will missing all that be all worth it if we beat Davys antrim by a point, no way will it. Those underage matches the last ferw years have comfortbaly been the most enjoyable offaly hurling days this century and we threw away a glorious chance. An absolute mess of a year if we're honest. The league was grand but APril - June is what counts and what people remember

Does anyone else feel for Ronan Flynn? An outstanding forward and very pacey who has been on this team the whole way up yet never gets a run. He was also junior A player of the year last year so why is he always being left on the long finger? I also believe it’s an absolute disgrace that none of the Ferbane/ Belmont minors were introduced to these squads. There was 1 introduced to u20 football but that was it… no hurling, yet they nearly completed a history making double last year. The likes of Rory Dunican seems a great hurler and a very skillfull one he would be a benefit to any team around. Also Andrew McEvoy a serious hurler who has serious strength on and off the ball. This is only to mention a few names while there are plenty more that are well capable but these players shone bright last year, a delight to watch coming from a bystander… yet no introduction to a poor u20 team this year. Could they have brought something to the table? I guess we’ll never know

Hi Ronan,

Welcome to the forum.

Frank.

Well done to the Premier U20s on going down to kk and giving the locals a trimming there. That completes the set for these lads after nailing the minor 3 years ago at the same venue. Incredibly Tipp have won 4 AIs in Nowlan Pk in 3 years!
We’ve won minor & U20 now against kk in their own patch, wouldn’t it be excellent if a senior ai between the 2 was played there giving us a chance to beat them at minor, U20, senior in Nowlan pk

Can ye do it in both codes at the same time? Do Tipperary not have a forum? Does your mother know you're online?

We were able to complete the minor/U20 set, it seems not everybody is able to manage that for some reason and of course we have a decent record in football too.

Of course we appreciate beating kk cuts the biffos to the core

Beating Kk cuts the biffos? How so? I think you might be misreading the room well done on winning , nice for the young lads to have some success before going into the senior ranks and gettin outclassed in munster and the young footballers struggling in division 4. If ye win nothing this year at least ye can look forward to next year celebrating the 10th anniversary of yer last munster title. Also offaly is half the size of Tipperary. I don't remember seeing you after the u20 all Ireland last year

“Misreading the room” eh? Not able to read at all in your case….far from being outclassed in Munster three of that team have helped us to qualify from it. A big contrast to being the second worst team in a shite Leinster!!
Ye celebrating the quarter of a century since ye won an AI (and a Leinster)? It’s 6 since we won and that’s far too long. The footballers are struggling, still have more AIs than some counties tho.

Yea and ye are twice the size of Offaly or is that who ye are competing with now? oh ye qualified from munster that's the new standard, qualifying from munster is the new winning in Tipperary.. tell me the last time Offaly and tipp met how did it go? Oh yes sure ye won the foot all all ireland 125 years ago, completely forgot that one

Is the GAA championship set up according to size of counties....didn't think so.
I presume that even in Awfully it’s still only the beginning of June, right? So getting out of the provincial is as far as any county has got so far .
Unless you just avoided the Joe McDonagh of course. Then you’re just OUT

how about we deal with the 3 recent tipp offaly meetings? All ireland victories shared and a 30 point beating in Tullamore 2 years ago. That correct? Our lads have minor AND U20 medals in that time.

You also probably forgot that it took ye nearly 85 years to win an AI. Ourselves & Limerick won THE FIRST TWO. And we’ve won one in EVERY decade of the GAA since

It's funny how ye have realised that ye are not competing with the very best anymore so ye are dropping to flag smaller counties who are now catching you in Hurling (give it a couple of years, we beat ye last year u20) and our footballers are now a big cut above ye, 2 Divisons of the league. So where to next? Maybe laois or Leitrim, coz of all "smaller" counties offaly is one you ain't gettin anything out of by slagging.. we know we're going the right way, tipp ain't goin anywhere I'm either code, probably continuing to drop.. how the "mighty" have fallen

Fair dues to Tipp, well done to them, they are great, everyone loves them and all that jazz.
Love to see them win the Senior Hurling and Tailteann cup, and Tipp water is great as is our de facto Taoiseach Mike Lowry, and Matty McGrath is such a strategic thinker, and I love Liam Sheedy (he's great altogether), Babs was hard done by in Offaly in my opinion.

I suppose I can understand why ya don’t want to deal with the last senior meeting (apologies for getting the score wrong, we actually won by 32 ).
The 7-38 by Tipp, equivalent to 59 points, is the highest score ever recorded in a SHC game. The aggregate score, 86 points in total, is also an all-time record.
And you don’t mention the minor this year either. Biffs doing the big score thing there too….Laois nearly equaling our margin….31, wasn’t it. That’s what ya get with a manager full of shitetalk on podcasts
Of course the Dubs beat ye easily in the U20, a Dubs team that was trimmed by a useless KK team in the final.

Finally the last team left, the seniors, scraped past Antrim at the end of May. Ye’ll have to change yeer name from Biffs to Mayflies.
