Is there anybody from Kildimo on the panel. They are meant to be deadly

The reason why there is no one on from Askeaton is they were asked but never turned up. there are only 3 from Shannonside and if you are really getting into it there are 6 from Rathkeale. If players dont bother turning up for the Oscar traynor you have to pick players then that are interested.

Maybe only the 2nd time the forum has been interestin all season, at least Kildimo are an interestin topic of conversation anyway!! I don't think many of their players like to play on that pitch either, but they're 'stuck' with it. Not a bad side IMO, not world beaters either tho...

Don`t think anyone at the club is sour over having no players on the Desmond league squad, Maurice Carrig was asked but didn`t go because he was leaving for Australia. To be honest with you I don`t think there is any benifit to having players on the squad so I don`t see it as a problem having no players on it.

There was 4 Shannonside players on the origional squad, probably 2 deserving of a place.

Glin have the county football final next week I think, so it`ll be a big ask for them to beat Castleisland. I think Broadford and Shannonside will be very tight.

Ya I thought Shannonside would challenge this year especially when they were finished with the GAA so early. Are they missing a few or what kind of team have they?

**Ask me tom** · 09/11/2009, 2:39 PM

They're a pretty good side but i do't think its helping them that they have to play in the hell hole that is Borrigone. A farmers field would be better than that thing.

**Hairy Legs** · 09/11/2009, 5:34 PM

Rovers have a tough fixture against Rineanna, they seem to be a decent side. Rathkeale are hurling again this Sunday, and glin are out in the football so it will be tough for them missing players. Newcastle West and Abbey should be ok.
In the league Askeaton will see off Ballingarry and I will go for a draw in Broadford

NOW, now ask me tom it was not too long ago when Askeaton was one of the worst pitches in the desmond league.

**Ask me tom** · 09/11/2009, 6:45 PM

At least it was flat sky blue, and the point I`m making and have made on this thread before is that with all the grants given out over the last few years a club in the league as long as Foynes could and should have developed facilities.
