The chalkie debate?is the tsdl not a good way to blood players?young?chalkie has too much influence in that squad and the tsdl in general.as a player,any club would dream to have him on and off the pitch.as for his legs, ya its natural for him to get slower we all do,but what he has upstairs makes up for many yards down.i know a few whipets who cant pass a ball.so we will end that debate for now.but what does interest me is a saints fan says he done them a favour after his honeymoon.could they not use some one from the youths bteam bench.does this show saints weakness in depth?just curious.

once heard(many moons ago), one of our(fairview) older players getting slagged about not being able to get from A to B as quick as what he used to be able to.
his answer was "who says i have to start at A???"
think that is what's called experience

I used wrong words in saying he done saints a favour
On the day saints were short 5/6 players and also had b team as well so obviously numbers were tight
As fir strength in depth I think saints are fine it's well known saints haven't been able to pick from a full deck so far this season for numerous reason ( holidays work etc) but I think from here on that should settle down now which will have a knock on effect for our b team who have struggled so far
As for the youths we are struggling( Celtic have no team) like all clubs because of rule change our youths very young. , too young for 1st team

hey republican just because he played professional football does not give him the right to start, hynes has scored in every game for Town this year and has great attitude, i hear rafter has a few pounds to lose yet before he can make an impact, this thing about chawkie been the best centre half in the country is nonsense, he is a great player alright but breen is better at the current time, chawkie had his day

**republican** · 01/10/2011, 10:28 PM

bilko i never said hynes wasnt a good player but if u wer the manager of the tsdl you would be startin rafter aswel. hynes has scored in most his games granted, but rafter scored 3 against saints in his last game for borris but breen wasnt playing but still thats a good hat trick you must admit 2 of the goals were top drawer.

**celticlads** · 01/10/2011, 11:14 PM

from what i hear jimmy hynes is doing most of his scoring from midfield which is even more impressive and to be totally honest i dont know rafter but i doubt very much jamie or any of the clonmel lads would swap hynes for any other player(striker) in south tipp. hynes is top class lads and i bet ye will all agree with me before the year is over. playing with a smaller league/club all his life has probably stopped him going on to better things.

Lads chalky has all his caps for a reason,whether the tsdl or anyone else has something to do with it,it doesn't matter,but there's a lot of people calling for someone else to get a chance,whether they
be from limerick,Waterford,clare,cork or Kerry n Tipperary,I see him playing few times and he's legs are gone IMO ,now I know the tipp town boys are going to tell me he go MOM in the last tournament he played,n I'm not doubting that,but lads in all fairness he's finished,

How is the lad finished in fairness???

St.Micks are MJC champions and have reached that last 2 fai finals with him playing 99% of there games
U haven't a clue,stop posting rubbish

decent squad. hard to believe that there is no place for alan leahy, tony scully among others when both colin bargary and conor kenneally , who are subs for their clubs are selected.

**SgtBilko** · 06/10/2011, 10:21 PM

tony scully has requested that he would not be selected for the coming year due to personal commitments

Pa Quinn (2), Michael Rafter and Declan Peters. Wasn't there but a friend from Cork told me TSDL led 2-0 at half-time, came back to 2-1 but Tipp finished very strongly. Said TSDL were very impressive.
