2nd and 3rd should be on one side . Team to semi should have college or division draw
While I agree with a lot of your sentiment, Kissane has largely been a success with them, I think if memory serves me correctly he’s been involved with them 5 years or so now? And has overseen Eire Ogs progression to Senior ranks. Bar the top 3 not a whole lot between the rest of the sides at this level.Watched them twice on Rebels Online and they were muck both times. It’s no surprise both teams are where they are considering they play with fear, over coached and not knowing how to play outside of their system. How do these cowboy coaches convince players that this is the path to success I’ll never know.
I know it’s the same in hurling, that only makes it twice as bad! Team 2 (nemo) should be playing Team 3 (Barrs) in the football semi finals (if they get there). Instead we pander to the divisional sides and make sure they avoid playing team 1,Same draw in hurling, that's the way it always been
Quarter-finals: (a) 2 v 5, (b) 3 v 4, (c) 6 v Divisions / Colleges winner.
Semi-finals: 1 v (b), (a) v (c).
The best two teams in the group stages avoid each other till final, makes sense.
It's nearly all repeat pairings again . Plus it could be haven Barrs 5th trilogyI know it’s the same in hurling, that only makes it twice as bad!

"The village"I'd say before a ball was kicked today ,ye were just happy to get through. No one will give the village a chance but with Liam o Connell back and I see Cooke coming on after injuries...they might just rattle yere cage.
Funnily enough R&B I give ye a great chance of going all the way. Ye seems to have a nice mix between ballers and physical athletes (many of which are both). A backs-to-the-wall win like yesterday can drive a team on no end. Naturally I hope I’m wrong thoughI know it’s the same in hurling, that only makes it twice as bad!

Really? I think Nemo might beg to differ.Was in Coachford yesterday game over after 15 mins with the Barrs up 1-6 to a point ,Barrs play a good type of running game well capable of opening defences. Next game against Ballincollig will be hard and should we win that its our old friends again.That would be the final most footballs fans want but cannot get.
