Adult Hurling League 8 (AHL 8) 2023

Looks an interesting group. Will be interesting to see how this weekends fixtures pan out.

Vincents the favorites?

Portabello or balinteer.?

Portobello beat BSJ 1-24 to 2-10

Not may fixtures played last week it looks like.

Any good ties this weekend?

Portobello v Clondalkin a repeat of championship final in 2021, should be a cracker

Anything but. PB and Mearnógs putting up big scores. One would think the league decider will be 9th May when they meet.

Should be an interesting one alri...Mearnógs coming out of AHL9 undefeated and obviously improving. Portobello coming out of a league (AHL10) and championship double and obviously very strong for this level!

PB scored 10-22 😳😳😳

Surely they belong up in Division 4 or 5 if they're putting up scores like that

Against Crokes aswell

It was Crokes 4th or 5th team. So there is context. They look like they should be 1 or 2 divisions higher but not 4 or 5 yet.

3-13 to 1-09 at half time so it was closer than the scoreline suggests. Crokes ran out of puff in the second half against the younger legs of Portobello. Mearnogs shooting 32 points v Whitehall is some scoring! Should be a humdinger on 9th May when these two meet

Great to see Hurling doing okay in the South Inner City though

Alot of south inner city lads playing with them? 🤣

Yes, they are mainly lads from Coppers

Haha I suppose what I meant was there's no harm in another Hurling club growing within the confines of the city centre, regardless of who is playing with them. They do have underage structures in place AFAIK.

If they have underage structures fair enough, if another Realt Dearg i dont see any benefit.

I don't think they do...could be wrong. Theyve no underage teams in the juvenile leagues. Ranelagh gaels on the other hand seem to have a thriving underage.

Sorry I mixed the two up
