Offaly combined schools won fairly handy vs North. 4-20 to 2-11.

Quote from Tayto

Seems the changes at minor have weakened the combined teams, also Fintans and Eoin lads missing probably doesn’t help.

I think we’ll be decent enough at minor this year anyway.

North squad missing a good few lads yesterday too. That's Offaly as a combined schools county, we are North, South, Fintans and Col Eoin.

Offaly schools didn't have any Colaiste Naomh Cormac lads i think . They didn't have Screeney on that Offaly schools team anyway

Quote from Tayto

Dont tell me Screeney is still in school

Leaving Cert this school year as far as i know. Was in 4th year 2 years ago in that minor final

Apologies i am wrong . I've just been told that he is in 1st year in UL so not in school

Talk that he is transferring from UL to DCU. Pretty sure they were full strength yesterday

Yes they've been in 3 senior cups i recent memory . They'd have plenty of hurlers . Joe Cannings nephew Jack went there . He won a minor All Ireland for Galway

Quote from Tayto

Was it not always a hurling & rugby school?

Ah probably not really a hurling school. Lads wouldn't go there boarding for hurling like a Flannans or Kierans traditionally. Lots of Tipp lads would have gone to Flannans. But lads would go to Roscrea boarding for Rugby
