THERE’S A DUBIOUS reward in store for the winners of Saturday’s JJ Kavanagh & Sons Waterford senior football final.
Ballinacourty and Stradbally will face off at Fraher Field in Dungarvan on Friday evening (8pm) for county honours but the AIB Munster SFC quarter-final against Cork kingpins Nemo Rangers has been fixed for the same venue, on the following day, at 7pm.
Tight schedules have left provincial fixtures-makers with little or no room for manoeuvre and the winners of Sunday’s provincial clash will have to go again seven days later against Kerry representatives Legion or Dingle at the semi-final stage.
It’s far from an ideal scenario but surely there could be some room for leeway, especially when club players are crying out for games during the summer before facing into a packed schedule when the intercounty campaigns draw to a close.
With precious little recovery time, Ballinacourty or Stradbally will be ranked as outsiders to spring a surprise against Munster club specialists Nemo Rangers, who will have had a fortnight off since winning the Leeside silverware.
The lad is only interested in money. Golf is second fiddle now
@Fiachra Ahern Esq: did he tell you that himself?
@Fiachra Ahern Esq: Don’t believe that for a second… he has all the money in the world.
He desperately wants to win.
Another below average day at the office for the most overrated over hyped golfer of all time.
@Frank 0 Brien: The stats would suggest otherwise but in fairness your hate must be a better indicator of his golfing prowess.
@Frank 0 Brien: Boring Frank, boring and ill-informed.
@Frank 0 Brien: only golfer in the world that has been consistently in the top 10 of owgr for 10 years now. that’s hardly over rated now is it.
@Frank 0 Brien: 4 majors and he isn’t 30 yet , you my friend don’t have a breeze !
@Niall James Fergal McCormack: hard to see how he is going to win any more with putting and wedge play like we have seen in the last two years from him
@Jem Mehmet: He’s only seen to be over rated because people hailed him as “the next Tiger” which is a mantle anybody would struggle to live up to.
He may not be of the callibre of compettior of a Woods or Nicholas but he has already achieved a phenomenal amount in his career to date, especially compared to the average tour pro.
