The Kerry Minor Hurlers down to play Wicklow this Saturday in Austin Stack Park in the All Ireland Minor B Hurling Quarter Final, but due to Ballyduff v Causeway in the Senior Championship which is Fixed for Sunday neither Causeway or Ballyduff minors will be Freed to play in case they get injured. This is a Complete Joke depriving young talent of the chance of playing for their County. Yet again the County Board Show their Organising skills or lack their of for Hurling

After their success last year its time for the county board to give them the respect of footballers

...But why are the minor hurling management stading for it?? Do you mean to tell me that if this was football it would be allowed to happen??? JNo point in blaming the County Board they are a shower of dimwits when it comes to Hurling in the County... Minor hurling management should walk IMO

That is unbelievable to see something like this happen. I can't for the life of me understand how its happening from either side.Surely the clubs involved want to see there players playing for Kerry in an All Ireland series and surely the county board could have come to some arrangement to play the game the following week or whenever.You would have to throw the majority of blame back at the county board though.
Agree with lobitin that there is no way the minor management should stand for this.How can hurling progress in the county if this kind of thing happens.

After the game last Saturday after the game it was rumoured that the replay would be on Tuesday next,I thought this was to accommodate the Kerry Minors game which made sense,they play mid week club championship games in other counties so why not the same down here? But now it has been fixed for Sunday at 6pm,All Ireland Semi on TV as well why not have it on at 7pm give players and supporters a chance to watch the game.
If this kind of thing is happening with the minor hurlers what is the point of having a Hurling Officer in place? Isn't one of the major roles the Hurling Officer has is to act as a go between the hurling clubs and county board?

If the Kerry minor hurling management stand for this it is indicative that they couldn't care less about hurling in the county only their own ego's. Jobs for the boys... tickets in their pockets. It's an absolute disgrace. Any individual involved in Hurling in this County must get extremely disheartended with crap like this...Why give all the voluntary hours if at the end of the day your own County Secretary and Board give you 2 fingers... I think its about time that the Hurling Clubs in Kerry actually paid attention to who they are voting for at congress...

This is a Complete Joke depriving young talent of the chance of playing for their County. Yet again the County Board Show their Organising skills or lack their of for Hurling How many players are effected? There might be very few. Keith Carmody from Causeway is the only one I can think of. Is David Goulding from Ballyduff still minor? I do not understand the rush with the Ballyduff v Causeway quarter final replay. The semi finals are a few weeks away. And as someone else said a midweek fixture would solve the dilemma. Cork and Dublin often play club championship games midweek. The Kerry minor management urgently need to get Michael Burns Dr Crokes into the panel now that the minor footballers are out. Very talented hurler. Minor football club championship might be a factor but the co board should be flexible on this if needs be!

Is it not a little unfair to be promoting the idea of getting new players into the squad 4 days before they line out to play for their County? These lads have been training since February, two and three nights a week, giving their all to get a place on the panel. I agree that Michéal Burns is a very talented hurler, so are Killian Spillane, Barry O'Sullivan, Matthew Flaherty and Cathal Bambury to name a few. These lads made their choice at the start of the year, and it wasnt to play hurling.
I genuinely feel that the lack of support they get is obvious - I checked the Kerry GAA website this morning and there is no sign of a Panel - or any article about the match (open to correction !! as I dont have time to trawl the whole site but thought it might feature in their News Section). This is a bit slack for an Inter County Match happening tomorrow.
I wish the best of Luck to Pat Ryan,Ian Brick and the other Management and to the lads who will line out tomorrow. Some of us do appreciate your commitment.

Jack Savage and Kevin Shanahan won a minor championship with St. Brendans hurling club when they were under 16 so they could add something to the panel

Play Meath now the the semi indeed Kilgarvan, Kenmare and Dr Crokes lads played a big part. When Kerry hurling was at its strongest in the early 1990s key men on the team were from these clubs plus Martin McKivergan from Austin Stacks

Some of us do appreciate your commitment. a few of these lads haven't hurled in a while. Only Burns hurled regularly in recent times so that's why I had him in mind. Looks like Kerry have a decent side and are going to stick with what they have had all year which is fine too. Hope they can win the All Ireland B. Be a nice fillip

I would have to say that the 2nd half display by the Kerry minor team was probably the best seen for many a long time by any Kerry side. From keeper Murphy to captain Wallace plus the 2 subs introduced, it was an outstanding performance. Just a single point ahead after playing with a strong breeze in the first half, Kerry conceded three early long range points and looked dead and buried. But they dug deep, and just as they did a week earlier against Wicklow, they dominated the remainder of the game. Their discipline was superb, while the tackling and defending was top drawer stuff. Brilliant all round performance . Well done to everyone. Pride is being restored to Kerry hurling!!!

the quarter finals of the co minor hurling championship are on Sunday. Ideal games to keep lads sharp for the final in a few weeks. difficult for the Kerry minor management to get collective training but they have the work done earlier in the year and club hurling now is maybe the best thing to keep sharp for the final plus it means the club players are not denied summer hurling

I heard Kerry minor footballer Barry O'Sullivan from Dingle was outstanding for Kilmoyley against Causeway. Pity he couldn't have been freed up for the Kerry minor hurlers a few weeks back when it was obvious he was falling down the pecking order with the footballers. South Kerry have a decent side. I expect the M Burns in the match report is Michael Burns, Kerry minor footballer. Kenmare won the minor 2 or 3 years ago with what effectively a south Kerry selection so plenty of hurlers in south Kerry. I would have expected defending champions Lixnaw to have fared better against Ballyduff. Under age hurling is strong in Lixnaw at present

All-Ireland MHC titles for Kerry and Mayo 07 September 2013
Kerry defeated Meath to claim the All Ireland MHC B title at NenaghKerry and Mayo were crowned All-Ireland MHC 'B' and 'C' champions respectively this afternoon.
In Nenagh, Kerry withstood a late Meath rally to prevail on a 1-19 to 3-9 scoreline. Jack Fagan's goal from long range had the Royals 1-0 to 0-2 ahead after five minutes, but the Kingdom recovered impressively to lead by 1-12 to 1-5 at the break.
The Munster side had powered into a seemingly unassailable 1-18 to 1-6 lead when Jack Regan netted a 48th minute penalty for Meath. Regan raised another green flag from a free near the end, but Kerry held on for victory.
In the All-Ireland MHC 'C' final at Ballinamore, Mayo were always in control against Monaghan, eventually running out 1-15 to 0-8 winners. With their senior and minor footballers both preparing for All-Ireland finals on September 22, Mayo fans will be hoping it's the first of three national titles to come to West this month.
Great win and another minor title. Some good young players on show once again. Again is kerry are to push on there going to have to get out of the B grade.

At the time the minor panel was being pulled together they were involved with CLub hurlling and couldn't give a comittment. They were then informed as they wouldn't give a comittment early on they would not be considered.

This was a good win for Kerry. Unlike the under 21 B this was a meaningful competition with plenty of competitive games. Kerry played a nice brand of hurling throughout the competition and showed good team spirit. Good to see players from Killarney, Kilgarvan and Kenmare feature in the final too.
I believe a good few of the panel are underage next year. I wonder are they capable of having a cut off playing munster minor? They would need the likes of dual players like Michael Burns and Barry O'Sullivan on board if they were attempt it.

The minors have reentered the Munster championship for next year. With 4 Kerry schools playing Kerry colleges this year and on the back of the B success of the last few years maybe Kerry could pull a surprise or 2 next year

The fact 4 Kerry schools played in the Munster championship will be a help, (more over the fact 3 of them were Tralee schools) as players are playing at a time of the year they havent been in the past. The way i think the B championship should be done to promote hurling would something like this. Kerry play in the Munster championship and if they dont make the S/F final they play in the B championship. Mayo & Roscommon from Connacht. From Ulster Derry, Down and Armagh, unless one of them make the Ulster final. In Leinster Kildare, Wicklow, Carlow, Westmeath, Meath and Laois the same if the dont make the Q/F they go into theB championship. Same thing with the Under 21s. There would be more teams meaning more games at a higher level
