Outdoor events limited to 500 people due to covid-19
GAA have a choice so:
- Cancel competitions completely
- Suspend for possibly later in 2020 or even until 2021
- Play behind closed doors
- Play but limit crowd to approx 400 people

Really looking forward to this, 2 weeks out from the Semi Final against Galway. As regards player availability, unfortunately Dan McCarthy did the cruciate, very hard on him and a big loss. Donal O’Sullivan still seems to be out (as far as I know) with that injury that was keeping him out in March, another big loss. The likes of Fergal Barry and Jack Kennelly who were out injured for the Munster Final could play a part now all these months later. Galway are strong with an excellent middle 8 especially so it should be a great battle.

Perhaps some of our more clued in hurling brethern could clarify. Hugely important player. |

Perhaps some of our more clued in hurling brethern could clarify. Hugely important player. Kilgarvan played in the quarter final and semi final of the intermediate hurling championship and he did not feature in either, if he was fit he would have been in the thick of that hurling hurling action. He is a super hurler He didnt play in the football either last week v cordal in the EK championship So it doesnt look good, a year out might do him no harm, come back fresh and injury dealt with Himself and Dan McCarthy big losses to the under 20s |

Only change maybe putting Dylan Casey to full back with David Mangan in the corner - Alan Dineen is hugely promising but still quite young I think |

It appears the GAA will have full responsibility for their senior inter-county games should the Government agree the country moves to level five lockdown in the next nine days.
A report in the Irish Daily Mail on Friday claimed senior inter-county competitions will be permitted to be staged even with the strictest restrictions in place. It highlights that the matches were given a reprieve in Chief Medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan’s letter to Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly seven days ago.
That is contrary to the Living With Covid roadmap where no games or events are permitted under rule five. However, Dr Holohan and the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET) have made an exception for “professional/elite/senior inter-county/horse racing behind closed doors”.
However, it's probable that level five restrictions will force a suspension of under-age fixtures. The U20 All-Ireland football semi-finals are down for decision next Saturday and the final set to take place the following weekend, while the U20 hurling and both minor championships are due to run concurrently with the senior inter-county championships.
On Saturday, GAA director of club, player and games administration Feargal McGill said the association were planning for all league games to be played behind closed doors. That is despite crowds currently being permitted in the six counties by the Northern Ireland Executive.
“Crowds are allowed in the North, I’m not sure if that will continue to be the position,” he told RTÉ’s Saturday Sport.
“But we have taken the position that for the Allianz Leagues they will be behind closed doors regardless of whether they’re in the North or the South.”
McGill added that it’s all but certain the GAA won’t be able to grant any postponements in the league.
As the Irish Examiner highlighted last week, only 11 of the 47 Liam MacCarthy and Sam Maguire Cup matches can be postponed due to the tight 50-day schedule.
Asked about Fermanagh’s difficulties ahead of facing Clare in their Division 2 game in Ennis this coming weekend, McGill said they had not yet received a request from Fermanagh to put off the game.
Meanwhile, the Cork-Kerry Munster SFC semi-final in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on November 8 will be shown on RTÉ2. The national broadcaster will launch its live Championship coverage this Thursday where it will announce the Cork-Kerry clash will feature among its 18 exclusive games.
Elsewhere, a ruptured Achilles’ tendon means Niall Kelly is out of Jack O’Connor’s Kildare panel for the Allianz League and Championship. The Athy forward picked up the injury in his club’s senior final win over Moorefield last Saturday week and has already had an operation.

In the first half we played a sweeper so our number 6 Dylan Casey was sweeping and in the second half when a forward was brought on for the corner back, Casey went to corner back while Horan stayed at centre back. He was wing back for St Kierans in the Co Championship and he plays midfield for his club. |

It’s being reported that Galway u20’s could be without three players on Sat., due to Covid. Apparently, their club, Moycullen, has some positive test issues that rule them out. Very disappointing for them, if true.

Galway should seek a postponement of inter county games for a few weeks. It is unfair some countries will be under strength for the championship. Its turning into a farcical at this stage. Either let teams be prepared or cancelled the championship altogether.

The whole thing is in danger of being a farce really. It could be Kerry next time out who could be missing a dozen players out.

However, the way things are at the moment, games really need to get played at the earliest opportunity. It's tough on Galway alright but the competition might not conclude at all if there are any further delays. |

It doesn’t feel that hard to postpone for a week or two. |

Any idea on changes for this game? Dan McCarthy gone so will be changes in the backs and possibly changes in the forwards depending on form in championship etc.
Looking forward to watching this!

Except that by then the whole place might be shut down again. And if not, maybe some other players are out sick at that stage. You can't really set a precedent like that, no more than you can for injuries or nothing will ever get played. Different if a whole squad is nobbled of course. |

I have no sympathy with Moycullen and the Galway teams. Moycullen won the Galway Senior county championship and did not follow the procedures to avoid covid. It is just a reminder that poor behaviour is not worth the rick and also they are unnecessarily putting extra work on the medical front line staff.

I think it’s a sign of the times that less than 48 hours before an all Ireland semi final and no talk about the actually activities on the pitch .. what will the team be? Who is in form? What are the key match ups?
This for me highlights why the match shouldn’t go ahead .. the goodness is gone out of this for me. Galway will be under strength, players will probably be preparing in semi isolation traveling on their own, not even sure about being together in the dressing rooms beforehand. It’s a pity as this would have been a cracking match in normal circumstances... two really good teams I just feel the importance is gone from this match due to the external environment.
