not exactly the strongest of teams is it?
Can some one please tell me how there are a number of girls in the ireland A squad from leinster who are not in the leinster team? Is there any structure to womens irish and provincial squads?? Really seems abit all over the place!!
who would you include/leave out?
What no Glennanne girls!!!!!!!
wouldn't exactly have put budd, costigan and walker down as top leinster players..where are the Ireland 'A' girls?
Go on the Dolan!!
Walker not a top Leinster player? She's top scorer in Leinster so far this season, and thats from midfield, including a hat-trick against pembroke lastweek. I think her place in the squad is fully deserved.
Andy
corinthians didnt play pembroke last week.
All the ireland 'A' girls are still u-18.
goal-scoring isnt the only skill required by a hockey player
It wasn't a hat-trick against pembroke!! it was alex. But she has put away some lovely goals this year.
Go on the walkz!
Yes, goal scoring isn't the only thing required from a hockey player but it can make a player. She's taller and stronger than most so her reach and power make her trodd on the little scrawney skilled types. I guess she's the female stephen butler in that sense!
she's also got the right attitude which makes a change from the typical divas that go with this sport!
If Kate and Smithers didn't leave the country, it'd be the railway team!!
bit like the mens being Glennane...
the female stephen butler??how many caps has she?there cant be any comparison there
i hope eimear fitzsimons gets plenty of game time-by far the better goalie despite her low profile
ciara murphy from trinity should be on the team
sure look at ian hamilton and barnes up north, they just score a ton of goals.thats what gets them their starting places!
also seems like neputism and being in the "right" clubs will get you into representative teams.
where's shauna frey these days?she's a top keeper!if eimear fitzsimons is far better why isn't she involved in the irish set-up?
walker is not the only one able to score goals
"ciara murphy from trinity should be on the team"
she is playing for connacht
Yeah because she is not selected for leinster like half the connacht team. Learn the facts then post comments!!!
"Yeah because she is not selected for leinster like half the connacht team. Learn the facts then post comments!!!"
Learn the facts indeed...
Ciara is from Galway and has played Connacht underage and Senior for YEARS and YEARS.
God this site does attract some Neanderthals.
(feeling a bit silly now I bet?)
she wasnt at leinster trials. she has always played for con. unlike most of the con players who are from leinster.
"Yeah because she is not selected for leinster like half the connacht team. Learn the facts then post comments!!!"
how ridiculous. Arguments about leinster players in the connacht team are absurd, all without exception could have been selected onto leinster this year if they wanted, most played for galway clubs before moving to dublin. The eligibility rules are the same as anywhere else. Pointeless gripe.
Who is Stephen Butler? has he ever played internationally? what club is he in?
few of them played for galway before or connaucht. shauna doyle barbara fitzgerald susan ryan hilda maguire to name a couple. would these people make the leinster squad? probably not
barbara fitz and susan ryan HAVE represented connacht before
would they make the leinster squad? look at the current squand and ask yourself that honestly!
just wanna say while I agree it may not be the strongest team ever I wish the girls the Best of Luck over the weekend.
They all deserve their place as they've obviously given up their time to trial so good luck girls..Do Leinster proud!!
