Re: Irish Nationals
Aye, Hynes is useful, he's a young lad too. I know he won on Fri. although I didn't see it.
Re: Irish Nationals
Semis are tomorrow night-no major surprises so far in the prelims.
Re: Irish Nationals
Low turnout this year due to a high number of lads gone pro and WSB and APB taking place at same time. Few injured aswel so lowest entry list in years.
