early days still but with a month before the first game. what are the early feels from people on how it will pan out?
I recon that happened to Marion last time they came up to A1 (2012?).
Copped PAOC round 1 and lost convincingly.
Rolled for 70 twice while PAOC made 2 for 200.
Trinity however are a different beast.
Been on the charge since their introduction back in B3 all those years ago. It's a tight group that have an inflated belief after beating up against a number of other club's B and C grades over the years. The TOSSERs well and truly believe they are upto knocking off the top dogs, and they'll be setting themselves for this one.
By contrast, PAOC haven't won a round 1 game since back in 2016, and that was against Pembroke who finished outright bottom and got relegated without a win for the season. PAOC are historically slow starters, and with their footy lads again making the Div 1 Grand Final, it won't be a surprise to see another round 1 loss for the Reds.
