Did you get here yet?
Misty , strong wind towards Town goal.

We're going to bring home the SAM

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Champion The Wonder Horse

Pointing a 41m free from directly in front of the posts shouldn't be worth two points.

Down making good use of the two pointers six in total to lead 1-14 to 2-6 at half time. Roscommon had a penalty saved.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Sheedy

Down going ok so far, seem to have benefit of very strong wind in that first half, made good use of it to get the 2 pointers.

Ref not having a good game, Roscommon should've had a mark at the end, the black card was ridiculous and it seemed to be a soft penalty.

Milltown Row2

And the keeper was well off his line too

Yeah, mark at end.

Lad was clown trying to be hard man pushing and shoving when ball was gone. Silly alright but deserved for trying to be the hardman.

Penlty was 'soft' but he pushed him in back inside. No attempt to play the ball.

Down #10 is very fond of going to ground with a Swan dive.

Is he from Kilcoo by any chance?

Never a black card either.

We saw the effect of the goalkeeper in the other half and 3 up there, with a the turnover the Rossies got the ball up and an uncontested goal.

Good win for the rossies when you consider they were 7 points behind at the start of 2nd half. Roscommon 3-21 Down 1-20

Westmeath 0-18 Louth1-17

I think the new rules show 7 points ain't what it used to be.

Depends on the match. Armagh v Galway very different and low scoring affair.

Head still reeling from that game today.
Bedlam said Davy.
Was 3-18 to 1-14 in "old money" but Downs extra 2 pointers made it 7 pts margin instead of 10.
Great to see CiarĂ¡in Murtagh back and in mighty form .
Also returning Cian McKeon, Eddie Nolan and Shane Killoran.
Debuts for the 2 Lambes, Colm Neary and Pearse Frost.

The wandering goalie backfired spectacularly reminding me of a similar embarrassment in the U20 semi final in 2021.
Time for a no passing to the goalie at all rule to stop the sillyness

The 3 games on tv yesterday evening were just as bad as anything  from last year. It'll take a few years and more rule changes before we get an interesting game back again. It won't happen until all the current county players, managers, selectors, coaches and all the other parasites have left the scene and our youth are taught the  basic skills of  football once again. The Roscommon Down game was at least a good laugh. Anyone notice how most of our elite county players are unable to field a high ball? Or how they are unable to kick the ball over the bar from outside of 30 yards? The sight of Down defenders and the goalkeeper grappling around on the ground after a ball kicked in high was quite funny.
