NFL Division 1 2019 Dubs again?

[An Fhairche Abu]

I had expected to see Cunnigham get a run in the league this year after playing very well for the Juniors last year and being in the overall Galway setup during the year. As his clubman said there if he's not up to it then fine but give the chance in from the start at least.

Cunningham looked lively when he came on last week, he deserves a chance at this stage. Don't know what to make of the inclusion of Danny Cummins, hadn't kicked a ball in over a year until last Sunday and didn't cover himself in glory. Duane at 11 is a ridiculous move, big pressure on Finnerty too, he's being thrown in the deep end. This is a day Shane Walsh needs to shine, we'll see. I'd hope we'd see Comer and Daly on the subs bench. Daly led the come back against Mayo in the FBD.

He is injured though. Didn't play for NUIG on Wednesday.

Presumably McDaid is still carrying that hamstring injury he picked up last weekend also.

[Gael85]

Why not give Cunningham a go in the corner and move Shane Walsh to 11? I mean you probably learn more from that than sticking more defenders up front.

Is that the lad who played soccer with Galway Utd?

[Duine Eile]

That's him.

Isn't it great to see a panel announcement rather than a team announcement, we're always being told it's a panel game, name your panel then managers!

Well you have to name your 26 by Wednesday or you're fined.

[Itchy]

Listen cavan are in with a shout but Galway are still favourites and it's a midfield they could win this game. Clarke won't play there, so you'll have Thomas galligan and argue who are untested at this level.

[Westside]

Cavan have a puncher's chance here but not much more. Gearoid is a massive loss. We have players who aren't proven at this level, our bench is inexperienced and Galway have been operating at a level we haven't gotten close to in years.

That said, happy with the team as named. If they gel well together I expect them to give a decent account of themselves

[giveballaghback]

Im hearing Andy Moran is starting for the rhubarbs this evening, good to see them giving youth a chance

No surprise if that happens. Probably would have started Barrett,McLoughlin,O'Connor if they were available and fit to start also. Horan laying down a marker that Mayo are taking the league very serious this year.

It'll be taken as serious by him as he took the FBD! This time of the year is all about getting back from injury or not getting injured in the first place!

FBD line ups were half strength and tonight is close to championship starting team. Now can be debated is there a need to be starting so many seasoned campaigners at this time of year with loads of mileage on the clock but as i said in page 1 of this thread time is running out for the older players to win national title.

[giveballaghback]

So if Mayo dont win a competition they are not taking it seriously, taking that into account what competitions have they taken seriously these last few years
