Galway v donegal

[seafoid]

One of the people on the Ulster Final thread said this about Down and it applies equally to Galway :

"Lesser teams (and we are one) find it hard to keep going for 70 minutes with full energy and determination when things look bleak."

Galway don't have that experience yet.
Dara O Sé had a good article in the Irish Times :

"When it comes to the white heat of the championship, keeping cool under extreme pressure and taking the right option becomes a rare skill. Only a select few possess that.

Sometimes, it's better to just stand back, take a deep breath and do a few simple things – make a pass, make a run to try and play your way back into the game. But even that takes composure."

They are better than the last day. Donegal are also trying to build a team.

Hoping for a Donegal win but hoping is the height of it. We are a mixed bag and haven't had a good 70 mins yet. Kickoff strategy is vital as we'll probably need to play around midfield rather than through it. We need Murphy, Ryan McHugh and Frank McGlynn to put in big performances and we're in with a shout. Safe travels to all. Ádh mór orainn.

Time for the Fancy Dans to see that there is more to Championship football than beating Mayo!

Beating Mayo seems to reach the parts that other matches don't. 
Or maybe it''s like the end of Gladiator. The effort required is just too much

Galway could have a surprise starter today in Ian Burke,I suppose there is no time like the present,that would bring to four the changes from roscommon, power,Burke,Armstrong,sice/steede.
Will it be enough let's hope so!!!

Do you actually know the team or are you just taking the piss over on HS? Who loses out?

[cornetto]

Steede will lose out,will more than likely come on at some stage.

Did Burke play any league or championship match for Galway this year? Sice and Armstrong back no surprise but both aren't the future for Galway. Power is another accident waiting to happen.

Cummins  for O Curraoin the only change if the program team lines out as selected.  Flynn,Conroy midfield with Heaney a sweeper again?

[seafoid]

Maybe Galway should use under 12 tactics and get a big lad to kick the ball out.

Is this match starting at 7pm or will be delayed?

[GaillimhIarthair]

Delayed to 7.15
