I only backed them to help finance drowning my sorrows , it's a win win of sorts , I'll frame the docket if they don't pull it off .

[Both teams probably threw away any chance of getting to the AI final last Sunday given the road left to travel]

Both teams probably threw away any chance of getting to the AI final last Sunday given the road left to travel now, hard to know which was the worse butchering of the prime position each team was in to top their groups, Mayo's probably a more spectacular collapse but Galway's just as bad really given the context.

we got the worst team out of the hat anyway, Mayo are a really good team and Galway are in serious bother with the injury situation.
If Comer and Kelly are unavailable I don't see how Galway can get a result, they are just too important to the team, along with the underrated McHugh. If Comer plays last Sunday and I think we have the feet up this . Mayo's record in knock out matches between the two counties when it's do or die as well is formidable. Hopefully this match will see Galway making a real stand and not a 2019 like situation.
Regardless, the eternal question remains "will Galway bate Mayo?".

Wouldn't necessarily agree with this.  The winner of the game on Sunday will get good momentum for going into the quarter finals and while they will get a difficult game in quarters a win next weekend and I would expect last weekends results will be largely forgot about.  As things stand, the winner of the groups would like to avoid the winners of this one.

Not enough recovery time for Galway (assuming the favs win ) to get right for a qf against a top side . Galway had a very good chance of all Ireland glory this year but I'd be surprised if they followed through now simply because they didn't win their group .

Both comer and Kelly will line out Sunday , sin e .

It kind of stood out since start of championship Mayo were a little light and small ,Rio Mortimer looks like a lad who might come through .

Dreadful Galway performance.
The basic skills so poor today.
Easy win for Derry

Only kids so can't be too critical but realistically that's one of the worst ever displays by football team representing Galway, they didn't show up at all.

Seniors wernt all that in salthill in 2013 , least the kids have youth on their side

Still not sold out pairc Sean and them on sale a few hours now . I had a vision of tickets going for thousands on the black market such was the furore .

I hope the pubs in Carrick on Shannon didn't cancel those Buckfast orders

Well they wouldn't want to be waiting on yer bucks to invade the town .

Yet Dublin get it every time they request it .

What's the permutations for this group , Galway guaranteed top spot ?

Tommy conroy , James Carr & Ryan o donoghue might prove ya wrong someday sea food .

Be lucky if they get 5k in limerick for that

If only Louth were good little boys, turned up and let the Rhus run riot and lose by 4-20 to 1-10 football would be saved.

You're buying into this because of Roscommons tactics v Dublin were similar and highlighted in a negative manner in a lot of the commentary.  That is your right but we shall see how it all pans out , if it's Ros , Galway and Derry (which is very possible ) amongst the last four it will certainly put it to the test , if it's Dublin , Kerry and Mayo amongst the last four that's another story and a theory we can then discuss at a later date. Best of luck to ye in the championship.

They have known exactly which teams were playing each other in Round 3 and that they all had to be in neutral venues since the evening of May 14th, it's a ridiculous situation.

I was of the same line of thought but John fogarty of the examiner tweeted last night an answer to such saying HQ couldn't budge on detail for third rd games cause of tv rights and a couple of other factors, make of that what you will . ( ps I'll keep my eye out for an all Ireland final ticket for ya when the time comes )

An fhairche Abu , nah I think Galway will be off to croker where as the poor relation is off to tullamore .

Seems to be flying around that Mayo v cork is in tullamore along with dubs v Sligo . Galway v Armagh in croker with Derry match I think . Doing everything they can to give Galway an advantage in a year where they are expected to win it out anyway by many pundits .
