Tír Conall fairly out it up to Clann but best team pulled through on the end.
Hopefully this game will have knocked the cobwebs of C na nG and help them to give Corofin a game next Sunday.
Is Paul Goggins the best Rossie manager on the planet at present?

Hard luck Tourlestrane. Had a sneaky feeling for them today but just wasn't to be.

Big opportunity missed. Unfortunately started without a few players (L Gaughan and Surlis) and then G Gaughan got injured early on. Ballintubber are very ordinary. How on earth did they beat Castlebar? Diarmuid OConnor carried them over the line. Cillian was anonymous from play,  McIntyre won that duel easily. Harsh sending off helped them keep possesion of the ball for large portions of the last 15 minutes and bore to death those in attendance.

Ian Burke is out injured for the next few weeks. Won't hurt their chances.

There are a side that won 3 in a row county titles, 2 recent Connacht titles and reached 2 All Ireland finals. Time that you look up on the definition of very average.

Castlebar are very average , tubber are average !!

I really don't know how you can tell either way , I thought tubber were magnificent in county final , diarmuid and cillian the second day were brilliant.

If they get over the game next week , they will be no pushover for the winners of other semi ,you'd imagine  .  Time will tell but to write them off would be foolish imo
Walk-in down mchale rd , sun out, summers day , game day . That's all .

I wouldn't imagine the previous 45 minutes were particularly thrilling to be fair.

Pity for Tourlestrane to lose out so narrowly, at least Easkey and (grumbles) SG got wins, both should be in with a shout in their respective semis next weekend.

If the mouth on the sideline masquerading as co-manager could have got a few supporters behind the ball as well as the 15 he had there,I'm sure he would have!.There is the cause of your borefest-right there!.

The final will be Corofin and Ballintober . I expect the Galway boys to do the business

I'd expect youd nearly back your house on it , surely a very average side could never put it up to the likes of corofin .

No I wouldn't put my house on it but I'd expect Corofin to win it . But first it's Clann Na Gael next week .
