Anyone wanna hazard a guess at the Tyrone team Mickey will name tomorrow night?
Will we see many young players like Mulgrew, Lee Brennan, Cassidy at CB?
Wonder when was the last time the team didn't have a Cavananagh in it?

Very difficult to pick the team. O'Neill did nets the last day so you'd think Morgan will start this one. Full back line is very hard to call. Mcrory mcnamee mccarron have been regulars there past few years but he's bound to try something knew. Mckernan could well be the one to come in. McCann and hampsey very likely to start at half back. Brennan or McLaughlin could get other place if he pushed harte up to forwards.

Based on the McKenna cup McShane and McNulty did much better together than the other pairing so they may get a go.

I think burns Donnelly Sludden harte and Bradley all likely to get a go in forwards if fit. Mcaliskey or O'Neill most likely to take the other spot. From the two games I saw him play in McKenna cup lee Brennan didn't offer enough to suggest he should be starting here.

Below is a piece taken from an interview with galways new great hope in the forwards padraic cunningham.he had been part of all Ireland winners u21 2013
It sounds to me they are going to do a roscommon from 2 yrs ago and go all out to try and stay in division 1.

"Then speculation arose and there were talks with the Galway county board – they sat me down and told this is a big year, that they really want to push on and make a Division 1 challenge, to be there or thereabouts.

I hope it works out !!!

I don't think he was anywhere near the 2013 team, much too young, he'd have been Ted Webb age group then.
He only turned 21 in 2017 so I think he would have been part of the U21 squad last year if available alright and not playing for Galway Utd.
His clubman on here can correct me if I'm out on any of that.

Correct AFA. He only turned 21 two months ago.
He was on the Galway minor panel in 2013 but didn't see any game time in their one championship game that year.
Has been unavailable for county football (and the vast majority of club action too) in the meantime up until now.
He's only started one single adult club championship game for his club - an inter quarter final in 2014.

Apologies, wrong "padraig cunningham".
I  hope this younger padraig reaches his potential.
Tuam stadium to be checked out today to see if pitch going to be playable,could there still be a double header in Pearse stadium?

Monaghan and Donegal presumably?
Yes. But Tyrone were filleted last year too. Any time Kilkenny delivered such a lesson to Galway the year after was not good
As filleted as Dublin were after their championship defeats to Kerry and Tyrone in 2008,2009. Tyrone are a mainly young side that should only improve on the progress already made. Currently an established Div one team that regularly reach the last 4 of the championship something i'm sure a young Galway side would like to be in the years ahead.


Tyrone have a very good young side but will be interesting to see how they go without SC. I suppose they still have some other experienced players but SC may well be a big miss. Those Dublin sides you mention had a lot of experience in them to help get other those defeats

Yeah a right pain in the ass for a group of us coming from Dublin.
Besides getting a Bus Eireann but are there any other ways to get there
Do they have special buses laid on from Galway city?

Might hire a wee cheap car between 5 of us

Game might be moved back to Salthill.

Ye're messing?
Why? Where'd you hear that?

Jay$U$ they must know they are really messing up people's plans.
I'd nearly send them a bill from my Irish Rail and Bus Eireann tickets.

Sounds like they'll make the decision today after looking at the pitch.

Why would you expect compensation for the refixing of a venue due to weather? Especially in winter months in Ireland!
