Galway club Football and Hurling thread

[GalwayBayBoy]

The old thread seems not to have survived the transfer so might as well start a new one.

Hurling championship is as follows

Kinvara v Mullagh or Kiltormer
Loughrea v Beagh or Athenry
Portumna v Clarinbridge or Craughwell
Gort v Liam Mellowes or Castlegar

Don't have the latest on the football in front of me so if anyone has it post it up.

When ane where are tix for Galway v Clare match on sale? I think this will be a defining match for Galway, their first 'real' test! Any thoughts on the team that Ger has picked for this weekend's Laois match?

As you sure this is the team? Heard it wasn't being picked until tonight..

[upfordematch]

That's what I heard anyways! I think Ger is still in 'trying out' mode. Come quarter final or even match v Clare , it could be very different.
Anyone know anything about tix for the Banner Bash?

[MaroonAndWhite]

The Barnaderg boys haven't gone away ya know and would love a cut at the townies  Well done to Milltown.....big scalp last night...... if they can get a decentdraw for quarters they could go a long way

[Duine Eile]

Shush MaroonAndWhite, we're coming along nicely, there's even a fella on the Galway Meath thread saying we haven't a hope this year, it's between Caltra and Salthill. Wouldn't be convinced about Caltra, saw a bit of their match yesterday and they weren't that impressive, completely reliant on Mike Meehan.Very beatable, if Carraore could score at all they had the game won. Yeah big game from Milltown but they usually have one big match a year, yesterday could have been it, time will tell!

[MaroonAndWhite]

So now we dont have to worry about washing the maroon jerseys for the rest of the year, when will we be gettin down the brass tacks?
I assume the draw for q-finals will be next week?

[Duine Eile]

According to Ollie Turner this evening there could be league games next weekend, not so sure about the championship though, heard stories that there mightn't be another round until the end of August because of the races and the bank holiday weekend, don't know how reliable the source was though so who knows really!The draw for the quarters has to be made yet also, sometime this week or next week probably. Hopefully the quarter finals will be sometime soon, Nicky Joyce is in a great vein of  form!

[GaillimhIarthair]

The championship quarter finals will be on the weekend of 8/9 Sept.  The draw will be made the week after the races according to OT on GBFM this morning.  Not too sure about the league, but I think there is a full round of fixtures this weekend coming.............
