Sorry I should read twice post once. Anyway the corrections are posted in the original post above, very proud of what our small club has achieved and think it might be unprecedented for any club to have this amount of provincial games (2 finals one qf) in a 3 day span.

Brilliant

Yerra, an owl B final, sure anyone can get into a ladies junior final and Ballintubber will give ye an awful hammering in the senior. Wouldn't get too carried away

MM must be gutted to get so close, can't see it happening again the next day.

From a county point of view how did Molloy, Wall and John Daly play?

Molloy was good but I've seen him better all the same, he made a few good runs forward and had one lung bursting run to get back before his man to save an open goal. Wall was marking Michael Daly for a lot of the game and did fairly well on him. That meant he didn't get forward as much as in other games. Didn't take much notice of John Daly, the way MM played nobody really stood out for th m, it was more of a solid team performance.

I didn't take that from the game at all. Molloy was his usual industrious self but perhaps lacking in overall quality, that could hold him back form being an inter-county starter. Wall was slightly disappointing, nothing majorly wrong but gave away a few frees and sloppy in possession at times. Thought Daly looked the best prospect of the 3 (youngest also). Comfortable on the ball. But hard to notice him or any other individual in that blanket MM brought

To be honest I've seen a fair bit of Corofin and Mountbellew this year and both Molloy and Wall look like better prospects at the minute, Daly is younger than them and just back from injury but for me at this moment in time they'd be ahead of him. You couldn't base anything on last Sunday it was a desperate game. Don't agree with your opinion on Molloy either, if Cathal Sweeney and Declan Kyne are inter county starters (in Galway anyway) he definitely is.

Fair enough, and I do actually agree on your last point, he's probably above their level, for all that Kyne can be slightly underrated.
