Will be the expected result based on the players available to us right now.  Very poor overall.

FT Dublin 1-15 Galway 0-7. The tribesmen fell away badly in the 2nd half.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Some game from Costello. Dublin a different beast inside CP. Annoying how few mistakes they make when you see our own lads making crazy passes or trying low percentage shots. Dublin decision making is usually top class. They are as defensive as anyone when they want to be though but counter attack very efficiently.

0-7 wont win many games needless to say.

These things come in cycles. Galway just have to hang around until this Dublin cycle finishes.

Can't watch it anymore, just switched to hurling.
Football is in a very sad state, very low entertainment value....

Unless you have a dog in the fight, football is a very hard watch alright.

Did the same as Sligo.
Nearly impossible to watch a game as a neutral any more.

Big crowd of 14,502. The Dubs were out in numbers tonight! Big travelling support from Galway as well.

Division One football is where it is at. And the numbers prove it!

I thought all lockouts had to land outside the 50 yard line?  The short kick outs are terrible, put it out past the 50 and at least let there be a chance of the other team getting the ball.  Sorry I don't mean to start another rant on the demise of football but it is depressing.
I used to be indecisive but now I'm not too sure.

Poor turn out for Croker.
Could have played it in Parnell Park.
Sligo -that requiremt for kick outs to go beyond the 45 was dropped at an early stage.

Yeah, the spring series has lost its appeal.

I presume that attendance was for the 3 games played in Croke Park

Dublin attendances have been on the slide, bar the All Ireland  final last year the crowds not as big previous years.
There wasn't going to be a big tonight, with the Rugby only finishing a while before and only beginning of February.
Dublin bring good crowds to away games. The supporters possibly bored of Croke Park, knowing Dublin will stroll to a win. After so many Leinster and League titles

Whatever team you have out you should be able to get more than two scores in a half. Score difference could be the difference between staying up and relegation so not a good night at all for Galway, another very tough match coming up next weekend.

Cooke and McDaid probably Galway's two best players in the first half. McDaid off injured at half time and Cooke was absolutely bollocksed not long after playing 3 games in 6 days. 

Not his fault they lost but Bhreathnach seems involved in too many dodgy goals for my tastes.
