All Ireland Final Armagh v Galway 28 July 2024

[Gael85]

No real standout MOTM for me

McKay, Grimley, Crealey, Conaty, Conroy, Galway no 11 All had  their moments

Conaty might get it.

[Orior]

Conaty should get Man of the Match, but spare a thought for the seagull which had gobbled up a curry chip which had been vomited up the night before. The gull's lift and take-off malfunctioned for most of the first half.

I wouldn't say they were totally snuffed out. Walsh had a number of scorable free chances and missed,he didn't catch any of them right and u knew they were falling short the minute he hit it. He used to be so accurate from the ground. So not sure why he didn't try that option. It was a game were all star players were held, unknowns /lesser lights stood up more. Conroy I thought was good out of the more well known players

Conroy was one player you'd feel sorry for today. He has battled with some poor Galway teams over the years. Stuck with it through thick and thin. But there is no sentimentality in sport.

Well done Armagh. Enjoy the celebrations.
Hard luck Galway, keep it together and your day will come.

Great to see the PSNI getting into the spirit of things!

Some men get suspended in the morning, see TUV crying about it too.

[Captain Obvious]

RTE Man of the Match is Oisín Conaty well deserved for the young fella and should win young player of the year.

Conaty MOTM.

TSG Team of the Year:

Blaine Hughes

Johnny McGrath
Aaron McKay
Barry McCambridge

Dylan McHugh
Aidan Forker
Peadar Morgan

Paul Conroy
Ben Creeley

John Maher
Rian O'Neill
Oisin Conaty

Rob Finnerty

Everyone will be there or thereabouts for an All-Star but I'd say there'll be quite a few changes by the time they come around.

Delighted for my club man Conaty. Perhaps he can lead an orange march down the Garvaghy Road!

[David McKeown]

Just another two quick things.

1. Hurson had a very good game, a big improvement on his earlier performances.

2. The Galway fans are a great bunch, none of the ones near us left until after the presentation and I didn't see a single fan who didn't take the result with great dignity, not sure I could have been so magnanimous.

One stat from Colm Keys


Kieran McGeeney joins Kevin Heffernan, Billy Morgan, Tony Hanahoe,Paidi Ó Se and Brian Dooher in the era of the 'manager' to have captained/managed All-Ireland winning teams.

Call a spade a spade, Galway shit the nest.

[thewobbler]

Can anyone from Galway explain why John Daly has been a bit part player all season and didn't feature today?

Great to see the PSNI getting into the spirit of things!

Where was that?

If anything, is  this not a good thing for community/police  relations?
