Doubt it, PJ has been quoted many times since the Kerry game saying the Gleeson is his number 1 goalie and basically gave Power a run out in case he was needed if Gleeson was injured. Very disrespectful towards Power I thought.

Rhubarbs and Herrins very quiet about th'oul League Final.
Is there any bit of  interest at all?

Hard get excited when the Rhubarbs are out against the bigots the week after

The unbearable lightness of being from Mayo.

Last July Galway were back in the final and pushed Kerry all the way, reviving the fear across the border that after years of futile effort, they would have to endure the Sam Maguire crossing the Shannon and bedecked with maroon and white.

"That fear is very real," Finnerty says. "I'd imagine it's still there for Mayo people after all the blood, sweat and tears that Galway could come along and pinch an All-Ireland."

It was safe as houses as long as Kerry or Dublin are in the Championship, Tradition says Galway won't beat them!

Mayo are flying

[Gael85]

Mayo are better conditioned team. This could be white wash.

[twohands!!!]

Fortunate to get away with a yellow with the way he stuck out his leg there.

[Blowitupref]

That's a bad challenge by the Mayo goalkeeper Reape. Heaney will be lucky if he's not badly injured.

26 minutes played Mayo 0-6 Galway 0-2

[twohands!!!]

Looking like it could well be one of those games where Mayo's opponents looked totally out of it early one but inevitably get back into the game in the 2nd half and it ends in a dramatic helter-skelter finale

[screenexile]

Mayo have basically stopped since that injury... very strange!!

[Blowitupref]

Mayos  first score for 24 minutes.

[Blowitupref]

Half time Galway 0-5 Mayo 0-8.

[thewobbler]

Good to see a referee who realises that even tough Aidan O'Shea is a tank, when people drag him back, it's still a foul.

[From the Bunker]

Dominance has come in waves in this match.
Like most games these days - not a great spectacle, but interesting to see how it will pan out.
