Only a week to go and this is a huge test of Galway imo. If they manage to put it up to Kerry in a champo game in Croker I'll start to believe they have what their teams have lacked in the last few years. I think the Super 8s will benefit Galway because they'll get a champo game in Croker that isn't do or die.
You can forget about Sean Cavanagh as far as he's a man!

Galway have it all to prove.

Their Connacht title win can now be put in perspective. They laboured past a limited Roscommon team and a Mayo team on its last legs who were down to 14 men for most of the and missing a few key players with injury.

They have big question marks in defence, I think if you stop Comer you go a long way to stopping Galway. Shane Walsh was brilliant the last day out but he's not dependable.

In saying that they're facing a Kerry side who also have it all to prove.

A lot depends on Kerry imo. They have been struggling under Dub hegemony.

If they are good enough they will win.
And when our lads are good they can be very good.
I don't mind as long as they are going in the right direction.
I'd be happy with a Sam down the road.

Very low standards given your critical obsession with Tyrone.

If Galway show up, play well and have cut at them I'll be happy enough, see where that takes us, if Kerry are as great as its made out then even a really good performance mightn't be enough.
What can't be accepted is a repeat of last year's performance against Kerry which was a disgrace, beaten before they walked on the pitch, if that happens again then whatever brickbats are thrown at Galway will be deserved.
The fact that this is not a "win or go home" match will help the Galway lads mentally I think.

Tyrone is a source of endless laughs.
It deserves its own TV show.

You're scared out of your wits to put some expectations towards your own county. You can't keep using Tyrone as a vessel of escapism.
