Yeah, the Gunner Boys were reading to many Daily Sun's about how great there B side was before the season got serious. No medals are handed out in January. Still have a talented bunch, but needed a reality check. Beating two slapped together L'pool sides does not make you great. In fact beating two unslapped together L'pool sides side only ranks average. They are one for the future, but Leeds will tell you how that can fall apart!

Cork's Jack Lynch 5 AI in a row mixing Football and Hurling. Other players were good at one decipline but Jack was good at Gaelic Games!

Cricket is here in Mayo! The Mall (Green) in Castlebar is supposed to be a cricket ground, sanctioned by Landlord Lucan. There was a (Makeshift) team there not so long ago (if still there). Also Ballyhaunis had a nifty Cricket team a few years ago winning National titles.....I think!

gaa.ie



"If we can win Connacht then we can start planning every game after that because it's only three games and you're in an All-Ireland final again.

Mort must be expecting another draw this year in the Quarters or semi final if Mayo win a Connacht title.

Yeah, realise that topic has been done but has poll been done? Also there is a drift of people that come and go as well as constantly stay on this board. Just was interested to see where (in Numbers) the representation is from. I know that from reading (most) posts where most are from but the poll helps to show the demographic interest.

Still alot of counties with no representatives

 

I just throw this to the front of the queue every week or so to see what is the representative layout of the discussion board.  Any area of the world left out, i'll add you in. I started out with counties that compete in AI. But i will add in for out side that zone!

Matt Connor was Magic! One man show really, up front. Johnny Mooney was mighty in the air and clever, but not great in front of the posts. The game last night showed how kerry (with some fine Players) evolved the game into a thinking mans game. The old v the new. Out the door went the catch a kick (in hope of finding a player). The only high balls that were kicked in by kerry were to the Bomber. Support play, Passing the ball to the runner etc. This has to be admired and is often belittled. The hand pass goal was embarrassing to watch, now there was a basketball skill if ever you seen one and thankfully gone. A great Kerry team, and if you were lucky enough to have been around when they were strutting their skills you will have seen the best set of players ever! God they were so good that i remember a time when we thought they would never go away. They were the Steve Davis of Gaelic Football!

Looks like there are plenty of takers for Mayo! Nothing wors than Mayo Holding the favourites tag heading into Pearse Stadium.......Tail legs between are words that come to mind!

Anybody else want to be added?

Are people hoping cork will win or thinking cork will win?

Donegal and Mayo Had similar Ghosts to banish last weekend. Donegal handed Cork an AI semi final last year. Even Morgan in his post match interview said so and with another tie with Kerry to come he looked as if he would have been happy with his Munster title and a narrow loss to an ULSTER team. Mayo, well we all know that annual story. Anyway With the divisional changes who ever comes out with the points out of this tie will have the balls of the work done to secure league status and will be licking their lips at possible League KO later.

Sound dim whitty point taken!

Ah Shitty or is that dim whitty! I see you are back with your usual brand of abuse. Look it's just fun!
