Both teams named already.

I'd be surprised if that Galway team started.

I think Mayo will dominate the middle third of the field, although Keegan is obviously a huge loss.
Would not put too much stock in Galway's league campaign.
When it mattered on the big day, they struggled badly against a 14 man Dublin team.
They're full of energy and enthusiasm but they are not battle-hardened like Mayo.
It'll be another year at least before they are ready for the big boys.

Surely to Christ Cafferkey and Coen aren't starting.

Larryin89 will have the real team.
He always has the inside track.

mouview · May 10, 2018, 01:52:32 PM

As named, Galway team 5-9 is dreadful. Flynn nor GOD haven't started a game all year. HB line will collapse.

With cliches like that you might be in for a punditry gig on The Sunday Game.

My first thought as well haha. Anyway there'll be changes aplenty on the day I'm sure.

Not over enthused with that Galway side as they are missing a handful of their best players IMO. That said who actually thinks that side will line out as selected? Doubtful I'd say.
