I was told Co Board said to manager that Ros game didn't matter and suggested he give the panel a run out.
He refused point blank as he wanted to beat Roscommon.
Don't know how reliable that is though.
Anyway Congrats to the Rhubarbs and good luck to both Connacht teams in AI series.
I believe Leinster Final  is Kildare v Dublin tomorrow.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Yeah, very strong and direct. What club?

Morrin? Ballina.

Looked v good tonight, pity he's from ballina mind you  ;D

You know as well as I do when Ballina lads are good they are usually very good! Lol! I suspect he may be good enough to go the rugby road though. Thornton was very good too and Frank is the real deal but has had injuries lately and we've yet to see the best of him. Callinan would be a boost if he can get back to fitness and the age again next year.

Galway have been really hyped up due to the results in the John Kerins competiton, Galway never seems to wear the favourites tag well.

I only saw this bunch once at minor level against Cavan and they were poor, lets hope they live up to the expectation.

Their best player by far at minor (2017)  was Evan Murphy who is out with a long term injury , but 2 years is a long time at that age i suppose. Tonight is the test,  the pre-season stuff they won a lot of games in doesn't prove much.

They hammered this Mayo team by 13 points at minor in 2017 albeit Evan Murphy is a substantial loss since then but Matthew Tierney was only a sub that day and has really blossomed since. A lot of positional changes on the Mayo side since 2017 so it'll be a lot tighter tonight I imagine.

Yeah I think this Galway team is way overhyped.
They won a pre season tournament but the main reason is the fact that Padraic Joyce is the manager!
Mayo at 2/1 is a serious price.
It's a very different Mayo side to minor two years ago.

What happened to Evan Murphy's try out with Galway United, was it cut short due to injury? both have 8 same starters by my count from that minor match.  Daniel Kenny who i recall was big physical lad scored two goals in that match is he still playing football?  I think Tierney was starter Galway U17 team that year.

Not sure. I definitely saw him pictured in Galway United gear at some stage last year but then he got a bad injury playing for Salthill last August. No sign of him since.

I heard he's transferring to Mayo - the heart wasn't in it with Galway...

It was the Galway United u19s he was with I think.
Not sure what the story is with his injury now.

Tierney did play U17 that year, he's underage for the 20's again next year,

As far as i know he was playing some games with Galway Utd (Centre back i believe)  and missed some of the club championship around this time last year,  then came back for the quarterfinal and very unfortunately picked up a bad injury.

he did his cruciate, a big loss for Galway, i think he would of thrived under the management of P Joyce
