Quote from: LosDodgers on March 25, 2024, 02:39:19 AMNeed to win next week and then hope Louth get to Leinster final which is not unlikely. Then Down will get the final All Ireland spot.What was the reasoning behind the substitution of John McGovern ? Was it solely down to his performance + black card ? He couldn't have been on the field of play for more than 15 mins so hard to make an impact in that space of time. I also see he took a knock to the head in his first involvement.
Think this team needs to be playing in All Ireland series as that's the next step in their development and will help when it comes to next seasons league.
Thoughts todays performance was excellent, very strong all round the field, made much better decisions in final third instead of playing that extra pass that we are sometimes guilty of.
Disappointing for John McGovern was the only real negative for today but I am sure we will see more of him come championship.
