I was invested in that Mayo win almost as much as I would have been had it been my own county. It was nervier than it needed to be but with all the psychological baggage, that was understandable. For once the gods were with them.

Agree 100%

He's having another go here. 👀

Holy Moley, what a race

Can Pogacar win this.

Galway weren't allowed to show up yesterday.

They got no space to work the ball through, coupled by the intensity of the Limerick tackling they spilled a fierce amount of ball, I'd like to see the turnover count, it'll be hugely in Limericks favour.

Galway will learn a lot from this experience and will probably get back to an AI semi-final in 2027 to see if they have kicked on.
Galway probably exceeded their expectations for the year by getting to the final, the next step is a big one though.

From memory 40 turnovers and they scored 1-17 from them I think, some stats if correct

Meanwhile----

Two Romanian teenagers who were accused of attempting to rape a schoolgirl in County Antrim are to have the charges withdrawn.

The boys, aged 14 and 15, have been held in custody since the alleged assault on 7 June which led to sustained racially-motivated riots in Ballymena during the summer.

At Belfast Youth Court on Friday, the Public Prosecution Service was granted permission to end criminal proceedings due to "significant evidential developments".

The teenagers will now be released from the juvenile detention centre where they have been held for more than five months.

its an interesting development and will it come out what the "significant evidential developments" are?

Ingerland got tanked in the first test in the Ashes, so full of it after bowling the Ozzies out for 132 in the first innings. They collapse again and Head hammers a 69 ball century to cruze home. All over in two days.

Will the punters who bought tickets for the other three days get refunded or is it you pays your money you takes your chance.
