Good to see a Longfordman get his hands finally on Sam Maguire in Croke Park yesterday 

Shame that we can provide officials galore (I suspect the umpires in the minor match were Longford men so apologies for one's clownish actions as regards the Galway 'point') but not the players.

Gooch up there with the best I've seen playing - Keavney, Sheehey, Egan, Matt Connor, Bernard Flynn.

A class act and a hero to young fellas everywhere.

Compare him to the soccer and rugby metrosexuals and you will understand why thy the GAA is the our premier sporting organisation.

Cork were muck - they know that - they will be back stronger next year.

However Kerry will simply up-the-ante and are shoo-ins for a 3-in-the-row

George Hook has gone nuclear on Newstalk 106.

Shocking performance and I would not have been sad had Georgia had won.

Apologies if it was said here already but England did well to get 'Nil'

They were pants.

SA were having a laugh at the end.

North Longford (the area, not the poster) will not do a clean sweep of titles this year as the Junior final is between Eggistown and Ardagh.

This the the curtain raiser for Mullinyarta v Kayna.

As I work in that area please believe me.

Yes basically.

That's a bruising encounter to be sure. Georgians going all out and they could snake a win here.

A vote of confidence from me is hardly a kiss of death. I am sure the Colmcilles and the Swampies are a-quiver as to who Shamrock Shore is fancying.

Pass on best wishes to Billys Slippers who lines out for the Aughnacliffe men.

Auld Shore is in your corner as well - I know that may sting but he told me the 'Richie Culhane' story and I'll relate it, off-line, at some stage.

Fair play OMS. I missed the opportunity to tune in cos I was off ceili-ing, as we used to say in Longford (i.e. out visiting)

Dromard have some heavy guns in this year on the training side but I fancy Colmcille to win the Connolly Cup for the first time since the 50s and I know that the one team they'd want to beat in the final is Dromard. Iran and Iraq, North and South Korea, Falls and Shankill are minor compared to Dromard and Colmcille.

Good luck to Mullinyarta in the Intermediate final agin Kayna who beat Carrickedmond this weekend.

What class of a masochist are u?

Brutal stuff I believe and I wish Colmcille all the best in the final.

WTF is Jack O'Connor doing around Pearse Park? Perhaps eyeing Luke's job. After all - it's a step above the Kerry one 

Shocking stuff. Almost made the soccer boys look good.

I spose the only way is up but bear in mind Tunisia beat Namibia in the pre-qualifiers.

Tu-fuckin-nisia!

Anyone fancy the Connollys agin Dromard?

I fancy a shock - I think it's the Connolly's year.

Setanta Ireland wasn't bad.

Neil Francis, Matt Williams (remind me?) and Kieran Fitzgerald in the studio. They had Iddy on after talking the usual high falutin stuff about 'gain lines' etc.

That's Ireland goosed.

Pre-qualifying agin San Marion for 2011 looms
