Yep Donnellan was minor in 95. I remember playing for my club against him at underage level a few times. He just had this ability to totally dominate games. He was all over the pitch. He was unbelievable back then. Not as a scoregetter as such but just as an all round footballer he was something else.
An amazing athlete.

Yeah the 98 u21 team had 5 lads who started the senior final that year - Donnellan, Joyce, Tomas Meehan, Savo & John Divilly. They really should have won that u21 AI in 98. Left the semi final against Laois behind them.
That same team were unlucky to lose to Derry in minor semi in 95.

Hopefully we can bring some of the u21s from the last few years through over the next 4-5 years

I think it's fairly obvious now that Galway will beat Mayo by 2 points, challenge matches in April are always a great indicator of form.........

You need to correct for the game on the 19th being a home fixture for Galway and the Dublin game having been an away one.

Galway by 6.

At last...My pessimism is spreading. :P

I can never remember being so unexcited about a Mayo - Galway championship match.

They should nominate a club to play us, to make it fair.
