Are Laois on a roll now ? Sounds like a great match
Laois 2.16 Ros 0.15

Rudi

2.16 to 0.15 Laois lead, no great surprise . Laois have always managed to stay in div 2.

Roscommon galacticos clearly had the wrong studs in, its the only way they could get hammered :)

Down 1-17 Galway 1-16

Galway threw it away really. 6 points up at half-time. 4 up inside the last 6 or 7 minutes. Lost it deep into injury time.

Anyone championing Roscommon or John Evans needs their heads examined. Same old shite, absolutely clueless. As bad a performance as the last 5/6 yrs or 20/25 years being honest. Lateral hand passing, senan Kilbride spening his time in our half, no one wining the breaks and backs who cannot tackle and one paced.

It's one game. No need for the childish sniping when every team has lost - we're in as good a position as anyone, bar (ironically) the team we beat.

All any team in D2 can do is focus on next weekend.

Our half back line and midfield are a worry. Fullbacks had a bad day. Hate to see class like Kilbride in the half back line. Hopefully we get a reaction like the down game against Kildare. This division is going to be extremely tight. I hope we don't revert to parking the bus like we did against Armagh.

WTF was there a strong wind in Newry?

Great win today for Laois. A huge improvement from the Cavan match and a well deserved two points for us.

My point is it's not 1 game. It's the same as the past 100 games. Nothing childish. We have hardly beaten anyone of note in the last number of years. Your blind optimism is fine but the reality is we are clueless in possession no support for the man with the ball and wrong opinions taken all over the pitch. I don't blame the players there are enough decent players to be competitive but we are tactically woeful

7 teams within 2 points of each other barring the games in hand.

i've never understood the hype surrounding Roscommon personally.

When was the last notable championship win at senior level? Must be pre 2007

Strong wind out there today alright but as the Down fans said themselves while exiting after the match, "we played our get out of jail free card today". 
Galway only have themselves to blame, the better team throughout, the Down goalkeeper was their MOTM by a mile and if Galway were ruthless enough we would have won the match comfortably, while we got an extra point in Mullingar in a match that a draw would have been the fairest result, Down didn't really merit even a share of the points much less the win, best of luck to them however, Galway's demise was entirely of our own construction and if you can't take your chances when on top you can't complain too much about losing.
