Thanks blackmamba, glad he wont miss game, if Galway get past Leitrim should be a cracker.

He's a doubt for that game anyways.

Ye naive guys and girls. Follow the pattern. Rossies will win as its inevitable.

Although the rosssies are confident , none are going on like you , I suspect you are indeed a troll now .
Getting back on topic. I see Kevin Walsh is starting to play silly beggars on Mayo even though he's not even beaten Leitrim yet.

Surprised to see Donoghue in goal seeing as he played for the junior team last week, the goalkeeping musical chairs continues!

[magpie seanie]

He wouldn't change the keeper for Sligo no matter what when he managed us!

[Rossfan]

Might drop in to Páirc Sheáin Sunday if the day is decent.
Galway by 8 pulling up I fear.

O Donoghue would have been playing in goal against NY but for illness.
Goalkeeper is a big weakness in this squad

It is indeed, syf and if he's half as good as his father, he'll be some man to have on your side, any side.
I always felt he was holding something back and not playing to the full limits of his ability, if you can follow me. Aye, it could be an interesting year for Connacht football.
(Bejaysus, if Creggar turns it on as well, there will be no stopping the mighty Rossies at all, at all.)

I think we have a good chance against Roscommon, they have been blown by all and sundry and I really think they are nowhere near the team they/others believe them to be. Sligo had a strong end to the league and got some good results at the close of the league so hopefully they can bring that with them. My one worry would be around the middle of the pitch, we have probably the smallest team size wise in the country and if Roscommon line Shine and Kilbride in the full forward line we would have problems there as we don't really have a good defender apart from McDonnell who is still learning his trade there. The two young lads did well at midfield towards the end but they are not midfielders by trade and I think in the heat of the championship this will become apparent.

The other options are very uninspiring, Gilmartin has had his chances and not really done much with them. Is Kilcullen still on the panel, I don't think he is county level? How is Tony Taylor doing these days, any chance he may return to the county fold? Another player who had his chances and didn't really grasp them but always felt he was our best option there which probably says something about our midfield in recent years! The team I would go with

Devaney
Donovan McDonnell Martyn
Cawley Egan Flanagan
Hughes Muprhy Breheny
Ewing Breheny Davey
Marren Kelly

The half back lines and half forward lines are really lacking in physicality but sadly that's the best we've got.

[Syferus]

They have no Cake or Francie or Frankie or Seamie to lead the lines in fairness..

[sligoman]

Funny you bring that up here after I sent you running for the hills in the other thread.

Maybe I just didn't want to involve myself in the absurdity.

Sligoman, was chatting to James kilcullen a few weeks ago and he's going to be out for a good while I'm afraid .

[magpie seanie]

Welcome Sligoman - I think you'll have a bit of fun here.
