Mayo v Kildare, Round 3B Football Qualifier July 16, 2016

[From the Bunker]

have Cashelbar no forward  that can score? Ye should be using the road less travelled to find 2 forwards.

Castlebar are/were a collection of evenly spread decent footballers. Unlike Ballintubber/Breaffy they have no outstanding stars, but they do have a decent spread of good to very good players. Ballintubber/Breaffy have more a mixture of players at both end of the scale. The AI Club championship is a hindrance to an (new) inter-county Manager. Players are not available until April. Chances to see players firstly in the FBD (where there's no pressure on results and experienced players are resting) and to a lesser extent in the National League are gone.

thanks
Could they not get a forward to be a Ronan o gara in that Wales match. Someone else gets the possession and he kicks it over . They do not have enough scorers

That is the Myth! Look at our stats the last couple of years! The real issue has been elsewhere on the pitch! Rochford is trying to address this problem. But in doing so, has to do a huge amount of tinkering!

Kildare make 2 changes: Ciaran Fitzpatrick in for Peter Kelly who was poor before being hooked against Offaly but Fitzpatrick was the one who got most destroyed against Kerry last year and is inconsistent too.
Eoin O'Flaherty is in for Adam Tyrell, different type of player and if he plays with confidence is better. Lack a reliable left footed free taker now though.

The last time Kildare beat Mayo in the championship, there was a coup in Turkey the week before....

I had a hotel booked but had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances, never been to Castlebar so was looking forward to seeing somewhere different. Sky sports in the local will do instead.

I'll be there. Where should we park th'oul Land Rovers?

Well it was a huge problem in the first Dublin game last year, Mayo missed so many chances to score points that you'd expect a county player to convert; Think there was one period in the 2nd half where Mayo hit 5 wides or dropped the ball into Cluxton in a 5 minute period.

I've always considered Mayo the most attacking top team especially under Horan, always thought he played like this to compensate for his lack of quality in the forward line in comparison to the other top teams whilst he had no such issues individually in defence.

[twohands!!!]

Does COC ever contribute many scores from play? Or is he a better version of Maurice Sheridan ?

A very big part of the reason Mayo are having a poor championship is because COC is having a poor championship.
In the three championship games Mayo have played this year he has got 1 point from play.
He is by far and away the most important player Mayo have and unless his form turns around, Mayo aren't going to be at the business end of the summer.

Are you bringing the 162 - I took the yacht down the south of France so missing Saturday's game. One of the staff is setting up GAAGO I think. A performance Saturday and a win Sunday would be a good weekenday.  High scoring game Mayo to win by 5 and push on to win the All-Ireland.

You'll get to taste the intimidation of a large partisan Mayo crowd at McHale Park. As my wife (Leinster woman) says, ye are pure C()nts at home!
