Claremorris 1-13 Castlebar 1-8.

Castlebar were awful. Ger Brady destroyed them for 25mins before Castlebar moved T Cunniffe on to him. B Moran or N Douglas didnt start. Claremorris far hungrier leaves Ballina in a precarious position.

Claremorris   4pts    +6
Ballina         2 pts     0
Castlebar     2pts     -2

Claremorris v Ballina
Castlebar v Burrishoole

Scoring average counts if all three finish on 4pts, you would fancy castlebar to win by a lot more than ballina

Anyone here anything from last nights match with cork. Heard the score was 2-14 to 10 with cork winning. Masters did not play. Canty beat big dermot, and midfield in a lot of trouble, had to move dermot out.

Handpass, he stated that since the ball bounced before it crossed the line, it nullified the handpass.

Managing an u14 team in Mayo. Two weeks ago playing a match when opposition MF soloing through, punches the ball which hops on ground and straight to the net. Ref allows goal, I shout in you cannot score a goal direct from handpass. Ref summons me towards him in the middle of field. He then says " I hate it when people involved with teams dont know the rules, go away and read a rulebook", I suggest he needs to read it, and he says he is 100% sure of the rule, he then asks for my name and threatens to report me for questioning his knowledge.  Next day I contact him in relation to an injured player, he asks did I read the rulebook, when I tell him I did and his interpretation is wrong, he still insists he is right and that he is right and has done a county final, and that I should accept it

Went to three games at weekend. Kiltimagh v Hollymount on Saturday. Standard was very poor, Young Mc Carthy in MF for Kiltimagh looks like a prospect played MF for Rice College. Shrule v Breaffy. Very exciting game with a few stand out performances. Alan Durcan was excellent for Breaffy, Trevor Mortimer stood out throughout although he did fall foul of Peter Geraghtys whistle on a few occasions. The standard was very high throughout Young Hennelly was excellent in goals for Breaffy.
Garrymore v Moy Davitts. Played in a gale, Moy Davitts 12 -02 up at HT. James Mulderrig kicked four excellent points in First Half started at FF. Garrymore FB Line tormented in First Half. Second Half - Garrymore play long ball into Anthony Cunningham and Enda Varley in FF Line, they cause all sorts of trouble for Moy Davitts. Moy Davitts play very negative passing the ball back the field all the time. Get caught with an equalising point in injury time. Varley free in last minute from 50yards on wrong side for his left foot hits the post and ball cleared. Draw a fair result.
