What are u sprouting sea weed
Time for talking is over time to walk the walk.

The only time I recall Syf's cocksuredness being vindicated was when Brigids won the all Ireland. The sad thing in Connacht is that all the population dynamics are with Galway. 2 people I know at home migrated from Castlerea.

Tell the truth sea food they were released from castlerea to go back live in your estate.

How's the head sea sick
What a day outside probably bit windy up ur part but that'll pass over after tomorrow
Ice cream is a melting, tar is a melting and Galway hopes are a melting.
Nearly time to get it on..

Bullshit u make ur own luck.
If u sit back and wait for luck to kick in yer at f**k all.
Good day promised as long as the rhubarbs have pitch in reasonable condition there will be
Only 1 winner and it won't be the maroon wall who may wait on the 45 in castlebar to play there managers x county next week there..

Derry have a chance Cavan are very beatable
.

Looks good on paper thought 7 point handicap extreme but if he  starts with them 6 forwards ye will easily beat it.

Seafroid cut back on those tablets biatch

If Hughes plays Sligo will win cause they can put up a big score with him
If he doesn't they are about a 1-13 team which will make it close.

Roscommon have better forwards probably 10 good forwards on ros panel
7 to 8 would walk on Galway panel and 4 probably start
I'll let ye have Walsh and comer
And if between the 2 teams if they could muster a midfield ild have Flynn no 10 so 3 from each county

There was no wind of great consequence and I thought it pissed before it fairly dry during.I'm on about the hammering syf when they only get 6 or 7 points, not last year's score fest that Harney got planted in.

Row won't play a sweeper they don't have to Galway play only a 2 man inside line, if we played the orthodox 6 forwards which will be the case ye may even drop more back which I can't see possible but I wouldn't be surprised after Sunday to see comer dropped to backs to help out
Last time I seen so many in defence was first half against Cavan 2 years ago and we kicked them off the field in end
A) cause it was a dry day and we scored with ease from range.
B) cause Cavan hadn't a clue how to play when we were ahead by 4 plus points when they eventually decided to have a go we hit them with ease on the break
I'm expecting something similar Sunday.

Very good analysis although I don't know if his right in that been extent of Galways ability.
I think there a 16 point side.
Can we outscore that
Yes but we must get a 4 or 5 point lead and get them to abandon the maroon wall or we will struggle again

There is not a more defensive team than Galway right now in the top two divisions IMHO.

I for one am delighted to see us being more defensive, for far too long it's been a case of moral victories, (Kerry in 2008) one point defeats to the likes of Antrim and Westmeath, listening to old lads lamenting and saying being defensive is not the Galway way, we have the forwards to beat anyone etc etc. That's a load of crap, football has moved on, it's a results game by any means and way now, if that means we play with 14 behind the ball but win a few games doing it then so be it. Roll on Sunday.

Lose on Sunday and you've won two league games, beaten a shot Mayo side that took ye for granted and are likely be be done for the year after the next weekend. Walsh's job will come under serious scrutiny then too. So a lot is riding on the CF for Walsh and the idea this form of football is actually gonig to get a worthwhile result. It might be best for both Roscommon and Galway in the longer run if positive football is what carries the day. Under Walsh I don't think Galway have any intention of offering positive football.

Most of these players played against each other in some of the most exciting football matches I've ever seen in any grade yet here they are with playing woeful football. Players without agency are just robots kicking a bit of cow skin around a field. No young kid picks up a football dreaming of playing the type of football that has become Galway's and a lot of Ulster's / lower division teams' brand. It's a sad state of affairs that this form of football hasn't been rooted out of senior yet.

If it's dry the next day those forwards will run at the Rossies. And the crowd can sense when Galway football is rolling. They know it when they see it. KW learnt a lot with Sligo. The team is turning into something decent. Like a dog lying in a corner
They will bite you and never warn you
Look out
They'll tear your insides out

I hope to god that dog comes out to play all I seen Sunday was a dog so afraid  he wasn't allowed off the leash in case he would run off and not come back.

Liam McHale on Newstalk laying all the blame on Galway for the boring encounter 
Perfectly right 10 minutes into the second half level with a gale on there asses and they decide to put a maroon wall on there 45 and try and hit us on the counter
What on gods earth was Walsh thinking.
I genuinely believed we would be beaten by 8 points at least 10 into the second half.
He let us off the hook thanks, cause now it's time to concentrate on our own game and forget about the rubbish Walsh sets up.
